The spirit of Christmas

We wish a very Happy Christmas
To anyone who sees this ad
Note that if you pop in-store today
You’ll soon be feeling glad
It’s a winter land of wonder
Each aisle’s packed with goods
To make this season “special”
Usually crackers and hot puds
Get ready for a stuffing
We’ve nuts and tangerines
Navigate trolley dodgems
Round cardboard nativity scenes
The mince pies are on special
The turkey’s on BOGOF
The sprouts we’d give out gratis
With cut-price mixture for that cough
Prance to our festive jingles
Feel the spirit grow within
Get ready for those calories
As you won’t be growing thin
Our price-matched must-have presents
Will all glow as they’re unwrapped
Illuminating the sweet joy of youth
With bestowed expression rapt
But if you’re all Bah Humbug Scrooge
At our money-making deeds
Just throw in the towel
We’ll still cater for your needs
Stock up on cost-price spirits
And you’ll soon be in the throes
Of a very merry Christmas
With matching Rudolph nose
Whilst you’re celebrating (in moderation)
No dying for your sins
The reduced section’s cleared out
And Christmas piles up in the bins
It’s all been and gone up in smoke
Like a final cigarette
As we’re pricing up the January sales
