What Santa Saw at our House
There’s pudding in the crackers
There’s sixpence on the telly
The elves are being slackers
There’s mistletoe in the jelly
We gather under the table
Put the turkey on the tree
There’s a snowman in the stable
Count the Magi – forty three
I’ve got a tinsel-flavoured lolly
Rudolf’s made mince pies
The chimney’s full of holly
Santa can’t believe his eyes.
There’s sixpence on the telly
The elves are being slackers
There’s mistletoe in the jelly
We gather under the table
Put the turkey on the tree
There’s a snowman in the stable
Count the Magi – forty three
I’ve got a tinsel-flavoured lolly
Rudolf’s made mince pies
The chimney’s full of holly
Santa can’t believe his eyes.
