'Tis the night of Christmas,
And all through the town,
Toy inventories in stores
Are way down.

Parents who spent the day
Bubbling with cheer
Are thankful that Christmas
Comes just once a year.

Into their beds
Little boys and girls fall,
Dizzy, exhausted,
Confused by it all.

Meanwhile, at the North Pole,
Santa swears, "That's it!
Let them find someone else.
I've had it. I quit."

His wife's heard it before,
So she strokes Santa's brow
And coos into his ear,
"Dear Santa, now,now.

You know children love you
And can't wait to see
What you decide to leave
Under the tree."

"Oh I know," Santa grumbled,
"They love me. that's true,
So...I'll do it again--
But just to please you."

Rest easy, young children.
Santa's coming because
He knows you all love him,
And he loves Mrs. Claus.

This is so cute. Thank heavens there's still a Santa Claus coming around!!

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?
