Let's hold back the joy
maybe just for one night,
think of the poor boy
whos family have no light.

With that cocoa we feel warm,
his baby sister feeling the cold.
looks like another finacial storm,
with each day they all grow old.

Button up boy,
keep your chin up
christmas is a time of joy
here take a sip from my cup.
