Dear Santa, Please Grant My Wish
Dear Santa, this is little Jimmy
I'm sending you my list,
These are not every day wishes
So, I'm going to do my best.
Please bring a white chip for daddy
To remind him what AA is all about,
It's not a prize for all of his drinking
But to see if he can do without.
Please bring a coffin for my Uncle Joe
To remind him where he might be,
If he doesn't quit smoking soon
He won't be around for me.
And bring my sister a pretty wardrobe
She's been called, umm a floozy,
I don't know what that is or means
But I'm sure it's a doozy.
And last but not least, my mom
Can you bring her a bag full of kisses and hugs,
I don't have enough to make her stop
From taking all those dangerous drugs.
If you can grant my wishes Santa
You will certainly be the best,
I don't need anything for me
I couldn't ask for anything less.
