Santas Responsibility Rap

Santa’s Responsibility Rap Loch David Crane July 2, 2006 Santa's jolly all year long he’s such a happy soul; but if ya ever cross him he’ll put you in a hole. Santa’s very red and white he knows who's good and bad. His character assessment shows us what a life you’ve had. So obey your Mums and Daddies and the helpful officers too then we can jail the bad guys and help each other through. We write laws to protect us all, both powerful and least; treat others as you treat yourself, respecting all, is best. But if you sass your Daddy, or the officer ignore, expect a swat upon your rump or SWAT outside your door. Ol' Santa reads the crime reports on a computer he refused to deliver to a bad boy whose trust had been abused. He's read your blog on Facebook and he knows what's in your heart: so "you better be good for goodness’ sake" or your gifts will all depart. Santa doesn't like bad boys or messes on the floor. He doesn't have to forgive you and he doesn't have to bring more. For Santa reflects what you give to others and whom you choose to be; because only a pleasant person gets dreams beneath his tree. A loud, or stubborn, or spoiled child sees an empty cactus tree; a helpful, cheerful, giving kid is a joy that Santa sees. You must think as much of others as you do just for yourself if you want to see those goodies coming towards you off the shelf. 'Cause Santa isn't Jesus, that's why he keeps a list of happy little readers and those in whom he's disappointed. Santa doesn't love you all or listen when you pray-- just good behavior is the key for toys on Xmas day. "What's the X in Xmas?" trembling little voices cry. X is an unknown value until you steal or lie. For Santa isn't Jesus, he's an atheist you see – he dispenses voluntary gifts underneath his pagan tree. He doesn't owe you anything, his gifts are from the heart.. He judges your behavior and each year is a new start. As you behave, so shall you be rewarded by St. Nick; but if you're bad the year before then coal will be his trick. What goes around comes back around and what was old is new; When you give respect to others it returns increased to you.
