The Lamentations of a Greedy Child
What’s under my Christmas tree?
What did Santa Claus bring for me?
Mama says that I suffer from greed…
But there’s lots of stuff I really need.
I’m not talking about homemade presents.
(These are the things that I deeply resent.)
What I really want comes from a store…
And while a little is nice, I prefer more.
Comes the morning…
Hey… all I got was this piece of coal!
Something that comes from a dirty hole,
This chunk of rock isn’t much fun…
And to make matters worse… I only got one!
End
