Children's Christmas Dilemma
Did mummy say Santa climbs down the chimney
With presents on Christmas Eve night?
He�s so large in his bright red suit
Well, really, that cannot be right.

How would he fit when the chimney�s too small?
He�s so jolly and round, you see.
And what about that big sack of toys?
It just doesn�t sound right to me.

Do you suppose Santa�s magic makes it easy?
Shrinking him to a smaller size.
Wouldn�t that be something to see?
Santa growing before our very eyes.

Let�s wait here on the hearth to see what happens
When Santa comes down our chimney tonight.
We�ll surprise him with milk and cookies,
I hope we don�t give him a fright.
