Frohe Weihnacht, Ihr Leute, jetzt kommt wieder die Zeit
der Erwartung und Vorfreude, und weit und breit
ist im Lande ein Singen, Halleluja!
Registrierkassen klingen von fern und von nah.
Und die Luft ist von Pfefferkuchenduft erfllt,
und kein Lautsprecher, aus dem's nicht "Stille Nacht" brllt.
Frohe Weihnacht, Ihr Leute, jetzt kommt wieder das Fest,
wo das Schenken uns Menschen befllt wie die Pest,
wo man sich mit Parfum und Krawatten beglckt
und sich Liebe in Haushaltsgerten ausdrckt,
wo die Sektkorken knallen, wo man reinhaut und schlemmt
und die Umwelt mit Weihnachtskarten berschwemmt.
Frohe Weihnacht, Ihr Leute! So wie in jedem Jahr
gibt's auch diesmal die Chance, auf dem Weihnachtsbasar
allen Unrat zu stiften aus Schrnken und Truh'n
und was man sonst nicht wagt, auf den Sperrmll zu tun,
in der frohen Gewiheit, da, was man da verschenkt,
bis zum nchsten Jahr bei unsern Nachbarn rumhngt.
Frohe Weihnacht, Ihr Leute! Jetzt ist die Zeit wieder dran,
wo sich mancher vor Nchstenliebe gar nicht einkriegen kann,
jeder Politiker Sprche vom Frieden klopft,
da das Wachs auf Tischtcher und Teppiche tropft;
wo man friedlich zu Hause sitzt und Nsse knackt
und in Wald und in Flur Weihnachtsbume umhackt.
Frohe Weihnacht, Ihr Leute, und erfreut Euch daran,
da man jetzt nicht so sehr auffllt als Weihnachtsmann,
da in jeder Amtsstube eine Kerze brennt
wie ein Menschlichkeitsschimmer am Amtsfirmament.
Freut Euch ber Lametta, Tand und Lichterglanz
und darber, jetzt Mensch zu sein und keine Gans!
Frohe Weihnacht, Ihr Leute, und verliert keine Zeit!
Der Drogist hlt schon Sylvesterknaller bereit!
Und bedenkt, jeder Christbaumkringel, den Ihr heut nicht et,
wird schon morgen zu Osterhasen umgepret!
Dann ist Weihnacht vorbei, und als Trost bleibt dann blo:
Gegen Ende August geht's ja schon wieder los,
gegen Ende August geht's ja schon wieder los.
