Vacation Frustration Ole Santa’s poor reindeer sure needed a rest So he picked a place that he thought was the best The Bahamas he thought would be a great spot It was out of the cold and yet wasn’t too hot You should’ve seen everyone stopping to stare When Vixen and Blitzen went snorkeling there Dasher did also along with ole Cupid In flippers and masks they really looked stupid They all were quite sure when their ol' buddy Donner Went up on a parasail he was a goner At a club late that night, Comet and Prancer Soon learned how one deer had become known as Dancer And all of the reindeer there had quite a blast Their week long vacation went by much too fast After all of the time they’d spent in the sun Ole Santa at last said “Boys, we’ve got to run” Now everyone knows that Rudolph leads the way Dear ole Santa can’t leave unless he guides the sleigh So Santa looked everywhere hoping to see Just where his lead reindeer might happen to be And it was right then Santa knew that he had A big problem there that was terribly bad For after a week in the sun all exposed Each one of the reindeer he had were red nosed Now Rudolph was needed to end this big mess When Santa called him no one there would confess So Santa you see had a really bad deal He had to stay there ‘til their noses would peel The reindeer stayed there for another fun week Ole Santa was so mad that he’d hardly speak And it is because of his utter frustration He’ll never again let his deer have vacation |
