A Corporate Christmas Carol
Written by Charlie Reynardine and Michael G. Ronstadt
'Tis the season to be joyful,
Shall I tell you how I know?
‘Coz a corporate cola company
Very kindly told me so
It's the time for buying presents,
Lots of things that no one needs,
Made of plastic, break by new year,
But hey I teaches the children greed
So I wish you Merry Christmas,
As we sit around the fire,
A season built on borrowed credit,
Not the birth of a child
But still i wish you Merry Christmas,
I hope the season brings you joy,
It's the giving not the getting,
And the love behind the toys.
Can you hear the Christmas music
In every department store?
I just finished trick or treating,
Don't think I can take no more!
Can you see the Christmas lights there
Hanging out for all to see?
They're not there for celebrations,
They're for selling you plastic trees!
So I wish you Merry Christmas,
As we sit around the fire,
A season built on borrowed credit,
Not the birth of a child
But still i wish you Merry Christmas,
I hope the season brings you joy,
It's the giving not the getting,
And the love behind the toys.
So I wish you Merry Christmas
May the season bring you joy
The only gift you'll ever need
Is the smile of a girl or boy.
So I wish you Merry Christmas
Yes I wish you Merry Christmas
So I wish you Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to one and all
