Christmas Trees - Really

A Christmas tree is going up already Hang on a mo though I said to Eddie As he was the one who made it ready To crane it up and make it steady Surely it's not time for Xmas puds already As I have not peeled my spuds or sprouts yet Eddie And as for turkey and stuffing Do they mean to you nothing? So sorry Eddie said to me But can't you clearly see That it's as plain as plain can be That Christmas started yesterday It's the same as last year and the year before So before you close your door Just make sure you complete your chores At least by Halloween or before Then just sit back and relax As bonfire night is just a crack For you to remember that A New Year is almost already back And Christmas trees will then appear Even earlier then this time next year!

Found this extremely fun and clever! I am like a five year old at Christmas. Bedazzled by the lights and music. Worked in a dept store for Christmas three years in a row, Costumers are like kittens at the Beginning... Closer. To Christmas! Godzillas out of control. ))) Panagiota
