'Tis the Season to Spend Money

from Season of Change (Holiday Album​!​) by Barefoot Bran

/

lyrics

Tis the season to spend money, fa la la la la la la la la
To the stores like bees to honey, fa la la la la la la la la

As they fight for that last toy, fa la la la la la la la la
That they think will bring them joy, fa la la la la la la la la

Wrap it up with bows of silver, fa la la la la la la la la
And pray that Old St. Nick delivers, fa la la la la la la la la

Their Christmas list 1000 pages, fa la la la la la la la la
As the corporate pawns work for slave wages, fa la la la la la la la la

When their stash, it hits the ceiling, fa la la la la la la la la
They start to feel that sinking feeling, fa la la la la la la la la

They fill their carts with all that stuff, fa la la la la la la la la
But in their hearts it's not enough, fa la la la la la la la la

Oh tis the season to spend money, fa la la la la la la la la
I think it's sad and rather funny, fa la la la la la la la la

That just because we can buy stuff, fa la la la la la la la la
We think we can put a price on love, fa la la la la la la la la

So stop your ceaseless, greedy shopping, fa la la la la la la la la
Ignore all those prices dropping, fa la la la la la la la la

Turn away from those Black Friday deals, fa la la la la la la la la
And remember millions go without meals, fa la la la la la la la la

So tonight try to be with friends and family, fa la la la la la la la la
Remember peace and being happy, fa la la la la la la la la

Is about giving thanks for living, fa la la la la la la la la
Cuz that's the spirit of thanksgiving, fa la la la la la la la la
