One Christmas Eve, I was hidden from sight
I was waiting for Santa in dim candle light
Then hearing the jingle of that magical sleigh,
oh! How the joy on my face did display
He came through the fireplace, toy-bag in hand
but he didn’t look right, I just don’t understand
A pink furry coat and tight spandex pants
what an odd sight, as I gave one more glance
I jumped from my corner and gave him a scare
he jumped two feet, then gave me that glare
I asked this weirdo, where’s Santa Claus?
what have you done, you’re not him, you have flaws
He said, I am he, a jolly Saint Nick
I said, you’re a lair, you’re playing a trick
Santa would never wear such an array
and I’ll bet you don’t own a magical sleigh
“He said Mrs. Claus washed his clothes in some bleach
and they shrunk in the dryer, his pants turned out peach
She even washed the reindeer with her cleaning brew
and Rudolph got sick, his nose turned all blue
Christmas will happen, though I’m dampened in sorrow
just open your gifts that I leave on the morrow”
So I gave him a cookie and watched as he chewed
thinking just how faithful is this Santa dude
Then out through the chimney roaring with smoke
I grinned and laughed, almost having a stroke
As Santa dashed away in his pink furry coat
riding on the back of a bleached billy goat
