Thank God (for Christmas)

Thank God (for Christmas) and with boisterous hymns and carols sing
Praise and swear allegiance, although he will never hear or see a thing
And let's thank Christ himself, not a son of Satan, but a son of sobriety
Who wends a way through the texts and transcripts of our faux society

Thank scribes for the God of knives and guns of the aggressive/passive
Happy holidays and Thump the runt, for his Johnson is woefully flaccid
And let the church bells ring, before the approaching sleigh bells tinkle
No(hell) and well, away from the groping hands and a fat mans' winkle
King of Heaven and Earth, to you they'll sing verily and merrily on high!
God help us now though, for the connections lost and the inkwell's dry
Our father who art in scriptures, some will starve under wings of locusts
Denizens, of this improbable world of friction, are awash in hocus pocus

And in the silent night the candles are fluttering with the passing of souls
As those abandoned and lost chase invisible dragons of apocryphal scrolls
Our Lord among us, in the smoke and mirrors, you are the unhinged lore
But we will thank God (for Christmas) and bless peace on Earth, for sure?
