Best Answer

The lyrics belong to the song 'I Believe in Father Christmas'. The song was written by Greg Lake. Lake did not write the song as a carol but as a protest to the commercialism of Christmas. The song was recorded by Lake in 1974.

They said there'll be snow at Christmas

They said there'll be peace on earth

But instead it just kept on raining

A veil of tears for the virgin's birth

I remember one Christmas morning

A winters light and a distant choir

And the peal of a bell and that Christmas tree smell

And their eyes full of tinsel and fire

They sold me a dream of Christmas

They sold me a silent night

And they told me a fairy story

'till I believed in the israelite

And I believed in father Christmas

And I looked at the sky with excited eyes

'till I woke with a yawn in the first light of dawn

And I saw him and through his disguise

I wish you a hopeful Christmas

I wish you a brave new year

All anguish pain and sadness

Leave your heart and let your road be clear

They said there'll be snow at Christmas

They said there'll be peace on earth

Hallelujah noel be it heaven or hell

The Christmas you get you deserve
