The Ghosts of Xmas Past May Seem To Taunt
After Xmas many people part
The bills appear, the credit card is maxed
Divorce appeals to those with strangled hearts
Is such action foolish,will it smart?
Do you really want your true love axed?
After Xmas many people part
The ghosts of Xmas past may seem to taunt
As if from some old wardrobe they’re unpacked
Divorce may leave us all with mangled hearts
Crude hate with its afflictions hits the charts
Can’t we focus more on love than lack?
After Feasts too many people part
Unlike the worms so humble in the dirt
We have faces angry and alert
Divorce may leave the hasty with sad hearts
Forgive but if you can’t, can you forget?
We expect so much of Xmas that it hurts
After Xmas many people part
Divorce appeals, oh, cheer your strangled hearts
