LYRICS
Fighting for your attention
For your dollar’s collection
Fighting to take, take, take
Leaving giving in the wake

A veteran of the Christmas Wars
Putting the greedy behind bars
Better yet, take no prisoners
That can’t be dedicated followers

Playing on your emotion
But, on closer inspection
Fighting to take, take, take,
Try giving “for heaven’s sake!”

A veteran of the Christmas Wars
Your medal is to shine like the stars
Enlightening the universe for ever and ever
’till such time as God’s love ends… never!

Slaying all your religion
Raping Mary, The Virgin
Ripping the heart out of Christmas
Is war strategy for defeat… demise I surmise… alas

LYRICS
1, 2, 3, 4
1, 2, 3, for what do we dance?
1, to what do we dance?

Bark it out
Don’t be afraid
Make a sound
Be found… out

Bark it out

Don’t be afraid
You are what you made
Now, make of it what you will
Shake it… better still

1, 2, 3, 4 what are we dancing for?

Dance a suspense dance (can’t wait to anticipate)
Dance a surveillance dance (see if there’s a scene gleam)
Dance an independence dance
Dance a reverence dance
Dance to thank God we’ve got a chance to dance!

1, 2, 3, for what? 1, 2, 3, 4 what do we dance for?
Dance for what
Jump about
Electrify I. Give Watt! (see your energy)

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords – E / E less E add G
E / G / A / E

Written and recorded November 11 and 15, 2012 in West Chester, Pennsylvania. The writing of the album got started at the Veterans Memorial on Veterans Day. As I would play, the children would start marching. Several of the songs on this album marched to the beat of that drummer.

Daniel — Vocals, Guitar, Piano
