Happy Birthday Dear Jesus
well it’s xmas time sweet jesus
what an advertisement you are
seems like every mothers daughter 
is out driving in her car
and the streets are strewn with holly
and the stores all hired their jolly
santa claus plainclothesman
to help them push the stuff
and all in your name jesus
we buy in vain sweet jesus
i wonder if it pleases you 
to see this going on
it’s your spirit that they’ve used again
i think you been abused again
from one cross to another lord
when will it ever end
cause it’s xmas time again sweet lord
i wonder if you’re getting bored
or do you sit dejectedly
revising plagues revengefully
to visit unexpectedly
upon our lowly sins
o the irony is great my prince 
like shakespeare you’ve been better since
you died and left a lifetimes work
for us to misconstrue
your’e birthday is our birthday lord
your tree in every home
because you lived is why we give
but when you died, you died alone..
