Christmas

from Etnomology by Humpty Dumpty

lyrics

This is my first decent Christmas
A whole lifetime of compromises
Between the earth and the mind is
Over since you left this country
Goodbye

This year I won't give silly presents
This year I won't greet hateful people
This year I won't sing idiot songs
This year I won't make you happy
With my unhappiness

I had become known to myself
It was your job
And now unknown just calls me back
Through open roads

I'll drink to your heart full of revenge
I'll drink to your good simulations
I'll drink to your hated family
I'll drink to your dull compulsions
And thank you for leaving

I thank the world there are large spaces
To swallow you
Take possession of a corner
Dictate the code

Goodbye to our desperate travels
Goodbye to our poetics of imprisonment
Goodbye to our generalized hatred
Goodbye to our fear of humans
I'll except you
For a while

So now this shitty time of Christmas
Comes back to be what it is
At last I feel a whole lot better
To say it clear
