When Santa was a boy
No bigger than an elf
He was in the workshop
Making toys himself
But he has no time now
For making his own toys
Because he’s out delivering
To all the girls and boys

SANTA’S TOYS
CHRISTMAS AGAIN
The advent candle is lit again
The Christmas cards are writ again
Beneath the tree gifts sit again
We’ve overspent a bit again
The Christmas table is set again
Our loved ones are met again
We drink a toast of wet again
And say merry Christmas yet again
JANUARY BLUES
I hate the month of January
Every single day from New Years day
To the 31st day
I hate the month of January
With every fibre of my being
You may say it’s just the January blues
That colours my views
But it’s much deeper than that.
It’s always such a long depressing month
With dreary weather and miserable people
It’s the inevitable aftermath
That follows a joyful Christmas
Its going back to work to the same depressing job
You so happily left behind you on Christmas Eve
It’s the empty bank account
And the look ahead at the five long weeks till payday
Its New Years resolutions and not keeping them
I hate the month of January
From day one, new years day
With it’s reminder of things to come
Another bloody awful year ahead
January fills me with dread
OH GOD TO YOU WE PRAY
Oh God to you we pray
To let peace on earth come our way
Oh God to you we pray
Would that we could have our way
Oh God grant this day
That peace on earth will come our way
Oh God we hear you say
That peace on earth will come our way
If we could from this day
Just live Christmas every day

THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – A DOGWALKER'S CHRISTMAS TALE (2015)
Luce Lockhart (Lexi Giovagnoli) is a spoiled 21-year
old college student from a comfortable background, but she is forced to take a
job over the holidays walking a rich developer's dog, and she is thrilled to
discover they are going to build a salon and spa over the quaint local dog park
nearby.
But when Luce visits the park to walk the dog she meets Dean Stanton (Jonathan Bennett), an irritating yet handsome dog walker who is
actively trying to stop them, Luce is forced to question what the park means to
her newfound friends, and whether she can put aside her selfish ways to help
save the park before Christmas.
Dina Meyer and Patrick
Muldoon star as the developers.
LAST CHRISTMAS
Last Christmas
We got the winter vomiting virus
It wasn’t nice
And it was shared by all of us
It was the worst
We didn’t see much Christmas cheer
I tell you one thing
We’ve just asked for money this year
THE CHRISTMAS ANGEL
The Christmas Angel comes each year
To spread around the Christmas cheer
Though the angels seldom appear
They are still there so do not fear
And listening with the keenest ear
You will never ever be able to hear
The Christmas angel standing near
But she will look over those near and dear
As she spreads around the Christmas cheer
Then the heavenly presence we revere
Twill be gone again until next year
