Silly Poems and Rhymes #83 – When Santa Got Stuck
When Santa got stuck up the chimney,
He began to shout,
You girls and boys,
Won’t get any toys,
If you don’t pull me out.
“My beard is black,
There’s soot in my sack,
My nose is tickling too!”
When Santa got stuck up the chimney,
Achoo! Achoo! Achoo!

“Let us fly!” said the flea.
So they flew through a flaw in the flue.
