Beings From the Planet Bob
I had spent time decorating my home for Christmas Day,
but felt forlorn when I should be quite gay;
the blinking lights on the tree were bright and pretty,
as I wept tears of sadness holding my sweet kitty;
you see, I am all alone now all have died !
I fell asleep in front of a smoldering fire place,
waking with tangled hair to find an elf face;
but this elf had real jewels in his spikey hair,
well, you are not really the answer to my prayer;
you see, I am all alone now all have died !
Suddenly, a tiny beautiful fairy appeared to sit beside him,
and they began to sing loudly a Christmas hymn;
stop, I begged you are off key for heavens sake,
and can you not see I am full of heartbreak;
you see, I am all alone now all have died !
Well, not anymore silly they both said at the same time,
I looked and noticed she also had jewels sublime,
they heard my weeping and they just had to come;
what are your names please and where are you from,
you see, I am alone now all have died !
He is Donica and I am Evadne from planet BOB,
you see visiting sad people is our forever job;
this odd little couple beings really tickled my funny bone.
it was so NICE to not be visiting a headstone;
you see I am all alone now all have died !
So, all Christmas Day we sang all kinds of songs,
mostly off key but with the joy where it belongs;
but the next morning my house was stone cold,
except for the jewels left- for me to forever hold !
