Santa's Underwear written by Marty Rhodes-figly.
Creatively read by Miss Jill.
It was Christmas Eve and time to get ready.
Santa shined his belt buckle and polished his best black boots.
He ate a healthy dinner to give him some energy for the busy night ahead
as santa munched on his whole wheat bread,
visions of delicious sweets danced in his head
Tonight children would leave tasty treats by the Christmas trees
Just for him.
he brushed his teeth and then scrub-a-dub-dubbed in the tub
after blow-drying his hair santa combed his silky beard
until it shined like the new fallen snow
wrapped in his favorite robe he admired how jolly he looked in the mirror
the hour had come
to put on his special christmas clothes
santa pulled open the underwear drawer in his dresser
He poked around
where were his long red wooly undies
even though they were old faded and saggy
he always wore them under his suit on this special night
they kept him warm as his sleigh soared across the starry wintery sky
santa looked through the rest of the drawers
checked the dirty clothes hamper
and peeked under the bed
but all he found was one white sock, a dusty rubber reindeer toy, and two sticky candy canes.
no red undies
Santa sighed,
well, guess I'll just have to wear something else
he tried on his pink boxers and t-shirt Mrs. Claus had given him last valentine's day
too many hearts and cutesy cupids he said
then he buttoned up his green long johns he wore every saint Patrick's day
these shamrocks aren't Christmasy at all
his easter briefs covered in pictures of dancing jelly beans
made Santa ask, what was I thinking
the tidy whities and undershirt that he bought for Thanksgiving
were now a little too tidy and uncomfortable
Yeah well I did eat a lot of pumpkin pie that day
his boring regular underwear just wasn't right for tonight
what was he to do wear no underwear at all on Christmas eve
that would certainly make him shiver and quiver out in the cold
brrr
Santa threw up his hands in despair
The clock was tick-tocking. Children all over the world were expecting their presents
There was no time to waste.
he would just have to wear those silly shamrock long johns
well
at least they were green and warm
Santa sighed as he opened the closet door to get his santa suit
there on a hanger right in front of him tied with a bow were brand new
Christmas undies!
they were just like his old ones but not saggy
their color was almost as bright as rudolph's nose
a card tied to the front read --
"Dear Santa, use this woolly gift tonight, last Christmas we couldn't help but notice that you really needed some new undies.
warm wishes." - Rudolph and the reindeer crew
ho ho ho, decked out in holiday red
Santa admired how twinkly his eyes looked in the mirror
he finished dressing, plopped on his hat, and raced out the door
as Santa hopped into his sleigh and rose out of sight, you could hear him exclaim,
Thank you Rudolph, Dasher, Dancer Prancer, and Vixen thanks to Comet, Cupid, Donner, and Blitzen
now let's get this show on the road
we've got a job to do.
Merry Christmas to you
The End
