Christmas whisks past
The unknowledgeable ghost of this
The birth and sacrifice of a Savior
Left forgotten in their midst
What could fill the winter months
Of this Communist abode?
The name of Jesus never spoken
And hence grossly unknown
Then February comes along
And devil's idols play
Dragon's faces grace the streets
Pagan drums in intense relay
It's a reason to celebrate
A reason like no other
Why celebrate a Savior's birth
When you're a mammon lover?*
So in giving "lucky money"
In hopes for more to spend
Children's hearts filling with empty joy
Of a means to an end
This holiday not based on "love"
As our Western counterparts claim
But their superstitious nature
Based on seeking lies and pain
So let's burn our incense to our ancestors**
They'll know what to do
The dead know all, don't you know?
They will know the truth
It's ironic that car accidents triple
Around this holiday time
And firecrackers constant detonating
Taking children's lives
But in the spirit of festivities
Throughout the time of Spring
Check your Chinese sign to see***
What distortion this year brings
In innocence we outsiders think
"Oh, how interesting their beliefs"
Without attributing the loss of soul
Nay, loss of humanity
The Bible says specifically
These rituals are wrong
But worshipping a dragon****
Should clinch the symbolism in this throng
Yet, they do not know, they do not care
And red and gold prevails
Literally making themselves deaf and blind
By obeying traditional tales
Lucifer, that mighty dragon
He comes here once a year
Rewards their black hearts for their worship
and whispers in their ears
"You fools, you wish for money!
I can give you more of that
You will become my army*****
And I will make your spawn grow fat"
So think twice this February
And Spring does come along
Those Chinese friends and family
Who innocently play along
They're doing the devil's bidding
With the incense that they burn
And letting him gain power
As true Christians remain unlearnt
You let witches get punished
For the evil they bring
But don't let the Chinese get away
With this as dangerous thing
As gradual acceptance comes
The entire world is doomed
Jesus help us save the blind
For we know you're coming soon
