Oh, Christmas Tree, what do you have for me?Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
I wonder what’s under there for me
Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
The wrapping paper shines so brightly

Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
With pretty lights looking divine
Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
With pretty parcels that are just mine

Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
If I gently touch, sniff and tease
Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
I hope it’s a catnip mouse , please, please please!

Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
With sparkly tinsel and shining bells
Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
I've batted each one and given them hell!

Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
I’m looking forward to tender turkey
Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
Thinly sliced, a seasonal treat just for me!

Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
If I extend my quivering paw
Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
Do not rustle when my present I claw

Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
As quietly I start to pull it out towards me
Oh, Christmas tree, oh,Christmas tree
And tear at the paper silently, anxiously

Another sparkly Day-Glo collarOh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
It’s not a catnip mouse wrapped up here
Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
It’s another Day-Glo collar, my worst fear

Oh, Christmas tree ,oh, Christmas tree
I must have been a really bad cat
Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
To receive a rubbish present like that!

Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
My Christmas hopes lie in tatters
Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree
Let’s see what Santa brings, now that’s all that matters!

A Cats Purr

"Cats make one of the most satisfying sounds in the world: they purr ...

A purring cat is a form of high praise, like a gold star on a test paper. It is reinforcement of something we would all like to believe about ourselves - that we are nice."

Roger A Caras
