Santa Hits the Snooze Button: For Christmas Cheer Contest

Santa Hits The Snooze Button
(For Christmas Cheer contest)

Santa woke up feeling fruity
The Mrs was spark out
He grinned cos in a minute
His Rudolph clock would shout

Whinny, whinny, moo, quack
Whinny, whinny, neigh
(How’s a poet sposed to know
What Reindeer clocks might say)

Even though his wife nowadays
Is lamb dressed up as mutton
He sees her how she used to be
So wallops that snooze button

So Santa’s got ten minutes
For undercover fun
Please excuse the metaphor...
He’s got a loaded gun

We’ve got a spare ten minutes
Come take your man to heaven
Well what we gonna do she said
With the other seven

Thankyou Carolyn. It was under cover fun or boil an egg... hmm... perhaps Santa doesn’t like eggs!
