Buy War Toys for Christmas Lyrics by Roy Zimmerman

Peacenick

0

Little Johnny Johnson wants an M-16
Sister Susie wants an Uzi and a sub-machine
Kids are making wishes and wartime strategies
Singing Happy, Happy Birthday to the Prince of Peace
Buy war toys for Christmas, have a happy holiday
Santa traded in his red cap for a green beret
Teach those happy little children to be hellcats when they play
And have a very merry military day
Janie wants the latest deadly laser gun
Little Tommy asked his mommy for his own B-1
Kids are roasting chestnuts on burning effigies
Singing Happy, Happy Birthday to the Prince of Peace
Buy war toys for Christmas, have a happy holiday
Santa knows a missile toes the line in every way
Teach those happy little children to be hellcats when they play
And have a very merry military day
We’ve all got our fingers crossed
For another Cold War frost
Sing “Oh, by golly, let’s be jolly
Deck the Holly-caust!”
Darling Danny Simpson armed his own brigade
Staged a coup and overthrew the Christmas Day parade
Kids are dropping napalm on their Christmas trees
And hiding chocolate-covered cherry bombs in a box of Sees
Buy war toys for Christmas, have a happy holiday
Santa slayed his reindeer, now he flies the Enola Gay
Teach those happy little children to be hellcats when they play
And have a very merry military day
And have a very scary military day
Singing Happy, Happy Birthday to the Prince of Peace
