Christmas Time

Christmas time

Visions of little snowmen,
Tinsel in the tree,
It’s that time of year again,
And presents there will be.
You hear the tune, your favourite tune,
You find you sing along, 
Getting very excited when…
You hear that Christmas song.

Decorations hanging down, 
The bright red jumper craze,
Merriment throughout the town,
As you mark off all the days,
Twinkling lights and glitter balls,
Cards with robins on,
And still you click your fingers when…
You hear that Christmas song.

Advent calendar, chocolate treat,
Several more to go,
Freezing hands and frostbit feet,
Brought on by the snow,
Wondering is it worth it,
When will this be gone?
But still you smile a little bit when…
You hear that Christmas song.

Christmas dinner, turkey feast,
Presents now unwrapped,
The merriment now has ceased,
As the adults take a nap,
Children still excited,
For them it carries on,
But adults now just want some hush,
And not that bloody song.
