Santa Goes Commercial

Santa was a fat cat Who gave all his wealth away, Taking toys to boys and girls With his reindeer and red sleigh. The pricey gifts for which kids asked Put Santa in the hole. He had to get himself a job To stay off of the dole. So now you find him hawking wares Before Thanksgiving Day, He knows he has to hustle If he hopes to fill that sleigh. Won 3rd place multiple tie .
