Singalong! Happy Xmas (War is Over)

It's the day after Christmas!  Boxing Day for us Canadians.  This is one reason why Canada is great.  We have a fun name for the day after Christmas so it's slightly less sad.  Of course, the name is after the fact that you spend the day boxing up all your decorations and putting them back in the basement, so... still pretty sad.  In honour of this, let's listen to the saddest Christmas song around.


HAPPY XMAS (WAR IS OVER)
by John Lennon

So this is Xmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so this is Xmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young

A very Merry Xmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

And so this is Xmas (war is over)
For weak and for strong (if you want it)
For rich and the poor ones (war is over)
The world is so wrong (if you want it)
And so happy Xmas (war is over)
For black and for white (if you want it)
For yellow and red ones (war is over)
Let's stop all the fight (now)

A very Merry Xmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

And so this is Xmas (war is over)
And what have we done (if you want it)
Another year over (war is over)
A new one just begun (if you want it)
And so happy Xmas (war is over)
We hope you have fun (if you want it)
The near and the dear one (war is over)
The old and the young (now)

A very Merry Xmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

War is over, if you want it
War is over now

Happy Xmas
