Christmas Downunder

Just a few days to Christmas So much to do Mum has decided We’ll have a barbecue Dad’s at the bank Taking out some money Baby’s in his highchair Sucking on his dummy Nan is in the garden Picking pretty flowers Big sister’s on the phone For hours and hours and hours Family are arriving Putting presents my the tree A small one for baby A big one for me We’d better all be good And try not to fight For Santa Claus is coming In the middle of the night. He’s a jolly fellow In his suit of cherry red Pull up the covers Snuggle down in bed Santa will arrive In his jet propelled sleigh Laughing and ho ho-ing Across the milky way Early Christmas morning Look up into the sky You will see a message MERRY CHRISTMAS AND GOODBYE

Authentic description, vouched for by a Kiwi born and bred. Great rhythm by the way. Best wishes David in Wainuiomata.
