Christmas Morning(Album Version)

[00:00:00] Well the banks &the schools &the post office are closed

[00:00:02] You can park where you please and you won't get towed

[00:00:06] The streets are empty &the stores are finally closed

[00:00:09] It's Christmas morning

[00:00:11] He got a tie &she got a book

[00:00:14] They weren't supposed to peek but they took a little look

[00:00:16] Tell me how long will it take for the dinner to cook

[00:00:20] It's Christmas morning

[00:00:22] There are so many presents underneath the tree

[00:00:24] A few are for you but the rest are all for me

[00:00:27] And we gotta tip the super and the doormen

[00:00:29] Can't you see It's Christmas morning

[00:00:35] Christmas morning finally has come

[00:00:38] It has meaning for each &everyone

[00:00:40] Christmas morning I cannot believe

[00:00:43] Just last night was Christmas Eve

[00:00:47] In the Rockerfeller Center the big tree is shining bright

[00:00:50] Skaters skate beneath it in the winter light

[00:00:53] Like a picture on a Christmas card everything looks right

[00:00:56] On Christmas morning

[00:00:58] And the homeless who have nothing will ask on

[00:01:00] Christmas day for us to give them something

[00:01:03] God we wish they'd go away

[00:01:04] Though there is no place for them to go

[00:01:06] They have no place to stay on Christmas morning

[00:01:10] Lying in a hospital dying in a bed with aids

[00:01:13] He deserved it I have heard it said

[00:01:16] Deck the halls iwth boughs of something

[00:01:17] Soon he will be dead on Christmas morning

[00:01:23] Christmas morning finally has come

[00:01:25] It has meaning for each &everyone

[00:01:28] Christmas morning I'm afraid to say

[00:01:31] Life goes on on Christmas morning

[00:01:35] And the Prince of peace was born on a Christmas Day

[00:01:38] In the little town of Bethlehem not so far away

[00:01:41] From where a multitude has gathered in a warlike way

[00:01:44] On Christmas morning

[00:01:47] So we watch the buildup here we go again

[00:01:49] There is sand there are camels

[00:01:51] But where are the wise men

[00:01:52] Are they in Baghdad Are they in Washington

[00:01:55] It's Christmas morning

[00:01:58] There are those who go to church they kneel down to pray

[00:02:01] For loved ones who have left to serve so far away

[00:02:04] &for a Middle Eastern baby born on that very day

[00:02:07] It's Christmas morning

[00:02:11] Christmas morning finally has come

[00:02:13] It has meaning for each &everyone

[00:02:16] Christmas morning I'm afraid to think

[00:02:19] This time we are headed to the brink

[00:02:39] A week from today we begin a brand new year

[00:02:41] Let us all be hopeful men &women of good cheer

[00:02:45] And resolve to fight against stupidity and fear

[00:02:48] It's Christmas morning

[00:02:50] And as awful as the world can be we are still alive

[00:02:53] And if we're very careful we might well survive

[00:02:56] There are cures &solutions &there is compromise

[00:02:59] Christmas morning

[00:03:02] Christmas is for children I have heard it said

[00:03:05] That's why King Herod hated the babe in the manger bed

[00:03:08] They all came to worship &adore the child instead
