lyrics

Osama never celebrated the birth of Jesus Christ
His followers have never played hockey on the ice
December isn't jolly when you spend it in the sand
There's no trees, no Santa Claus when you're in the Taliban

The sky's light up with missiles aimed at flying sleighs
Star of wonder? Silent Night? No! "Independence Day"
December isn't jolly when you spend it in the sand
There's no trees, no Santa Claus when you're in the Taliban

On Earth we pray for peace, but the Middle East is hell
No snowball's chance we'll see the end or hear the silver bells
December isn't jolly when you spend it in the sand
There's no trees, no Santa Claus, no Christmas for the Taliban
