"I Believe in Father Christmas"
-- Emerson, Lake and Palmer

They said there'll be snow at Christmas
They said there'll be peace on earth
But instead it just kept on raining
A veil of tears for the virgin birth.

I remember one Christmas morning
A winter's light and the distant choir
And the peal of a bell and that Christmas tree smell
Eyes full a tinsel and fire.

They sold me a dream of Christmas
They sold me a silent night
They told me a fairy story
Till I believed in the Israelite.

And I believed in Father Christmas
I looked to the sky with excited eyes
Than I woke with a yawn in the first light of dawn
And I saw him through his disguise.

I wish you a hopeful Christmas
I wish you a brave new year
All anguish, pain, and sadness
Leave your heart and let your road be clear.

They said there'd be snow at Christmas
They said there'd be peace on earth.
Hallelujah, Noel, Be it heaven or hell,
The Christmas we get we deserve.

By far, hands down, ain't no doubt about it.

"Father Christmas",  The Kinks

Kenny Wayne Sheppard does an AWESOME version of Rudolph.  First time I heard it I thought Stevie Ray Vaughn had come back to life.

There's also a heavy-metal version of Joy to The World on the "Twisted Christmas" (Bob Rivers) album that sounds great at 9 on the volume knob.
