CHRISTMAS EVE









CHRISTMAS EVE









For all the little children everywhere
Tonight you can sleep without a care,
For I am sure that you have been good
And did as you were told as you should.



Santa`s about to leave the North Pole
`Have I got everything` he`d cajole?
The elves laugh and shake their head
`Hurry Santa the children are in bed`.



The sleigh was ready the reindeers too
`Let`s go` said Santa and off they flew,
This is quite a journey to undertake
But one that Santa knows he must make.



While you sleep, with parcels piled high
Santa will travel way up in the sky,
He`ll stop and take a peek at you
And he will leave a present or two.



There`s one thing tho` you mustn`t forget
You will have to leave the table all set,
For Santa loves to have some mince pies
And carrots are good for the reindeer's eyes.

  

There`s Dasher, Dancer and Prancer too
Also Vixen and Comet there`s another two,
Don`t forget Cupid, Donner or Blitzen – WAIT
And Rudolf the red nosed reindeer he`s great.

..............


I hope Santa hasn`t put on too much weight
If he gets stuck up the chimney he`ll be irate,
So I hope you`ve swept your chimney clean
Or this is what will happen, see what I mean.



When Santa got stuck up the chimney
He began to shout…
`Hey boys and girls you won`t get any toys
If you don`t pull me out,
My beard is black, there`s soot in my sack
My nose is tickly too`,
When Santa got stuck up the chimney
`Achoo!!   Achoo!!   Achoo!!`

    

If you have no chimney then worry not
For a magic key is what Santa`s got,
He may put your presents under the tree,
In a stocking or by your bed for you to see.



Sleep well children for Santa is very near
But if you`re awake Santa won`t appear,
Xmas morning when you open your eyes
If you`ve been good you`ll get a surprise.



The snow is falling thick and fast
And I can hear sleigh bells at last,
Santa will be arriving very soon
I`ve seen his shadow on the moon.
