Christmas 2009

Recession made Christmas harder than ever before Family’s splitting – money the core Dad’s leaving to live on the street So that young hungry mouths are able to eat That some extra cash might be in the house and children might learn what Christmas is about? But without Dad gone, roof would be lost for the bills are much higher – we can’t meet the cost No longer can the average family budget 2009, jobs lost, even working struggle to afford it Commercialism needs to stop building hopes and dreams Childern don’t understand you are busting at the seams Disappointment reigns as kids outside taunt and tease No longer we fit in we’re all on our knees Sinking. Even love has fallen apart We don’t want this Christmas just haven’t the heart! Expectation lower, depressions set in Politicians not helping the hole we’re all in Instead raising taxes they’ll crucify more and this miserable life could be at your door Will someone tell them that family should be together sharing love, life, hopes dreams whatever they weather
