Santa Daisy (with apologies to Eartha Kitt)
Santa Daisy, just slip a new spade under the tree,
for me.
Been an aw-ful good girl,
Santa Daisy, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Santa Daisy, and let me get a landscaping crew,
won’t you?
I’ll make it up to you dear,
Santa Daisy, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Think of all the fun I’ve missed.
Think of all the times that we haven’t kissed.
Next year life could be really good,
if you’d hire out my gardening list.
Santa Daisy, I want it bought,
and really that’s not a lot.
Been an angel all year,
Santa Daisy, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Santa Daisy, there’s one little thing I really need,
the weeds,
pulled from all the beds now,
Santa Daisy, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Santa Daisy, please fix my garden it’s such a wreck,
one check.
Sign your X on the line,
Santa Daisy, and hurry down the chimney tonight.
Come and trim my cherry tree,
With some big long loppers bought at Tiffany.
I really do believe I’m screwed,
Let’s see if you believe it too.
Santa Daisy, forgot to mention one little thing,
porch fling.
It’s just one little loan,
Santa Daisy, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
I’d love to see a vocal version come out for next year! I’d send it to all my gardener friends!
Ha! The dogs assure you–after hearing me sing it many, many times over the past couple of days–that you would not enjoy my screeching vocals. But if I could sing, I wish I’d thought to YouTube it with a dancing daisy. LOL
Girl, you are ever so clever!!! Love the photo, the words, the imagery, the laughing….FUN! Happy Holidays to you, Kelly
That is good, and yes, where is the musical version of this? Any UTube debuts coming up?
Merry Christmas to you my blogging friend. I really hope that you get what you wish for.
