Blast from the past: Remember this show?

Twas The Night Before Christmas- Video version- By Mike nixon

Blast from the past! Ode to Santa and the Economy

Ah it's Christmas time again, and it wouldn't be Christmas without a story about Santa. Enjoy.

Ode to Santa and the Economy by Gonzo 2010

There goes Santa, running for his sleigh;
He’s gotta run fast to get away.


You see, the economy has struck the North Pole as well;
The elves are on strike, and his wife is giving him hell.


Now when Santa makes his appearance at the department stores;
It’s not just for all those little kids anymore.


He’s not going to make a whole lot of stops;
‘Cause look out Santa… here comes the cops.


So off he goes, in the middle of the night;
To find those gifts, and get out of sight.


There’s Santa, flying far into the night;
Carrying all those gifts, on his yearly flight.


With all the alarms blaring and the police giving chase;
Santa will be long gone, without leaving a trace.

He has to be quick to have it done by Christmas Eve;
So many gifts and so many places to be…


The presents will all be wrapped, and the tags will be off;
That’s because Old Santa is very careful, not to get caught.

So look for your present on Christmas day;
(Just keep hush-hush if it’s from Santa, OK.)


Now, I don’t know if Old Saint Nick will stop at your house, or not;
But if he does … … … … … THOSE GIFTS ARE HOT ! !

PEACE ON EARTH, GOOD WILL TO ALL
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! ! !
