Birthday Card At Chrismas lyrics
Song information
Artist: Jethro Tull Album: The Jethro Tull Christmas Album
Lyrics
Got a birthday card at christmas: it made me think of jesus christ It said, "i love you" in small letters. I simply had to read it twice Wood smoke curled from blackened chimneys. the smell of frost was in the air Pole star hovered in the blackness. I looked again: it wasn't there
People have showered me with presents. while their minds were fixed on other things Sleigh bells, bearded red suit uncles. pointy trees and angel wings I am the shadow in your christmas. I am the corner of your smile Perfunctory in celebration. you offer content but no style
That little baby jesus: he got a birthday card or three Gold trinkets and cheap frankincense. some penny baubles for his tree Have some time off for good behaviour. forty days, give or take a few Hey there, sweet baby jesus: let's share a birthday card with you
