CHRISTMAS HERALD

 

The Christmas lights are up

The shops play Christmas tunes

The Santa’s are out in force

In their red and white platoons

Christmas goodies are on display

The best selections ever seen

Which sends the message out

That it’s nearly Halloween

THE GIFT GIVER

 

The Christmas trees are trimmed

And all the halls are decked

Santa has made his list

And all the names are checked

The reindeer have been harnessed

The sleigh is loaded high

Santa climbs into his seat

And they’re off into the sky

Santa goes from roof to roof

From city to city and town to town

He finds the chimney pot

Then takes the presents down

And the gift giver goes about his work

So that every girl and boy

Can awake on Christmas morning

And unwrap that wanted toy

MY EVERGREENS

 

Oh, Holly and my Ivy

Of all the girls I’ve known

When they dress in the Santa gear

They really ring my bell

MERRY CHRISTMAS SIR

 

Merry Christmas sir, I’m your paper boy

I bring you daily tidings of peace and joy

I know that at 6am that no one knocks

But how else would I get my Christmas box

JINGLE BELLS

Jingle bells, jingle bells,

Jingle all the way.

I’ve got a gun and a clever disguise

To rob the bank on its busiest day

 

Jingle bells, jingle bells,

Jingle all the way.

We got caught do you know why?

Because we only had a getaway sleigh

SCROOGE AND GRINCH

 

Scrooge and Grinch

Don’t believe in Christmas

When the carolers come along

They start to swear and cuss

 

Ebeneezer Scrooge is a skinflint

A mean and grasping old miser

Who buys from the pound shop

And sells them at a fiver

 

Little more than a grouch

Is the Christmas stealing Grinch

Who to miserable to be happy

He steals your Christmas by the inch

 

The tale is told of redemption

After the ghostly haunting stunt

The Grinch whole-hearted and loving

Says merry Christmas with a grunt

Scrooge and Grinch never changed

They were just putting on a front

MOTHER CHRISTMAS, THANKS

 

Mums make Christmas

Only they can

That is a fact of life

Her mission is simple

Every year

Recreating the day

 

Christmas for her

Holidays for her

Require of her to

Illuminate the season

Supply an army

Trim and decorate

Make and manufacture

Aid and assist

Sustain and nourish

 

Thank her

Honour her

Assist her

Neglect her not

Kids and spouses

Should respect her
