Jethro Tull - Birthday Card At Christmas Lyrics
Got a birthday card at Christmas... it made me think of Jesus Christ.
It said, "I love you" in small letters. I simply had to read it twice.
Wood smoke curled from blackened chimneys. The smell of frost was in the air.
Pole star hovered in the blackness. I looked again... it wasn't there.
Sleigh bells, bearded red suit uncles. Pointy trees and angel wings.
I am the shadow in your Christmas. I am the corner of your smile.
Perfunctory in celebration. You offer content but no style.
That little baby Jesus... he got a birthday card or three.
Gold trinkets and cheap frankincense. Some penny baubles for his tree.
Have some time off for good behaviour. Forty days, give or take a few.
Hey there, sweet baby Jesus... Let's share a birthday card with you.

STILL MY GO TO CHRISTMAS MUSIC EVERY YEAR. IT'S GOT IT ALL!! GOOD SHOW JETHRO TULL. BIG FAN FOR MANY YEARS.
R.J. Bass I heard a sample by JT at a summer concert 2003 before release. I was not very hopeful. Turns out this is one of the freshest collections of Christmas songs in some time. I play it every year as I'm tasked to put lights on the tree since it came out for Christmas 2003.
Sir, please turn down your radio.
perfect album to fall to sleep by...... all year long
