It's that time of the year again, when everyone is buying,
Gifts and goodies, for loved ones and friends, everyone's just giving,
The air is saturated with joy and happiness,
We're all festive-spirited and there is no sadness,
The mistletoes and streets are all lighted-up,
Our hearts, and souls are all lighted-up,
It's an exciting time of the year,
And I love it, yeah,
But as I brood over this season,
And meditate over its reason,
I couldn't help but ask:
What if everyone was Santa and Christmas was everyday?
What if everyone was Santa and Christmas was everyday?
Wouldn't we all be givers living in an always jolly day?
What if everyone was Santa and Christmas was everyday?
Wouldn't we all be in a festive mood, always giving back,
Even if it means emptying the safe and buying till we're in lack,
What if everyone was Santa and Christmas was everyday?
Wouldn't there always be smiles on children's faces?
And everyone smiling and giving back in all places?
What if everyone was Santa and Christmas was everyday?
You think about it, if everyone was Santa and Christmas was everyday,
Wouldn't we all be trying to give back to the community and the poor?
Wouldn't we all be nice and helpful to the helpless stranger at the door?
If everyone was Santa and Christmas was everyday,
Wouldn't we all be caring and thoughtful of our loved ones?
Wouldn't we all be caring and helpful to the needy ones?
'Cos it seems to me like Christmas is the only time we remember the poor,
It seems to me like Christmas is the only season we remember the helpless neighbor next door,
It seems to me like Chrsitmas is the only time some of us remember our loved ones,
It seems to me like the rest of the year is filled with so much "busyness",
That we forget the needy and less-privileged ones, and even our loved ones,
It seems to me like Chritmas is the only time of the year we remember to give back,
Even when we give back, we are selfish about it, and are always asking-what do I get back?
Let us change our views about Christmas and try to be Santa everyday and make Christmas everyday!
