there's a bloke bringing in a six-pack of beer to watch the nutcracker

he sits in front of us with his family
nice touch but then it is evident from 
his long pig face
that there; has been some foul play

the sweet woman welcomes us before 
proceedings with a monologue of length
i stare at the seat in front of me
cake wasted and my wife brings a Coca Cola 

the bloke is the first to applaud
the introduction with idiotic enthusiasm
and his son notices and they high-five
i should have brought nunchucks  

the second half is boring
white bread stuff
my son is asleep
yawntastic

never move your eyebrows when talking
