Hangin' up my stocking
I'm putting the star on my Christmas tree
The gift I'm hoping for
Can't buy it in a store
Won't fit in a box
You get it for free
What could it be?
If money doesn't matter anyway
Can't take it with us when we leave one day
Until then we've got our lives to live
So let's give each other one thing that we've got to give
This Christmas -- la, la, la, let's give love
This Christmas -- la, la, la, let's give love
This Christmas -- la, la, la, let's give love
Let's give each other all the love we've got
Wanna give me a present?
Just give me your fall, winter, summer, spring
You know as well as I
All of the gadgets and the trinkets
The toys you can buy
They don't mean a thing
In the end
Our money doesn't matter anyway
Can't take it with us when we leave one day
Until then we've got our lives to live
So let's give each other all the love we've got to give
This Christmas -- la, la, la, let's give love
This Christmas -- la, la, la, let's give love
This Christmas -- la, la, la, let's give love
Let's give each other all the love we've got to give
Let's give each other all the love we've got
We're stuck in one place
Wrapped up in the race
We keep running
The rat race we're running
So when do we get
To throw out the script
To stop scheming
And start la-la-la-loving?
Our money doesn't matter anyway
Can't take it with us when we leave
So let's give love!
La, la, la, let's give love
This Christmas -- la, la, la, let's give love
This Christmas -- la, la, la, let's give love
Let's give each other all the love we've got to give
Let's give each other all the love we've got to give
Let's give each other all the love we've got to give
Let's give each other all the love we've got

Set your ears to "stun." Maya collaborated with Paul McComas and the late, great Richard LaValliere (Oil Tasters, The Haskels) on the soundtrack for Paul's quirky Star Trek parody film, TIME TREK. Maya Keytar
Another McComas collab; a lot more serious. In this adaptation of the novel UNPLUGGED, 27-year-old rocker Dayna weathers the dust storms of the Badlands -- and of her own suicidal thoughts. Maya Keytar
Drummer Tim Coghlan and guitarist Bill Welense sharpen the edges of Maya's keyboard-based alt-rock songs, forging SAFEWORD -- a high-energy power trio with influences from punk to prog. Maya Keytar
Pivoting from German to English, disco to soft rock, the groovy Swiss duo branch out on their first album in six years. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 28, 2024
