This year there’s no gifts to delight us Cos Santa Claus has tinselitus He’s confined to bed And can’t steer his sled His mince pie is now superfluous My husband will take up the cause And dress up as dear Santa Claus In a suit of bright red On mince pies he’ll be fed Children give him a round of applause Happy Christmas to all the super soupers 12/24/12
