We started in October, making our way back here
Me and Uncle Lenny try and choose a tree but Aunty Carol’s hard to please
Please, who will take this orphan tree
We’re playing rugby in the streets again
And as the fight starts in Primark like a white shark I’ll leave my mark
It’s getting scary, maybe this baby could save us all (we hope so)
It’s getting frightening, I have no idea what we are doing
Maybe this baby could save us all!
Would someone find a highlighter and fetch the Radio Times?
I don’t recall giraffes at the nativity this must be a Steiner school
Who will play the drummer boy?
We are waiting, we are waiting, we are sad and we are waiting
You said the item had been dispatched have none of you heard of a phone?
It’s getting scary, Mary and Joseph would you help us out? (we hope so)
It’s getting frightening, I have no insight into what we are doing
Maybe this baby could save us all!

The Boar's Head Carol

The boar's head in hand bear I,
Bedeck'd with bays and rosemary.
I pray you, my masters, be merry
Quot estis in convivio (As many as are in the feast)
Caput apri defero (The boar's head I offer)
Reddens laudes Domino (Giving praises to the Lord)
The boar's head, as I understand,
Is the rarest dish in all this land,
Which thus bedeck'd with a gay garland
Let us servire cantico. (Let us serve with a song)
Our steward hath provided this
In honour of the King of Bliss;
Which, on this day to be served is
In Reginensi atrio. (In the Queen's hall)

We will never know what it is they did
Three hundred years simply disappeared
They put everything on to computers
Now there’s no way for us to turn them on
We will wonder what they did each year
Myths of Christmas, the fat man and baby boy
Strange food, old songs, trees brought inside the house
It’s hard to imagine now that we live underground
We have nothing in this bunker
Hold on though we have each other
There’s no singing underground
Hold on let’s make joyful sounds
Lamps are cold and often flicker
Hold my hand we’ll light each other
Hope is stolen home is nowhere
Hold on though our love is stronger
