Christmas is coming.
Here’s my list of things to do,
Be nice to little sister,
Ask polite, say please, and thank you too.
Clean my room, pickup toys,
I might even sweep the floor.
No, I was not born in a barn,
Yes, I will shut the door
Bake a cake for neighbor,
Lend a hand in trimming the tree.
Help dad put up the lights
For everyone to see.
Yes, my list is kind of long,
And will be lots of work,
Then I think about it all,
And say with a smirk.
Thought my list is so long,
With so much to get done.
I think I will save Santa a trip
Being naughty is much more fun.
