What Will All the Children Do

What will all the children do? What will all the children do? Christmas will be late, When Father Christmas goes abroad, He’s told “self-isolate,” Norway is his first stop off Then a two week rest, Cannot fly away to France Until his covid test, Two more weeks of waiting, Another test complete, But then he’ll find they’re out of date, Bags of rotting sweets. Self-isolate again and again, Through China and Japan, But he’ll fly throughout the world The fastest that he can, So dear English children Please don’t start to cry, Christmas will come and visit you, Sometime in July!
