Drown Them In a Pail

Oh, Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree!

The cats will break you

They plot and scheme,
they lurk, and pounce.

I hope they don't tip you.

They chew your bows,
they take your stuff

When will they,
have had enough?

They are cruel,
this I know!

As they have eaten,
every ribbon and bow.

Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree!

The swearing's not aimed at you,
the cursing's not meant for you.

It's those blasted cats,
that are mine.

I curse and swear,
to no avail.

Makes me want,
to drown them in a pail.

Oh Christmas tree oh Christmas tree!
Your patience, amazes me.
