Alligator Friend

I know an alligator was what you mentioned And I had a cute little one in mind But sadly, I didn't get you one Of any sort or any kind. You see, alligators are in hibernation At this blessed time of year, So I was not able to get you one, And plus, I didn't know how I'd get it here! Now if an alligator is what you seek For you to be filled with joy and glee, Perhaps you can visualize one Hanging on your sparkling Christmas tree. He'll wink at you and smile And be as happy as he can be, And he'll remind you that this Christmas, You have an alligator friend in me.
