Walkin’ in a Winter Wonderland

By Kevin



Winter Wonderland

Be sure to sing along with the music! 🙂

Registers ring, are you listening,
In the lane, cards are glistening
A wonderful sight,
We’re spending tonight
Walking in a shopper’s wonderland.

Gone away is my money,
There’s nothing left, for my honey
Her face is long,
But we go along,
Walking in a shopper’s wonderland.

In the meadow we can build a snowman,
Then pretend that he is Dave Ramsey

He’ll say: Are you debt-free?
We’ll say: No man,
But you can help us out
When you’re in town.

Later on, we’ll conspire,
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid,
The plans that we’ve made,
Walking in a shopper’s wonderland.

In the meadow we can build a snowball,
And pretend that he’s a debt snowball
We’ll have lots of fun with our new pet,
And watch him knock down all of our debt.

When there’s sales, ain’t it thrilling,
Though your wallet needs a filling
We’ll frolic and play, the debt-free way,
Far away from the shopper’s wonderland.

    Ha ha ha, I so badly wish I could see snow this year, sadly Egypt has the shops but not the snow and I wish it was the other way round.

    I do look forward to seeing the tanned skinny Egyptian’s dressed as Santa in the local malls though!
