XMAS FARCE

Santa is just an old farm boy

No more lukewarm milk for him

Now don't get alarmed over this

But playing Santa is just a whim

It's the tractor not sleigh ride

They are farm hands not elves

Armed with corn bread not cookies

With marmalade on the shelves

Let's just call him Farmer Sam

Mrs. Claus is Carmella

She believes strongly in Karma

And dances a mean Farruca

The reindeer's name is Rudy

He's faraway for a reindeer

His nose is often in barm

as his favorite drink is beer

He fell on the tarmac one day

And hurt poor Mrs. Claus's arm

They had to call the pharmacy

To make sure there was no harm

Now you know this is a farce

Just trying to entertain

I just want to charm you

Wish you Happy Holiday again

Farruca - Spanish dance: a flamenco dance

faraway - dreamy: having a dreamy absent-minded expression or appearance

barm - Foam rising upon beer

tarmac -A paved surface having compressed layers of broken rocks held together with tar
