So this is Christmas and what have you done
another year over and a new one just begun
and so this is Christmas I hope you have fun
the near and the dear one
the old and the young

A very merry Christmas
and a happy New Year
let's hope it's a good one without any fear

And so this is Christmas
for weak and for strong
for rich and the poor ones
the world is so wrong
and so happy Christmas
for black and for white
for yellow and red ones let's stop all the fight

A very merry Christmas
and a happy New Year
let's hope it's a good one without any fear

And so this is Christmas
and what have we done
another year over and a new one just begun
and so this is Christmas I hope you have fun
the near and the dear one
the old and the young

A very merry Christmas
and a happy New Year
let's hope it's a good one without any fear
war is over over - if you want it
war is over - now
