Hank Green - Jesus Gets Nothing for Christmas lyrics

Oh boys and girls
It's that time of year again
It's time to show off all
Our generosity to our friends
We've been waiting for three
Hundred sixty four
Days in which we've been real good
And done all of our chores

But, I think that it's important that
We think of those out there
To whom we do not give presents
Even though we really care

Cause there's just one man who
Gets nothing each year
Even though he hasn't been bad
How he longs to hear Santa's reindeer
But he never has, and yeah
That makes him sad
He never has, and yeah, that makes him sad
Cause everyone thinks of Jesus on
The eve of Christmas
But no one ever thinks to
Put him on their list
So Jesus gets nothing for Christmas
Yes, Jesus gets nothing for Christmas

When he was a boy, back in Galilee
He never got presents cause
Christmas didn't exist, you see
And now that he's grown, nobody guessed
That he really wants that 24-piece
Metric drill bit set

Jesus is a carpenter
You know that that is true
And he's tired of using 2000 year old tools

Just because he's the man who
Gets nothing each year
Even though he hasn't been bad
How he longs to hear Santa's reindeer
But he never has, and yeah
That makes him sad
He never has, and yeah, that makes him sad

You know, everyone thinks of Jesus on
The eve of Christmas
But no one ever thinks to
Put him on their list
So Jesus gets nothing for Christmas
Jesus gets nothing for Christmas

All he wants is World peace
But he also really likes the look
Of that new Old Navy fleece
And yeah, he wants to end violence and war
But he also kinda wants to try
Out Grand Theft Auto IV

He gets no milk and cookies like
That fat Santa Claus does
He's the reason for the season
But he's always sad

Because he is the one man
Who gets nothing each year
Even though he hasn't been bad
How he longs to hear Santa's reindeer
But he never has, and yeah
That makes him sad
He never has, and yeah, that makes him sad

Because everyone thinks of Jesus on
The eve of Christmas
But no one ever thinks to
Put him on their list
So Jesus gets nothing for Christmas
Jesus gets nothing for Christmas

Jesus just doesn't know what to do
He doesn't want to seem
Like an ungrateful youth
And the worst part is it's his birthday too
And Jesus gets nothing for Christmas
