Santa?


The gentle tiptoe of feet down the hall,

My eyes opening, morning has come,

Creep down the hall with back pressed tightly against the wall,

What is this? Do my eyes decieve?

My mother and father filling stockings all for me

No jolly fat man

No beard made of snow

Just mother and father under the mistletoe

Filling stockings with deceit.
