So here we land Scraps of Christmas in our hands Shards of what we celebrated once as girls and boys Trying to reanimate them like our lifeless childhood toys But we've grown up Families all torn asunder Irony has cornered wonder Caution hobbles joy We block our weary ears as the old carols turn to noise But some songs I'll keep I like the tunes I like the smell of pine and cloves I love the food... So if you make a Christmas card Put some glitter on it, dammit Put some glittеr on it, make it sparkle, make it shinе And if you bake a batch of cookies Put some sprinkles on it, dammit We'll worry in the new year; this is celebration time With your natal or your chosen family Turn your phone off, eat a lot, festoon a dying tree We can't have Christmas past, we can't have Christmas like the movies But we can play some games and talk awhile Watch the kids go running wild So bake a cake or pie or yams And put some sugar on it, dammit Put some sugar on it, makes the medicine go down And if you wrap a present, you should Put some glitter on it, dammit Out here things are bleak, and we could use some sparkles now The world is dark So screw the rising power bill And put those cliché colored lights up in the kitchen windowsill The world is cold So make a lot of hot spiced wine And have some patience with the kids And be just ten percent more kind The world, it costs And we've cut back a thing or two But if I overspend again, then let me overspend on you The world's unjust So tell the story once again Of how we turned the saints away How we made no room at the inn The world is wrong And we are ugly to each other Ten thousand thousand trespasses We visit on our sisters and our brothers So we take something fragile, something pretty The angel that we cannot be And hang it up where everyone can see (At least until the cat knocks down the tree) So in the rubble, find your scrap of joy And put some glitter on it, dammit Put some glitter on it, dammit 'Cause somehow we're still here If at the darkest time of year, the stars have Put some glitter on it, dammit Put some glitter on it, dammit Fight the looming fear A thousand acts of mass defiance Beauty in the face of violence Making something homely special When it's all we know to do And if I can't manage it for me I'd sparkle everything for you Some songs I'll keep I like the tunes I like the smell of spruce and snow I love seeing you
