Ho ho ho the red man’s here Bringing kids some Christmas cheer Making adults run about Bank balance does the twist and shout Playstation, Xbox and Wii together Glued to the telly whatever the weather Kids get hunchback and repetitive strain Get the high score on the latest game To the opticians because they’ve damaged their eyes And never ate those fucking mince pies Video games full of violence and hate Wonder why your child has just stabbed his mate Their reality has become a blur Commanding armies from the bedroom chair Zombies are now not in the game Notice your children looking the same It’s harmless fun we are told Just as long as the games are sold Believe the hype and pay your cash Watch your kids shoot and smash Reality and video start to meet When they go on the street It’s just a game, it can't be bad Can't be sending my child mad Not even had a bite to eat Its four days since they stood on their feet Nintendo’s re-wired the grey matter As long as the blood and guts make a splatter Killing dragons,flying high And they never wonder why They look like shit and smell the same Just stop them playing that fucking game Back to reality with a crash Don’t give Microsoft all your cash Pixelated cranial pie, a painful stoop and lazy eye These are the gifts being the Dragonmaster A living, breathing keyboard disaster Go outside to that alien land As long as you can still stand A breath of air, a bit of sun Remember what it’s like to have real fun?
