Can this be Christmas?
What’s all this hectic rush and fuss?
Where do all these crowds go in such a hurry?

If all the sleeping folk will wake up,
If all the lukewarm folk will get fired up,
If all the dishonest folk will confess up,
If all the disgruntled folk will cheer up,
If all the depressed folk will cheer up,
