Christmas Woman

Christmas is the time of year
When the patrons and the
Panthers come and commandeer
Christian, put away your fuss
With the tipping of the handlers
As the pagans must

I know for a century
We were scrambling to assemble
What a man believes i know for a time I let
To believe that human kindness
Would prevail instead

Woman, have you lost your kind?
There are snakeskin stealers seething
In the afterlife
Christian in the advent house
You confess the incarnation with
The breast turned out

Have you seen the Christ the king
(Woman, have you lost your kind?)
Suckling nurseries in snakeskin in
The armored seat?
(With the breast turned out)
Christian, put away your woes
(Woman, have you lost your kind?)
Welcome grief and crime and anguish
With the happiest host (In the afterlife)

(Christmas woman, Christmas woman)
(Christmas woman, Christmas woman)
(Christmas woman, Christmas woman)
(Christmas woman, Christmas woman)

Oh, I was thinking by myself
I was remembering
Every moment by the river when
It froze last night
And in the fullness of the moon
I felt the baby kick beside me
She was grabbing happy, healthy life
(Christmas, Christmas)
I lived it out to be a soldier
I was channeling Middle Ages
(Christmas, Christmas)
I was captured by the Norsemen rite
(Christmas, Christmas)
The sign that passeth comprehending
She was tending right beside me
(Christmas, Christmas)
She was captured in the midst of men
(Christmas, Christmas)
And then it kissed me on my shoulder
All the possibilities of motion
(Christmas, Christmas)
Resting rightly, right inside of me
