Twas a Week Before Christmas

Twas a week before Christmas I was driving through town Not a caroler was singing Nor could one be found I drove to the mall To check out the scene But people were rude Obnoxious and mean They were pushing and shoving To get that great deal This was not Christmas How can this be real Have we forgotten What Christmas is for Is there no cheer Or joy anymore I dropped to my knees And I screamed really loud Please Christmas spirit Take over this crowd Open their eyes And help them to see We're killing our Christmas How can this be It got really quiet Then I said without fear "MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE YEAR"
