Twas the day after Christmas
'Twas the day after Christmas, And all through the house, Every creature was hurtin', Even the mouse.
The toys were all broken, Their batteries dead; And Santa was passed out, With some ice on his head.
Wrapping and ribbons, Just covered the floor, While upstairs the family, Continued to snore.
And I in my T-shirt, New Reeboks and jeans, Went down to the kitchen, And started to clean.
When in front of my house, There arose such a clatter, I sprang from the sink, To see what was the matter.
Away to the window, I flew like a flash, Tore open the curtains, And threw up the sash.
When what to my wondering Eyes should appear, But a little white truck, With an over-sized mirror.
The driver was smiling, So lively and grand; The patch on his jacket Read "U. *. POSTMAN".
With a handful of bills, He grinned like a fox, Then stuffed them into Our blue mailbox.
Bill after bill, after bill, They still came.
As he whistling and shouted, And called them by name:
"Now Dillards, now Broadways, now Pennys and Wal-Mart, Here'* Robinsons, Levitz and Target and Hallmark.
To the top of your limit every store, every mall, Now charge away--charge away--charge away all!"
He whooped and he whistled, As he finished his work.
He filled up our mailbox, And then turned with a jerk.
He sprang to his truck, And he drove down the road, Now driving much faster, With just half a load.
Then I heard him exclaim, With great holiday cheer, "Enjoy what you bought, You'll be paying all year!"
