Frosty the Snowman
- Author unknown
Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul,
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
and two eyes made out of coal.
Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale, they say,
He was made of snow but the children
know how he came to life one day.
There must have been some magic in that
old silk hat they found.
For when they placed it on his head
he began to dance around.
O, Frosty the snowman
was alive as he could be,
And the children say he could laugh
and play just the same as you and me.
Thumpetty thump thump,
thumpety thump thump,
Look at Frosty go.
Thumpetty thump thump,
thumpety thump thump,
Over the hills of snow.
Frosty the snowman knew
the sun was hot that day,
So he said, "Let's run and
we'll have some fun
now before I melt away."
Down to the village,
with a broomstick in his hand,
Running here and there all
around the square saying,
Catch me if you can.
He led them down the streets of town
right to the traffic cop.
And he only paused a moment when
he heard him holler "Stop!"
For Frosty the snow man
had to hurry on his way,
But he waved goodbye saying,
"Don't you cry,
I'll be back again some day."
Thumpetty thump thump,
thumpety thump thump,
Look at Frosty go.
Thumpetty thump thump,
thumpety thump thump,
Over the hills of snow.
Full of Drink and Full of Meat
- Thomas Hood
Full of drink and full of meat,
On our SAVIOUR'S natal day,
CHARITY'S perennial treat;
Thus I heard a Pauper say: --
Ought not I to dance and sing
Thus supplied with famous cheer!
Heigho!
I hardly know --
Christmas comes but once a year.
After labour's long turmoil,
Sorry fare and frequent fast,
Two-and-fifty weeks of toil,
Pudding-time is come at last!
But are raisins high or low,
Flour and suet cheap or dear?
Heigho!
I hardly know --
Christmas comes but once a year.
Fed upon the coarsest fare
Three hundred days and sixty-four
But for one on viands rare,
Just as if I wasn't poor!
Ought not I to bless my stars,
Warden, clerk, and overseer?
Heigho!
I hardly know --
Christmas comes but once a year.
Treated like a welcome guest,
One of Nature's social chain,
Seated, tended on, and press'd --
But when shall I be press'd again
Twice to pudding, thrice to beef,
A dozen times to ale and beer?
Heigho!
I hardly know --
Christmas comes but once a year.
Come to-morrow how it will;
Diet scant and usage rough,
Hunger once has had its fill,
Thirst for once has had enough,
But shall I ever dine again?
Or see another feast appear?
Heigho!
I only know --
Christmas comes but once a year!
Frozen cares begin to melt,
Hopes revive and spirits flow --
Feeling as I have not felt
Since a dozen months ago --
Glad enough so sing a song --
To-morrow shall I volunteer?
Heigho!
I hardly know --
Christmas comes but once a year.
Bright and blessed is the time,
Sorrows end and joys begin,
While the bells with merry chime
Ring the Day of Plenty in!
But the happy tide to hail,
With a sigh or with a tear,
Heigho!
I hardly know --
Christmas comes but once a year!
Fum Fum Fum
- Ruth Heller
On December twenty-fifth,
Fum, fum, fum.
On December twenty-fifth,
Fum, fum, fum.
In a manger lowly there
was born this night a Little One,
Born of Mary blessed Mother;
like a small rose was God's.
Fum, fum, fum.
Let us praise our God above,
Fum, fum, fum.
Let us praise our God above,
Fum, fum, fum.
And for Christ, His Son, sent down
from heav'n our thanks to Him we raise!
Sing “Gloria in excelsis Deo”
on this day of days!
Fum, fum, fum.
