This Christmas
is my target date,
I'll catch Old
Santa, as I wait...
Right in the
middle of his act,
As he comes down
the chimney stack.
And when I do,
he won't be sad,
Instead I think
he will be glad...
That all those
years of a one man parade,
Are over, no
more masquerade.
He can retire
and pack it in,
Reflect on where
all he has been...
Just relax and
let the years roll by,
No more sleigh
rides through a
starry sky.
Retirement will
suit him just fine,
Give him a lot
of quality time...
To spend right
here, where he belongs,
As he drinks
eggnog, sings Christmas songs.
I'll fetch his
slippers and light his pipe,
And when the
time is nearly ripe...
I'll catch him
beneath the mistletoe,
Then lead him to a place
I know.
He soon will
learn who loves him most,
Who fries his
eggs and burns his toast...
I can give
him love and hold him tight,
Even if it's on
a Christmas night!
