Merry Christmas

 

Christmas is coming.

Santa’s still as fat

He’s even having trouble,

Fitting in his hat

He’s letting out his belt,

An extra notch or two

And has another bowl,

Of tasty reindeer stew

Dancer and Prancer

Went early in the year

Donner and Blitzen

Now live in mortal fear

They don't want to be his dinner,

They don't want to be his prey, but

Who the Hell they gonna get,

To pull old Santa’s sleigh

Your contribution is a mere

Your contribution is a mere drop in the Ocean, when you consider he can eat millions of mince pies in one night. John
