LITTLE BOXES

 

Little parcels by the fireside

Little parcels wrapped in pretty paper

Little parcels by the fireside

Little labels all the same

There's a round one and a square one
And a long one and a squishy one,
And they're all wrapped in pretty paper
Little labels all the same

 

And the people in their houses

All sit beside the Christmas tree

And one un-wraps a pretty parcel

Then the others do the same

 

So the round one and the square one
And the long one and the squishy one,
That were all wrapped in pretty paper
Christmas presents is the name

AFTER THREE WEEKS OR SO

 

After three weeks or so

Working in the grotto

It begins to take its toll

On the poor old soul

Sitting on his great chair

Pretending to care

As all the girls and boys

Plead for various toys

Kids of every shape and size

Looking for a prize

Clambering on his knee

Wriggling with glee

Until the poor old chap

Suffers from Santa lap

THE OFFICE PARTY

 

The office party

Was relief from the slog

When you spent your time

Hitting the nog

And hanging by the mistletoe

Hoping for a snog

CHRISTMAS MANIA

 

Uncle John has mental health issues

And he doesn’t do well with stress

So normally come Christmas time

He has to board the bi-polar express

THE BIG FELLA’S R & R

 

After circumnavigating the globe

Staring at the back end of Prancer

Santa Claus really looks forward

To watching a north pole dancer

HANDLE MUM WITH CARE

 

Mum gets really stressed out at Christmas

And you upset her if you dare

Because the result could be that you will

Be hung from the chimney with care

SANTA CLAUS IS IN TROUBLE

Santa Claus is in trouble

He’s been up to his old tricks again

When the Christmas fairy was found

Licking his candy cane
