And now its time to think of Christmas and all that that entails

With excited children, lots of presents, carols and winter tales

And if it snows and robins fly, then all will be so fine

Lots of food with nuts and fruit and drinks of hot mulled wine

We’ll decorate the Christmas tree and hang up pretty things

And sing of shepherds, angles on high, mangers and Three Kings

I’ll put up Holly around the house not forgetting the mistletoe

Light up a welcoming roaring fire and listen to the North wind blow

So soon comes Christmas eventide small children are put to bed

And later we’ll climb the creaking stairs, shoes off and softly tread

But first the presents around the tree now everything is set

I’ll sit and read my bank account and wonder about my debt

Not only that, my credit card is busting at the seams

While innocent ones sleep peacefully indulging in their dreams.

So now its Christmas day at last, the children are awake

The turkeys in, the cake is made there’s nothing more to bake

Let’s celebrate the birth of Christ on this cold winters day

I wish you all a merry time lets hope for peace and joy

I wish all dreams you have come true and send happiness your way.
