Santa's Great Escape from Wookey Hole

Down Wookey Hole way...one unlucky Christmas day, Santa spied that his mouse was running away....

Out of his pocket, where his suit was worn,

The mouse had slipped out through a hole that was torn !

He followed his mouse through the Wookey wood,

Hot in pursuit, as fast as he could !

He nearly got stuck in the Wookey mud...

But Rudolph pulled him free, as all good reindeers should !

The mouse head beneath a Wookey Christmas tree...

Looking for nibbles to eat for his tea

Up hill and down dale, the naughty mouse left a wobbly trail ...

All along the Wookey forest floor,

Of crumbs lined up Wookily, by the score !

Like a Red Indian, Santa tracked behind,

Trying to see if his mouse, he could find....

Making his way back to the North Pole,

Santa's mouse head off down a Wookey hole.....

(to get away from the squirrel whose acorns he stole !)

Santa noticed inside, there was a spider,

He tried to take a look,

But unfortunately he was wider !

It was no good at all, he was stuck like a ball,

Chasing his mouse only three inches tall !

He huffed and puffed with all his might...

But Santa's belly was too tight to alight !

The wise, old owl had a brilliant idea...Santa must have a different suit to wear and ....

To make a chain and pull him out of there !

All of the gnomes lined up as one...

My word, Santa weighed an absolute ton !

It must have been that extra currant bun...

That made Santa put a pound or two on !
