The song is about Christmas, hope for the new year and putting aside differences.
- - This song is both a protest against the Vietnam War and a Christmas song, signed John Lennon and Yoko Ono.
- It originates from an advertising campaign against the Vietnam War that the couple had launched in 1969 in several major cities around the world.
Original Lyrics by: John Lennon
Interpretation by Celine Dion
So this is Christmas
So it's already Christmas
And what have you done
And have you ever thought what you've done
Another year over
Another year over
And a new one just Begun
and a new one is to start
And so this is Christmas
Yeah, You It's Christmas
I hope you have fun
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
With your loved ones
The old and the young
Have fun Young and Old
A very merry Christmas
A happy Christmas
And a happy New Year
And a prosperous new year
let's hope
let's hope
it's a good one
May he be really good
Without any fear
And without this fear
And so this is Christmas
Cause it's Christmas
For weak and for strong
It's Christmas for the Weak and for the Strong
For rich and the poor ones
It's Christmas for the Rich and the Poor
The world is so wrong
Our world is so wrong
and so happy Christmas
Still have a Merry Christmas
for black and for white
Merry Christmas to Blacks and Whites
for yellow and red ones
Merry Christmas for Yellow and red
Let's stop all the fight
Let's end all this war in the world
A very merry Christmas
A happy Christmas
And a happy New Year
and a prosperous New Year
Let's hope
Let's hope
It's a good one
Let him be real good
Without any fear
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
For it is already Christmas
and what have we done
and you thought what did
another year over
another year over
And a new one just Begun
And another is about to begin,
Tinsel Tots!
