'Tis the weekend 'fore Christmas and all through the mall
It's more hectic then a game of peewee football.
The jeweler is trying to unload more bling
With a hunky-boy Santa and angels on wing.
The clothing store offers discounts galore
On the rest of the sweaters, and very much more
While out in the center, there arose a great noise
When the toy store announces a raffle of toys.
So we buy and we buy, 'til our credit card dies,
Then head back home to bake fresh pumpkin pies.
Then wonder why we fall into this trap
As we head to our beds for a long winters nap.
