lyrics

On Christmas day my wife gave birth to snakes On Christmas day she gave birth to serpents
The crows fell from the sky and all the children lost an eye on Christmas day the world was ending
The angels in heaven burned themselves alive on Christmas day on Christmas day they slit their throats open
The air grew thick with arterial spray on Christmas day and I was blinded by lust

And then the bells chime out
Hallelujah
And then the choirs sing
Go fuck yourselves

The sound of footsteps on the roof told me the truth at last the time had come for Santa's blood
The gleaming in his eye and in his mouth a festering mountain of sores vile discoloured and awful
And Santa's penis his red curly penis sparkled like comets exploding in fire destroying villages and towns
And as he reached deep in his sac the room was filled with unspeakably horrible sounds of screaming on Christmas day
