Santa Suit
I don't believe in Santa Claus
The way that I once did
I know dad brings the presents
Cos I found where they were hid
Don't be silly said my mum
Santa's not your pop
I said I found a wig and beard
Made from an old string mop
I said if Daddy isn't Santa
Something else is true
If Daddy isn't Santa Claus
I guess it must be you
It seems you've grown up she said
And should now know the truth
That daddy sneaks in through the door
No reindeer on the roof
I told her she should worry more
About dad's fancy dress
I'm really not too sure it's me
he's trying to impress
I told her that when she's at work
And dad thinks I'm in bed
He often dresses strangely
With the mop upon his head
She said he likes to practice
In his Santa Claus attire
After all she said it's why
We hang a stocking by the fire
She said he wants his Santa act
As good as it can be
I should be proud because
He does his Santa act for me
I said we all like parties, Mum
Including fancy dress
But something I must tell you
Might cause you some distress
Cos people dress as Santa Claus
And sometimes even vicars
But I don't get why dad struts round
In your bra and knickers
