Star light glows through the street lamps
And the angels smile on down
And everyone who’d ever been alive
Looks up from where they've been down

The weather is fierce but the home fires roar
“Please come inside”
And it’s a delight to be wrapped up tight
When the snow just might fall
And take us all back to our childhood nights

Santa works his bollocks off
After twelve months of careful planning
Parents tell lies as well as they do
And the stars shine as bright over Shannon

Where there's children, just as in Dublin
Finally resting their heads with one last look at the door
One bells rings
From one alarm clock's sake
And the babies shake the world awake
