(Here Comes Santa Claus)

Here comes Balladeer
Here comes Balladeer
Writing all the way
He's got a book that's filled with rhyme
And he'll send you one today
Bally knows that he is loved
It makes him smile so bright
So, listen close, he's getting near
Yes, Balladeer's comin' tonight

_______________


(I'm Dreaming Of A White Christmas)

I'm dreaming of a Balladeer
I'd follow anywhere he'd go
His eyes would glisten and to me he'd listen
Not like that loud mouth guy named Toe

I'm dreaming of a Balladeer
With every poem that I write
Here I sit waiting for him tonight
Come on 'Deer...you know I'll treat you right.

_______________


(It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year)

He's the most talented poet named 'Deer
Of his rhyming he's boasting
While others are roasting
The verses they hear
He's the most talented poet named 'Deer

_______________


(All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth)

All I want for Christmas is my Balladeer
My Balladeer, yes my Balladeer
Gee, if I could only have my Balladeer
Then I'd have all I want for Christmas

It's been so long since he was mine
I'd have to say he's really rather fickle
Gosh, oh gee, why won't he come to me
I'd give him a whole nickel

Oooh...

All I want for Christmas is my Balladeer
My Balladeer, yes my Balladeer
Gee, if I could only have my Balladeer
Then I'd have all I want for Christmas




"...until you have read the verse on his heart,
you have not truly met the poet.

Vicky, I love this. It's so cute. I know that Balladeer will
like it, too. Yours was so nice, maybe he won't make Santa  "moon"
you the way he did me.

Loud mouth Toerag?....I'm the quiet one that just sits in the corner shyly and allow so-called poets like Balladeer to be mean to me?....And all ya want for Christmas is Balladeer?...What? Are you on Santa's naughty list?.....You'd be better off with a chunk of coal....like me, but I'll be a diamond some day.....Well, now you've hurt my feelings, so my Christmas is ruined...but that's okay, I hope your's is wonderful, maybe you'll be lucky and won't get what you wished for...Balladeer..

What a delightfully fun and light-hearted seasonal piece of writing! Our beloved Balladeer will certainly find his fancy tickled with this tribute!

Tickle Toe, Tickle Toe
Tickle Toe all the way

And I always thought you were a nice gal... being a friend of Marge's and all... that's kind of a free pass into my good graces. *G* But here you go and malign that sweet Toerag (without even a tidbit of justification or provocation *G*) and you want Balladeer??? I have to wonder if you've been nipping in the eggnog already? LOL Or did the sun out there addle the eggs? LOL Ah, well... there's no accounting for tastes. *G*

And Marge??? I do my harmonizing VERY quietly... don't wanna hurt Toe's ears or have him run even faster! ROFL!!! All these "carols" are awfully hard on my office mates cause I couldn't sing BEFORE I was ill... now my voice cracks like a teenage boy's. *G*

Now I'm off to see if I can cheer poor Toe... or make his holidays REALLY awful by volunteering to visit. *G*

Enjoyed!!! *S*

Wow, Vicky! These are wonderful!! Thank you! To have someone go through all this work to write me carols is very special.

Yes, you described Toerag very well and thanks for the offer of a nickel but everyone here knows that I'm at least a two-bit poet!

Please allow me to respond with a special song just for you. It's not Christmassy but, since you live there, it seems appropriate....to the tune of "By the Time I Get to Phoenix"..

By the time I get to Phoenix
You'll be risin'
Horizon
Painting sunstrands in your hair.
You'll smile just to think I'll soon be calling
Passion falling
Everywhere.

By the time I get to your street
You'll be soaking
Invoking
Lilac water in your bath.
You'll run the smooth soap bar across your body
Slightly naughty
As you laugh.

By the time I reach your doorstep
You'll be dressing
Silk carressing
Shapely figure everywhere.
You'll think of how my eyes will look and treasure
All the pleasure
Waiting there.

By the time we're face to face there I'll be muddled
Befuddled
By the sight that I see there.
Alzheimer's makes my reason there forgotten
Oh, how rotten!
Hey! Nice underwear!!!

DEER IN THE HOUSE
For VLRaynes

Your mommy said not to let Deer in the house
Deer in the house, Deer in the house
Your mommy said not to let Deer in the house
Deer in the house...

Now why would you want to let Deer in the house
Deer in the house, Deer in the house
Now why would you want to let Deer in the house
Deer in the house

You can't keep the floor clean with Deer in the house
Deer in the house, Deer in the house
You can't keep the floor clean with Deer in the house
Deer in the house

What's that you say, you let Deer in the house
Deer in the house, Deer in the house
What's that you say, you let Deer in the house
Deer in the house

You'll have to clean up now with Deer in the house
Deer in the house, Deer in the house
You'll have to clean up now with Deer in the house
Deer in the house

Tell Mom that you've gone and let Deer in the house
Deer in the house, Deer in the house
Tell Mom that you've gone and let Deer in the house
Deer in the house

Cuz nice girls just don't let Deer in the house
Deer in the house, Deer in the house
Cus nice girls just don't let Deer in the house
Deer in the house

I think that it's best to put salt on the porch
Salt on the porch, Salt on the porch
I think that it's best to put salt on the porch
Salt on the porch
