A ridiculous sight for all to see
in my tacky sweater of Charlie Brown,
sitting nervously upon Santa's knee.
This shouldn't be, except my friends dared me;
a full-grown man acting more like a clown,
sitting nervously upon Santa's knee.
Santa's too jolly, ignoring my plea,
embarrassed, I start struggling to get down,
a ridiculous sight for all to see.
When my friends start laughing, I want to flee,
my smile's instantly replaced by a frown
sitting nervously upon Santa's knee.
Holding me tight with a sly look of glee
he offers to take me out on the town,
a ridiculous sight for all to see.
His Santa suit's dirty; it smells like pee
and I no longer want to stick around.
A ridiculous sight for all to see,
sitting nervously upon Santa's knee.
