"Thank Christ for Christmas".......Enoch Kent 1962.

Christmas came again last year,
like the Holy bible say.
Now man must stash his cash all yaer,
because of Christmas day.

All the stores were gaily garnished,
tinsel and imitation snow.
And we look forward to Christmas day,
and hope you have the dough.

Some people say its all because,
of a boy called Jesus Christ.
And not for makin excess cash,
those people are not very nice.

Sing the praises,ring the cash up,
a saviour born to men.
He saved us all from bankrupcy,
may he soon come down again.

Nina and Frederik, Gracie Fields,
are getting in the act.
For a Christmas song sells like a bomb,
and thats a well known fact.

"Mary's boy child","Little donkey",
"Santa kisses mum".
As long as you play upon the theme,
You'll make a goodly sum.

So a Merry Christmas everyone,
Although that greetings stale.
If you dont get the gift you want,
You'll get it in the January sale.

Hallelujah line the pavements,
cram the cash desk with your pay.
Thank God for Christianity,
And roll on Christmas day.



To the tune of "Mary's boy child".........St Ake
