Merry Christmas Everyone!

Twas the night before Christmas across this great land

the last under prohibition if they stick with the plan

They promised to legalize back in twenty-fifteen

What that will look like has yet to be seen



The plant will be free they promise by summer

if they delay anymore it'll be a real bummer

I'm not much for waiting and I hate to be told

so I'll spark one now, if I can be so bold



The bowls have been filled with buds green and sticky

Jane prefers bubble hash, Me? I'm not real picky

I take a big haul from my favorite bong

I get a good rush that didn't take long



I think about Trudeau and what he has done

from cops to prime ministers they all think they've won

They want an exclusive, an impossible feat

our culture is powerful, we can not be beat



The suits keep on squabbling “we want more money”

so pathetically greedy, It really is quite funny

They asked our opinion our answers were given

the fact they ignored us Can not be forgiven



I lay on the couch rolling joint after joint

I want to call Justin, I want to make my point

I reach for my phone and scroll my contacts

Seems his number has slipped through the cracks



I ponder my options as I crumble some hash

I could visit in person but I have no cash

I get an new idea, and it's one I can afford

I light a fat Jay and reach for my keyboard



My brain starts working, my fingers begin to write

I'll put thoughts to paper, I'll show him what's right

The words fly out quickly, our position is firm

We'll prove the corruption, let's watch them squirm



I speak of the weedsels, Julian, Chuck et al

We will boycott their business and laugh when they fall

They attempted to profit from the poor and the sick

When they formerly jailed us, the hypocrisy is thick



I write of the rhetoric, the call of “save the children”

while ignoring the obvious, booze is the real villain

The lies and the myths flowing thick and so fast

Absolute insanity – who knew reefer-madness would last



Cries of impaired driving and the cannabis deaths

While kids die from drinking, booze on their breaths

This is straight fear-mongering, stop with the bullshit

Our children are fine, this crap needs to quit



We want to be free to grow, smoke and share

And buy in a store if the market is fair

We want be able to gather and toke

In all public places where it's okay to smoke



We want to be free to use this fine plant

To heal our bodies and the relief it will grant

To enjoy it with friends, talk, sing and dance

We know what we're doing, give us a chance



I struggle for words as I wrap up this note

I speak for all people though I'm not one to gloat

The joints are all gone, just one left to smoke

I end with a comment – how I hope they go broke



I sink in the couch and let the keyboard fall

I toke in silence and stare at the wall

Will my words have an impact, this I much doubt

But I gave it my best, I got it all out



I fade off to dreamland with a drag on the vape

I'm some kinda super hero, with a leaf for a cape

My mission is to conquer the evil LP's

and so in the process bring them to their knees



I hit them with boycotts and stories of mold

and weed that's unsmokable cause it's so old

I tell of chemicals and pesticides that kill

How they flaunt the laws and poison us still



I think I'm successful, but I wake before I know

I hope for the best in the vape's blue lights glow

We've done all we can the rest's up to politicians

With the onslaught of weedsels, I have my suspicions



I lay my head down and hope for the best

for Zoic and Growrock, Cannadan and the rest

With Christmas upon us and the coming new year

We sit here not knowing if we'll cry or if we'll cheer



So now my friends, lets leave politics aside

We lived through prohibition and it was a hell of a ride

Things can only get better, the end is in sight

Merry Christmas to all and may 2018 be bright
