'Twas the night before Christmas and Santa's a wreck...How to live in a world that's politically correct?
And as for the gifts, why, he'd ne'er had a notionThat making a choice could cause so much commotion.
Nothing of leather, nothing of fur,Which meant nothing for him. And nothing for her.
Nothing that might be construed to pollute.Nothing to aim. Nothing to shoot.
Nothing that clamored or made lots of noise.Nothing for just girls. Or just for the boys.
Nothing that claimed to be gender specific.Nothing that's war-like or non-pacific.
No candy or sweets...they were bad for the tooth.Nothing that seemed to embellish a truth.
And fairy tales, while not yet forbidden,Were like Ken and Barbie, better off hidden.
For they raised the hackles of those psychologicalWho claimed the only good gift was one ecological.
No baseball, no football...someone could get hurt;Besides, playing sports exposed kids to dirt.
Dolls were said to be sexist, and should be passe;And Nintendo would rot your entire brain away.
So Santa just stood there, disheveled, perplexed;He just could not figure out what to do next.
His sack was quite empty, limp to the ground;Nothing fully acceptable was to be found.
Something special was needed, a gift that he mightGive to all without angering the left or the right.
A gift that would satisfy, with no indecision,Each group of people, every religion;
Every ethnicity, every hue,Everyone, everywhere...even you.
So here is that gift, its price beyond worth..."May you and your loved ones enjoy peace on earth."
