Dine they do to glutton
Drink they do also to stupor
Flamboyant are the attires
To pride and ridicule the broke
Calamities and calamities
On the road
In the home
Even the Lord's house is unspared
Sin at the brim
Spill all over
To the care of none
And the Lord watches
The yule log burns in sin
Blind to the destruction impending
Lurking just at the corner
And the Lord watches and watches.
