Merry Christmas!

John Lennon / Yoko Ono - Happy Christmas (War Is Over)
So this is Xmas
And what have you done?
Another year over
And a new one just begun.
And so this is Xmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young.

A very Merry Xmas
And a happy New Year,
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear.
And so this is Xmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong.
And so happy Xmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let's stop all the fight.

A very Merry Xmas
And a happy New Year,
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear.
War is over, if you want it
War is over now...   (ter)

A thousand years from now he will continue to make glad the hearts of children.
