Christmas Spirits |
«Hey, why don’t you sit down, children |
Grandpa’ll tell you a little story |
Not so long time ago, perhaps it was even last Christmas, who’s to say |
The following story took place in far north |
In a beautiful place where northern lights dance in the wintry sky and millions |
of stars with smiling moon oversee this magical play |
They call this place Lapland |
As you know, this is where Santa Claus lives together with Mrs. Santa and |
countless elves and other creatures |
Usually things go as planned, but one day, somehow, one of the elves found |
Santa’s secret cabin filled with Christmas spirits… |
An event that almost ruined Christmas» |
Undecked halls, this seems fishy |
Rudolph’s running down to Santa’s shack |
«The elves are gone! |
The times are busy!» |
«I cannot build the toys with one pair of hands» |
Oh my, the empty shelves, they found the hidden |
Spirits of last Christmas, «Now I see… |
Fuel yer nose, we’ll search the city |
Those guys will drink the world a dry of Irish things» |
«Run, Rudolph run, with bells and whistles |
We’re searching every bar and guest house» |
The Santa’s call they’ll heed, soon wobble |
In a circle round the tilted Christmas tree |
«Santa, pretty please |
Won’t you let us have more Irish tea for |
We’ll be fuelled by Christmas Spirits |
From this day on 'till the end of times» |
«Why you little tea glazed monsters |
These toys I see, they’re not exactly for children, I believe… |
You’ve gotta be out of your minds |
These are toys of a different kind |
What would you do with this one anyway…» |
«Here's what we’ll do… Now!» |
«Undo the mess, get back in the line now |
Then go, build toys and a fiddle |
24 days and nights in the moonlight |
You’ll work and here is a riddle» |
«What doesn’t have feet, still runs away… it’s time» |
«Alright, back to work now» |
«So once again all was well in the house of Santa |
Toys were built and gifts got packed, as usual |
But every now and again you may just get something… |
You did not really wish for |
And well, now you should have an idea why…» |
«Enough with that infernal yodelling! |
Get to work!» |
«Yeah, yeah, yeah!!!"·$%/&@!» |
«Oh, shut up you!» |
«And this, children, is when Santa learned to hide his Christmas spirits from |
the elves |
But you know, still, sometimes, during Christmas holidays, if you are quiet and |
smell really carefully, you just may find a tiny trail of Christmas spirit in |
your very own home |
Now, time to turn in. Go go go. |
Good night» |
