I join the band not just for Christmas cheer
I hear it have plenty Spanish woman living down here
I looking for wife, me ent have no shame
So I moving with the band, playing the game.

Merry Christmas everyone!

And I bring, yes I bring, yes I bring the gang.

Every year I does make mih barrel of rum
But this year I decide that I ent making none
I paranging hard with no liquor
And every house I hit, I drinking out the chaser.

So Merry Christmas everyone!

So I going house to house looking for mih paintbrush.

And when they strike it up, I join in with the chorus.

A Note From The Gull

Christmas blessings to all...to those who are celebrating and to those who are mourning, to those who have blessed the earth this year and to those who have harmed it, to those who have shared peace this year and to those who have brought holocausts to the innocent, to those who wish to lead and to those who must trust them, to the sick and the poor and the imprisoned and to the healthy, wealthy and free, to those who have departed this life and to the rest of us who will carry on.

Christmas blessings so that we can find the strength to continue doing good and the strength to throw down our weapons of hatred, selfishness, envy, greed, deceit, self-righteousness, hypocrisy, pride and ignorance.

Runakunap suyakuynin | Esperanza que anima | O hope of humankind,
Kallpannaqpa q'imikuynin | Y da soporte a los hombres. | And helper of the weak.
Waqyasqayta. | Oye mi oración. | Hear my prayer.

Blessed be my beautiful people

Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.
