Daver Austin Poet I do not know?

Christmas Windows - We Be Smart

He mighta fooled the neighbor kids
    when he complain, "Chimney all plugged up!"
Mighta have fooled our Saint Bernard
    when he say. "Nice dawg you have there sonny."
But!    That man with them argyle sox and tennis shoes
    pillow stuffed    beard lop-slide-sided
He aint    NOOO  WAY!    Santa Claus
That fool be our skinny ol dad!
