The Homeless Gospel Choir - Holiday Song Lyrics

Happy Fourth of July everyone
I hope the BBQ and beer treat you right
I heard that freedom, isn't really free
That doesn't mean it's okay to kill other people
Because they come from different blood than you
And please don't think that Jesus wants you to
Kill other people cus their Muslim

Merry Christmas everyone
I hope you're all warm and cozy in your house
It's not the kids' fault that their dad went to jail
And it's not their fault there's no food in the house
And Santa Claus doesn't visit their part of town
And I heard a man once say that the last shall be first
Unless he only meant that for white Christians

Happy Easter Sunday everyone
I think you all look really great in your new shirts
I wonder if the kid that made it, got a new shirt too
And if you ever learned how to read and write
Or if he has running water in his house
And I wonder if his mom and dad are proud of his work
Or if they died working in a sweatshop
The Gap kids, Gap, or Baby Gap, Abercrombie and Fitch or American Eagle, Banana Republic or regular old fashioned JC Penny

Hey there sweetheart I got news for you
I had a talk with your dad last night
So I went out and bought you this diamond ring
It came from a slave mine in Africa
Where people don't have the choice to leave
The man in the mine, he works under gunpoint
But I bought it so that I could say I love you
And I bought so that I can say I care
And I bought it so that I can get inside your pants
And I buy everything because I'm an American
