Ooooer, Santa! I'm Supposed To Be In Bed…


I'm supposed to be in bed, and supposed to be fast asleep,
But Santa's due, and I was worried, and so I decided to peep!
I need to make sure he comes here, and he doesn't pass me by,
Cos if he does, there'll be murder!  And I will start to cry!

I asked for a doll and pram, he asked for a bike or scooter,
But he's a real mad driver, so he will need a hooter!
He needs to honk that horn…To move them out the way!
Or else they'll be heading for a fall! When he crashes them that day!

He doesn't care he's a nutter, and he's really full of glee…
Not a bit kind and quiet, nor shy and demure like me!
Anyway, it doesn't bother me!  I don't care what he's like,
There'll be hell if he don't get that scooter or trike!

So here I am at 1am…Sitting at my window in the cold,
Waiting for a peep of Santa,  and Rudolph the reindeer bold!
He needs to appear soon!  Or I will be caught out,
And most sternly reprimanded and told…That I will for sure get nowt!

So Santa, please, I'm begging you!  Please come sooner than soon,
Cos I'm so tired and me mums not in bed!  And I'm about to swoon!
So I look to the sky in trepidation, and blimey…what do I see?
Santa and Rudolph, flying about, heading to, and waving at me!

‘Whoooo, Santa!' I shouted! ‘Don't forget me, don't miss me out!'
He smiled and said to me;  ‘Dear girl, tis bed you should be!'
‘I know!'  I said, ‘But I was a little worried!'
‘That you'd miss me out! If your night was hurried!'

‘Now then now then!' Santa said to me…'don't worry!'
‘I will return soon…But you get to bed and hurry!'
I scramble into my bed…and hid under the duvet cover,
And oh, cor blimey and sugar plumbs!I can hear me mother!

I lay oh so very still!  And very quite too…!
Cos if she caught me awake, there'd be a fine to-do!
She closed the door…Phew, and what relief…
No more sneaking about…Or hiding like a thief!

So now I'm going to sleep…And I shall quietly dream…
Of all the toys, candy, sweets, turkey and ice-cream!
In the distance, a noise!  I hear them swish and fly…
Over the chimney tops….!  And way up in the sky!

I fall into slumber, with a smile on my face,
And soon to be Christmas day, my heart starts to race!
I look to the sky again, and yes, there I could see…
Santa and Rudolph…Were coming to visit me!

I snuggle down, and get comfy, and start to drift away…
Thinking of the wonder, of another Christmas day!

**** MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ONE AND ALL! ****

**** AND A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR! ****
