MORE NUTS THAN CAN BE CRACKED

 

We buy more drink than can be drunk

We buy more food than can be eaten

We give more gifts than can be appreciated

But for fun Christmas can’t be beaten

KEEPING UP WITH THE JONES’S

 

It can only be Christmas

When the sane start acting funny

Going nuts for Christmas’s sake

And spending too much money

 

Even the levelheaded slip

And fall at the Christmas season

Swept along with the throng

Losing all sense of reason

 

Why does it always happen?

Why does madness always descend?

It seems that the less people have

The more they want to spend

 

So desperate not to miss out

And to have their share of festive cheer

They have a very happy Christmas

And pay the price all the coming year

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 308

 

Mary had a little van

She also had a mini

I never saw her little van

But I have seen her mini

ARE YOU WEARING A CHRISTMAS WAISTCOAT?

 

Are you wearing a Christmas Waistcoat?

Oh yes, it’s a real crowd pleaser

But waistcoats are all rather Dickensian

It makes you look like Ebenezer

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS # 15

 

Twas the night before Christmas and thru the bungalow

Not a creature was stirring in the fireside glow

They’d all been evacuated because of the flood

And the living room floor was all covered in mud

THE CHRISTMAS PUDDING

 

The pudding is in the basin

The cloth is tied in a knot

We put it in the boiling water

And hear it hissing in the pot

IT’S CHRISTMAS BY GOLLY

 

It’s Christmas by golly

Let’s hang up the holly

It’s Christmas by golly

Let’s spend all our lolly

It’s Christmas by golly

It’s the time to be jolly
