Camouflage And Christmas Lights Rodney Carrington Album: Make It Christmas Intro: /////////////// G Emu Another year has come and goneue And I’m still here holdin’ on To this rifle and a picture of my kids They’re sayin’ its a holiday Sure as hell don’t feel that way I don’t think Jesus meant for it to be like this. A paper star on a plastic tree Cotton snow in a manger scene We do the best we can to make it feel like home. Turkey dinner on paper plates Sargent bows his head to pray Boombox playin’ silent night Camouflage and Christmas Lights. There probably up on the hill by now Bundled up and sleddin’ down Catchin’ snowflakes on the edge of their tongues Standin’ up at the top would be The prettiest girl I’ve ever seen Whispering a quiet prayer for all of us. A paper star on a plastic tree Cotton snow in a manger scene We do the best we can to make it feel like home. Turkey dinner on paper plates Sargent bows his head to pray Boombox playin’ silent night Camouflage and Christmas Lights. Some say I’m a hero But I’m just a Dad Who’s trying to protect The most precious thing I have Someday I’ll be home again And our world will be right But for tonight A paper star on a plastic tree Cotton snow in a manger scene We do the best we can to make it feel like home. Turkey dinner on paper plates Sargent bows his head to pray Boombox playin’ silent night Camouflage and Christmas Lights Thank God it’s a silent night Camouflage and Christmas Lights Outro: ---

La chanson évoque un père qui se trouve loin de sa famille pendant la période des fêtes, tout en essayant de maintenir un semblant de tradition et de chaleur familiale. Il décrit des éléments du quotidien qui rendent cette période à la fois spéciale et mélancolique, comme un arbre en plastique et un dîner sur des assiettes en papier. Bien que le contexte soit sombre, avec des références à la guerre et à la protection de ses proches, il y a une volonté de se rassembler, de prier et de célébrer avec les siens, même à distance. La juxtaposition entre la réalité difficile d'un soldat et l'esprit de Noël est au cœur de ses réflexions.
