'tisn'T the Season
Walmart has its Christmas trees
For sale, for goodness’ sake!
Guess they won’t dry out, though,
‘Cause, of course, those trees are fake.
But hey, it’s just October first,
With short-sleeved shirts still worn.
The stores have barely gotten in
Their stock of candy corn.
Celebrate the orange first
Before the red and green;
And keep in mind that Chanukah,
This year, falls in-between.
But many people just can’t wait
For Christmas spending sprees,
So chompers-at-the bit, enjoy,
For Walmart sure agrees!
