Santa in the grotto

In old Santa’s grotto at the local store
Asking all the children what they hoped for
All the happy children sitting on his knee
Asking for presents to find under the tree

.

One boy seemed he wanted more, the greedy little brat
Santa became very stern not taking stuff like that
You should be more considerate ask for what you need
All these selfish demands looks a lot like greed

.

Then came a girl with blonde hair in an old dress
I’ll be happy to get anything, trying to impress
I want mum to be happy and dad to keep well
And to get through Christmas without some thing to sell

.

I want all children to be fed, always wear a smile
May peace breakout in the countries, that we call hostile
May all the hospitals be full of people getting better
May all the lonely people get phone calls or a letter

.

As she drew her breath, Santa began to sigh
What a thoughtful little girl, trying not to cry
I’m sure all these presents you will surely get
Well hang on Santa I ‘aint finished yet
