Happy Non-Specific Winter Holiday

An original satirical lyric from FTM.


Happy Non-Specific Winter Holiday

It’s that festive time of year again
Kwanzaa, the birth observance and other events
Shopping facilities are challenged for space
There’s an upturned expression on many a face
Hang out red ceremonial footwear
The kinara or menorahs with peace and care
Light the candles or holiday tree
Here’s a hopeful salutation to you from me

Have a happy non-specific winter holiday
Hear the appropriate musical selections play
Observe your chosen rituals
Be kind to all individuals
Have a happy non-specific winter holiday

Please be sensitive to everyone
Jewish or Christian or those of no religion
Make certain to be careful with your words
Disharmonic greetings can cause other persons hurt
If you choose to give gifts, please be kind
No red or green wrappings, they exclude the colorblind
If you wish to spread tidings of unity
Be sure to offer this ode to each person you see

Have a happy non-specific winter holiday
Hear the appropriate musical selections play
Observe your chosen rituals
Be kind to all individuals
Have a happy non-specific winter holiday

Bridge
Well, the tofurkey’s almost ready
And the organic dressing is too
My lifestyle family unit
Offers this formal wish to you

Have a happy non-specific winter holiday
Hear the appropriate musical selections play
Practice your preferred methods
Of celebratory acceptance
Have a happy non-specific winter holiday
