‘Twas the day before Christmas, I thought I’d go mad –
The presents weren’t wrapped – I’d forgotten poor Dad.
‘Twas the day before Christmas, my pies came out burnt –
The oven belched black smoke – what a lesson I’d learnt!
‘Twas the day before Christmas and the icing went runny!
The turkey was still frozen . It wasn’t very funny.
‘Twas the day before Christmas, I packed up my case –
When Christmas arrived I’d disappeared without trace!
