Who Ate All The Pies?
The old fat fella
In the big red suit
Off delivering gifts
In his festive pursuit
Wide black belt
And big black boot
The jolly fat bloke
Ruddy and hirsute
He does great good
That’s not in dispute
But he eats too much
So he’s a chubby brute
So when he visits
On his Christmas commute
Don’t leave him a pie
Leave him some fruit
Something for Santa
The poem proposes a campaign to help the corpulent Santa Claus lose bit of weight? But would a thin Santa still be Santa?
