POPCORN AND PLEASANTRIES
(LOOSELY SUNG TO THE TUNE OF "HAVE A HOLLY, JOLLY CHRISTMAS")
POPCORN AND PLEASANTRIES:
MY MANTRA FOR THE YEAR
SAY GOODBYE TO VICIOUS LIES
AND PESSIMISTIC JEERS
NO TIME FOR NEGATIVE
KEEP THINGS SHINY AND NEW
FORGIVE, FORGET, OR JUST EXILE
FAMILY SKELETONS TO THEIR ROOMS.
HAVE A HAPPY, SNAPPY SEASON
YOU’RE A BRIGHT ONE, I CAN TELL,
IT’S YOUR CHOICE TO USE YOUR VOICE
TO SKETCH A HEAVEN OR HELL.
HAVE A HAPPY, SNAPPY LIFETIME
OR IN CASE YOU DIDN’T KNOW
YOUR WORDS CAN PAINT THE WORLD YOU SEE
IN DARK TONES OR DAY-GLOW.
POPCORN AND PLEASANTRIES;
WON’T YOU JOIN WITH ME THIS YEAR
SAY WHAT YOU FEEL, IF YOU REALLY MUST
BUT SPEAK WITH LOVE, NOT FEAR.
OR TEXT WHAT YOU REALLY FEEL
BUT DON’T HIT “SEND” THIS YEAR.
