Flying Lemming - Christmas Card Cramps lyrics

Now Christmas card writing I have Begun So I get my pen and start card number one: ‘Merry Christmas to all that you hold dear And the warmest of wishes for the new year I hope that you and your life are well And you'll have a healthy and wealthy spell Best wishes to you and your family Kindest regards as ever, from me' The envelope licked and the card sealed inside By card number five I‘ve lessoned my stride: ‘I hope that you and your life is well And you'll have a health and wealthy spell Best wishes to you and your family Kindest regards as ever, from me' I carry on more at a fairly strong rate But the lines become less by card number eight: ‘Best wishes to you and your family Kindest regards as ever, from me' By now I am feeling less than keen So when it comes to number fifteen When they open it up all they will see Is: ‘Happy Christmas, from me' Many cards later I have a bad cramp Think next year I'll just get a stamp
