I really don't want much for Christmas Maybe just peace and while you're listening It couldn't hurt and might be nice If what the season brings could last beyond one silent night I really don't want much for Christmas No, hunger's high upon my wish list No fancy toys, please give instead A roof above each homeless child's head It's all so grand and jolly We deck the halls with boughs of holly Yuletide carols and cozy fires But somewhere there's no rejoicing I really don't want much for Christmas You could lose hate and I'd be blissful Make all the madness disappear That's it for what I wish No diamond-studded gifts I really don't want much this year but love I don't want much for Christmas You could lose hate and I'd be blissful Make all the madness disappear That's it for what I wish No diamond-studded gifts I really don't want much this year but love
