Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas
Without the festive treats
Cards and presents
And the food we eat
With relatives and friends
Christmas is sweet.
Traditional roast turkey
Pudding and mince pies
Chocolates in abundance
And savoury delights.
We may eat too much and
Drink more than we should
But it makes us merry
And merriment is good.
We watch the classic films
That never ever die
Play games like in days of old
And keep the spirits high.
We’re having a merry Christmas
It’s good to be together
And in Christmas cheer
We wish you a merry Christmas
And a happy new year.
Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas
Without the festive treats
Cards and presents
And the food we eat
With relatives and friends
Christmas is sweet.
