*On Days Like These*
Slow and tedious rolls on a night like this
Rooms like prisons filled with family folk, sufficate, subjegate, and casterate the thing we once held so dear
Be good be quiet Santa's almost here
It's time to do this now .....now ...now come here
So blatently clear as I pick a point on the wall and stare, rememebering my 5th christmas with a tear
Small joys rapped up in toys
A Family ...round a table or xmas tree
Now presents don't mean much without them there to touch
Oh sure they're still around, but the world has beat us down
Taught only to care enough, to fill the corporate glove
A holiday perverted to take the place of Love...
