Oh what a tangled web we weave
when pulling taffy Christmas Eve.
It starts quite innocent enough
with buttered hands on gooey stuff
but strings of taffy soon begin
around our arms and legs to spin.
We pull and pinch and then we fall
together like a popcorn ball.
We roll into the Christmas tree
which covers us in tinsel -- whee!
This web of sugar tit for tat
pulls in the dog and then the cat.
A juggernaut, we roll outside
to pick up swingsets and a slide.
Down in the road we don't get far
before we're stuck onto a car
and carolers we sticky meet
to drag them through the icy street
until without a stop or pause
we run into old Santa Claus.
With reindeer paws and bearded girth
we wobble bulky o'er the earth.
We're partly red and partly green
as we sweep up a manger scene.
Colossal now, we pick up speed
just like a sci-fi film indeed.
So as we smash through snowy crest
we hope your Holidays are blessed!
