about

A wee message by The Booze Brothers to complain on how Christmas shouldn't be shifted from it's true purpose. Living in times where we ignore our fellow brothers and sisters (or shed crocodile tears for personal gain..), we just couldn't let it be. This celebration, so dearly appreciated in our celtic lands is one of humanity and good will, and certainly not a way to lengthen that f*****g Black Friday, buying more crap to sustain our ever-growing greed of consumption.

lyrics

It all began with santa claus that nasty little prick
Who broke into our homes and played an awful trick
Shoved parcels down our throats, and made us want for more
Had us crave for things we had no use before
He went to school with Gettaz, learned his trade with Bolloré
Ate Rudolphe and his reindeers, moved to Florida bay
Subcontracted deliveries to Amazon drones
And fired his elves for smaller hands from south east Asian farms
Chorus
Christmas sucks Christmas sucks
Sucks ass all the way
Used to be kinda fun when people had their way
Christmas sucks, Christmas sucks
Sucks ass all the way
It’s become an massive fraud and it reeks of black Friday
You could have asked for Santa, to gift a homeless dude
A plane trip to Australia, so maybe he could too
Spend Christmas on a beach, with beer and rhum and sweets
Instead of freezing his ass on covid layered streets
Chorus
You could offer a Christmas meal to the Bangladeshi girls
Who made the tight new dress to show off your new pearls
Or maybe a decent salary to the Chinese kid who made
The plastic piece of shit you don’t even know how much you paid
Chorus
He used to be, kinda fun and green
Ireland absinth the Grinch and weed
Now he’s red, and kinda mean
Republican, blood and coca cola
Christmas sucks Christmas sucks
Sucks ass all the way
Used to be kinda fun when people had their way
Christmas sucks, Christmas sucks
Sucks ass all the way
It’s become an massive fraud and I hate black friday”
