Dashing through the store,
In an oh-so-panicked way.
Must get it done before,
They are home to stay.
No, No, No.
No more time alone,
Not a minute to myself,
Being home twenty-four-seven,
Is hazardous to their health.
Oh, Jingle Bells! Christmas spells,
Two weeks off from school.
No more books,
Just dirty looks,
The holidays are cruel.
Oh, Jingle Bells! Mommy smells,
Trouble brewing soon.
Screaming, fighting,
Hitting, biting,
Mommy’s drinking before noon.
