Santa's Got The Vaccine

So it seems we won't be able
To fight around the table
Or share those cracker jokes
No-one is passing round the sprouts
That end up on the ground
As grandparents shoot disapproving looks
The festive cheer we see will flicker on a backlit screen
As sleigh bells ring in isolated snow
Oh Santa bring me medicine
Oh Santa bring me cheer
Oh Santa bring the vaccine like the bells bring in New Year
Those folk who sit in government are on the naughty list
But Santa's got the vaccine, and here he is
The carollers aren't out
To sing the songs of winter gout
Or fairytales of whisky in New York
In days gone by we'd plan just how
We'd avoid hearing Wham but now
It seems like such a pleasant thought
The stockings by the tree are waiting to be filled with PPE
Cos Santa's a key worker, don't you know?
Oh Santa bring me medicine
Oh Santa bring me cheer
Oh Santa bring the vaccine like the bells bring in New Year
Those folk who sit in government are on the naughty list
But Santa's got the vaccine, and here he is
And even if we are at war
I've still got no idea what the Queen's Speech is for

After Christmas
03:40

These lights and this cold were meant for two
It's these nights that we pin our hopes onto
I will stay and you will go away after Christmas
We'll watch our breath and our words
Some truths are better left unheard
I will stay and you will go
But we both know things will change after Christmas
