Christmas Rapping

Christmas time is here once more
And you may be rapped but I'm not so sure
Cause all you get is media hype
And it's hard to sleep at night

Well the kids are wrapped cause they have seen
The toy they want on the TV screen
Yes they have seen it in living colour
If it costs too much, just mortgage my brother

Christmas rapping
We're gonna have a real good time
Christmas rapping
Every toy I want will soon be mine

Well Santa Clause is back in town
And he's big and red, and awfully round
But is he merry, I think not
Because he's dressed warm and it's stinking hot

And so the kids sit on his knee
And a photo is snapped for a major fee
Yes the kid's dreams he will fulfill
But it isn't him who pays the bill

Christmas rapping
Challenged on what I believe
Christmas rapping
I believe in Santa but not in Jesus Christ

Well the credit cards go clickety-clack
Like a train running down the track
We use credit, no cash here
And we'll pay it all back by the end of next year

There's Christmas cards and turkeys to go
TV, books and Nintendo
There's lots of sales with hype and sex
And Christmas is not spelled with an X

Xmas rapping
Credit costs and exorbitant fee
Xmas rapping
They take my money and my sanity

Well in my house is an artificial tree
With artificial snow and artificial leaves
And hundreds of presents now surround it
But and artificial family sits around it

Peace of earth, we love you lots
But only if you give us lots
I look behind the hype and bliss
There must be something more than this

Christmas rapping
Got the Christmas holiday news
Christmas rapping
But I got a feeling that I'm gonna lose

One Christmas Day so long ago
A man said to his wife, Yo,
Mary, a baby, geat, I'm glad to say
That I'm rapped in Christmas Day

Yeah God's gift is number one
He gave His one and only Son
That whosoever believes in Him
Will be forgiven of their sin

Gospel message, hear the news
Don't let the hype your mind confuse
Cause Jesus is the truth and life
And Christmas is the time to try it

Christmas rapping
He is the truth, the life, the way
Christmas rapping
Think about that on Christmas Day
