Like a most improbable dream

But you must believe when I tell you this

It's as real as my skull and it does exist

Here, let me show you.

Ooh!

This is a thing called a present

The whole thing starts with a box

- A box - Is it steel - Are there locks

- Is it filled with a pox - A pox, how delightful, a pox

If you please.

Just a box with bright colored paper

And the whole thing's topped with a bow

- A bow - But why - How ugly - What's in it, what's in it

That's the point of the thing Not to know

- It's a bat - Will it bend - It's a rat - Will it break

Perhaps it's the head that I found in the lake

Listen now You don't understand

That's not the point of Christmasland

Is there anywhere we've forgotten to check?

I looked in every mausoleum.
