Wat’d you get for Christmases?

[malcom]

My Haul

-An Old Navy Giftcard
-A little trashcan full of Carmel Korn (or is it Kettle Corn?)
-A Thermin
-A big book of 2000 something famous quotes
-Socks
-Enough candy to put me into a diabetic coma

But the real kicker was that my gift to my dad and my dad’s gift to me mum were both wrapped in IDENTICAL gift boxes with IDENTICAL wrapping paper and both were left unmarked (I thought I could recognize my wrapping and me mum’s a notorious snoop).

Nuttin’ For Christmas

I broke my bat on Johnny’s head;
Somebody snitched on me.
I hid a frog in sister’s bed;
Somebody snitched on me.
I spilled some ink on Mommy’s rug;
I made Tommy eat a bug;
Bought some gum with a penny slug;
Somebody snitched on me.

Oh, I’m gettin’ nuttin’ for Christmas
Mommy and Daddy are mad.
I’m getting nuttin’ for Christmas
‘Cause I ain’t been nuttin’ but bad.

I put a tack on teacher’s chair
Somebody snitched on me.
I tied a knot in Susie’s hair
Somebody snitched on me.
I did a dance on Mommy’s plants
Climbed a tree and tore my pants
Filled the sugar bowl with ants
Somebody snitched on me.

So, I’m gettin’ nuttin’ for Christmas
Mommy and Daddy are mad.
I’m gettin’ nuttin’ for Christmas
‘Cause I ain’t been nuttin’ but bad.

I won’t be seeing Santa Claus;
Somebody snitched on me.
He won’t come visit me because
Somebody snitched on me.
Next year I’ll be going straight;
Next year I’ll be good, just wait
I’d start now, but it’s too late;
Somebody snitched on me.

So you better be good whatever you do
‘Cause if you’re bad, I’m warning you,
You’ll get nuttin’ for Christmas.
