Lyrics Town Meeting Song

Listen everyone
There were objects so peculiar
They were not to be believed
All around things to tantalize my brain
It's a world unlike anything I've ever seen
And as hard as I try
I can't seem to describe like a most improbable dream
But you must believe when I tell you this
It's as real as my skull and it does exist
Here
Let me show you
This is a thing called a present
The whole thing starts with a box
A box
Is it steel
Are there locks
Is it filled with a pox
A pox
How delightful, a pox
If you please
Just a box with bright-colored paper
And the whole thing's topped with a bow
A bow
But why
How ugly
What's in it, what's in it
That's the point of the thing
Not to know
It's a bat
Will it bend
It's a rat
Will it break
Perhaps it's the head that I found in the lake
Listen now
You don't understand
That's not the point of Christmas land
Now pay attention
We pick up an oversized sock and hang it like this on the wall
Oh yes
Does it still have a foot
Let me see, let me look
Is it rotted and covered with gook
Um let me explain
There's no foot inside but there's candy
Or sometimes it's filled with small toys
Small toys
Do they bite
Do they snap
Or explode in a sack
Or perhaps they just spring out and scare girls and boys
What a splendid idea
This Christmas sounds fun
I fully endorse it
Let's try it at once
Everyone please
Now not so fast
There's something here that you don't quite grasp
Well
I may as well give them what they want
And the best I must confess
I've saved for the last
For the ruler of this
Christmas land
Is a fearsome king with a deep mighty voice
Least that's what I've come to understand
And I've also heard it told that he's something to behold
Like a lobster, huge and red
And he sets out to slay with his rain gear on
Carting bulging sacks with his big great arms
That is so I've heard it said
And on a dark, cold night
Under full moonlight
He flies into a fog like a vulture in the sky
And they call him Sandy Claws
Ha ha ha
Well at least they're excited but they don't understand
That special kind of feeling in Christmas land
Oh well
