Peace And Happiness

She jumps into his lap

Anticipates his words

He asked her what she wants this year

Her answer well-rehearsed

She said, when you get to my house that night

Just pass me by instead

'Cause all I really want this year is peace and happiness

Standing in the cold

A man who held a sign

Somebody tried to hand him some change

Thought it was strange that he denied

But as I pulled up closer

I saw that piece of cardboard raised

That all I really want this year is peace and happiness

Oh, so don't get me a gift

No, don't you buy me a thing

And don't you brave the traffic just for something I don't need

But I still make my Christmas list and this is all it says

That all I really want this year

Oh, all we really need this year is peace and happiness
