MAY YOUR CHRISTMAS
May your Christmas carolers all sing in tune
May your cards go out on time,
May your spouse not be at the poolroom
While you're waiting at the mall for a ride.
May the busy season not drive you berserk
With shopping, wrapping and decorating the tree,
May it be someone else who does all the work
And all the credit may you receive.
May your eggnog be made with 80-proof rum
May your holiday punch be spiked,
May out of your head stay sugar plums
May it not be your job to string lights.
May you not drink too much and accidentally barf
All over someone's holiday attire,
When your stockings are hanging from the hearth
May they not be too close and catch fire.
May you not be burned by hot candle wax
Gas prices, department stores or thieves,
And come the New Year, may you owe no tax
May you always have an ace up your sleeve.
May your Christmas be merry
May your Yule Log burn bright,
May Santa leave under your tree
All those gifts you forgot to buy.
Just as if special ordered
May your holidays be,
And when the season’s over
May we all breathe a sigh of relief.
