Listen everyone there were objects so peculiar[00:00:00]

They were not to be believed[00:00:04]

All around things to tantalize my brain[00:00:05]

It's a world unlike anything I've ever seen[00:00:09]

And as hard as I try[00:00:12]

I can't seem to describe[00:00:14]

Like a most improbable dream[00:00:16]

But you must believe when I tell you this[00:00:19]

It's as real as my skull and it does exist[00:00:23]

Here let me show you[00:00:28]

This is a thing called a present[00:00:33]

The whole thing starts with a box[00:00:35]

A box [00:00:37]

Is it steel [00:00:38]

Are there locks [00:00:39]

Is it filled with a pox [00:00:39]

A pox[00:00:41]

How delightful a pox[00:00:41]

If you please[00:00:43]

Just a box with bright-colored paper[00:00:44]

And the whole thing's topped with a bow[00:00:47]

A bow [00:00:50]

But why [00:00:50]

How ugly[00:00:51]

What's in it [00:00:52]

What's in it [00:00:53]

That's the point of the thing not to know[00:00:53]

It's a bat[00:00:55]

Will it bend [00:00:56]

It's a rat[00:00:56]

Will it break [00:00:57]

Perhaps it s the head that I found in the lake[00:00:58]

Listen now you don't understand[00:01:00]

That's not the point of Christmas land[00:01:03]

Now pay attention[00:01:07]

Now we pick up an oversized sock[00:01:08]

And hang it like this on the wall[00:01:11]

Oh yes Does it still have a foot [00:01:13]

Let me see let me look[00:01:15]

Is it rotted and covered with gook [00:01:16]

Hmm let me explain[00:01:19]

There's no foot inside but there's candy[00:01:20]

Or sometimes it's filled with small toys[00:01:23]

Small toys[00:01:25]

Do they bite [00:01:26]

Do they snap [00:01:26]

Or explode in a sack [00:01:27]

Or perhaps they just spring out[00:01:28]

And scare girls and boys[00:01:30]

What a splendid idea[00:01:31]

This Christmas sounds fun[00:01:32]

Why I fully endorse it[00:01:34]

Let's try it at once[00:01:35]

Everyone please now not so fast[00:01:36]

There's something here that you don't quite grasp[00:01:38]

Well I may as well give them what they want[00:01:43]

And the best I must confess I have saved for the last[00:01:47]

For the ruler of this Christmas land[00:01:50]

Is a fearsome king with a deep mighty voice[00:01:53]

Least that's what I've come to understand[00:01:57]

And I've also heard it told[00:02:01]

That he's something to behold[00:02:02]

Like a lobster huge and red[00:02:04]

And sets out to slay with his rain gear on[00:02:08]

Carting bulging sacks with his big great arms[00:02:11]

That is so I've heard it said[00:02:15]

And on a dark cold night[00:02:18]

Under full moonlight[00:02:20]

He flies into a fog[00:02:22]

Like a vulture in the sky[00:02:24]

And they call him Sandy Claws[00:02:28]

Well at least they're excited[00:02:40]

Though they don't understand[00:02:42]

That special kind of feeling in Christmas land[00:02:44]

Oh well [00:02:50]
