We're simply having a wonderful time

Some of us have split up with their partner

Others have lost their jobs, reason or rhyme

House prices fall like snow, ever faster

That snowman over there's a real b*st*rd

His carrot should be stuck in lower down

Where it can be seen sticking up his rear

And Santa, his gifts are wrapped in plain brown

Bags this year, and bought from 'Under a Pound'

Charity shops that pong like 'Life of Grime'

Old people can't afford to 'Light My Fire'

Let alone relight it; Take That, Boyzone

They're all back, and my shoes don't even 'Shine'

Oh yes, so much to smile about, ain't there?
