It was Christmas eve at the magistrate’s court
And
the Magistrate was in charitable mood
And
in keeping with the season
Was
inclined to show a little latitude
"Now
then, what is the charge against you?"
He
asked the unfortunate prisoner
The
man in the dock replied
"I
was caught Christmas shopping very early sir"
"That
doesn't seem like an offence to me.
What
do you mean by “very early” man”?
"Well,
your Honour." said the defendant,
"It
was an hour before the shop was open."
