Merry Christmas One and All

Merry Christmas one and all
I wish for you it all is white
For in this cold, dark time of year
Many die in dead of night

For Santa may be on his sleigh
Still it’s only I that dare take flight
For in the falling moonlit snow
The Christmas Reaper scythes his might

With blade in hand I slice the throats
Of any child awake in spite
Of warnings from parental ones
Be asleep before midnight

Still naïve children believe in good
Dreaming to dare invite
Believing Mr Claus will save their souls
As there grasp on life grows ever slight

Then each corpse I take upon death hill
I pile them high, my mass grave site
Crimson staining fresh packed snow
A dismembered holocaustic sight

Still on I fly to seek more prey
My sacrificial rite
For each time you hear my jingle bells
A baby angel dies from fright

Save your remorse, don’t fear for them
All are doomed for my delight
For when no children can be found
My very rules I do re-write

For no-one's safe this Christmas Eve
Evil casts on you its light
I’ll take all you sinners to my pile
And set you all alight

So rest in peace my merry men
Pray you close your eyes so tight
Merry Christmas to you one and all
And to one and all good night
