Do you hate Christmas? (offencive)

Recently I've been dissilusioned about christmas. I realized that Christmas has turned into a consumer nightmare and all we celebrate is the takeover of Capitalism. Jesus has turned into a con to sell more stuff.

PLEASE NOTE! I mean no disrespect to any religion, I just want to alert you that Capitalism has taken over churches.

(See "Puzzling Evidence" by Talking Heads)

Anyway, in light of this sad realization, I wrote a little song.


Quote:
ICC DAY

Everyone, can you hear
the songs in the air?
The same old lyrics
told again and again...
But what's this?
Traditional celebration
now seems a deviation
from the capitalization
that we can never miss.

On this day we tip
our hats to Christ
But for two moths we've only
talked about the price.

So this year on
Impirialist Capitalist Celebration Day
remember your last minute shopping
only twenty miles away.
Rush into ICC spirit,
Open up your wallet dearest,
Go and spead away!

Though this day comes once a year,
it's the time that we all fear,
go in debt, pack up your gear,
and keep up with the spending spree
Buy all your cousins games,
try to remember all their names,
don't get enough and endure shames.
A happy spirit sure ain't free.

So this year on
Impirialist Capitalist Celebration Day
if you don't give
make sure to pay.
Give to the poor,
who come to your door,
and let them feed the system how they may.
I think I might add more verses.

To walk the fine line between self control and self abuse.
