If most animals of the same species but different colors and origins can get along, why can't we??

It may not feel like Christmas
It may not be real cold
We may not have a tree yet
We may be getting old
Our jobs may be demanding
Our house may be a mess
The dog may be annoying
The lights are not up yet
I know things are not perfect
I know things might be hard
At least we have a living
And I’ve sent out the Christmas cards
But who cares about the basics
Who cares about a tree
We have the most important thing
And that is you and me
