Hey I got you something
and I hid it super good
you would not think to look for presents
where I put these little treasures
every year I get more clever
and put gifts every wherever
I got stuff for my whole family
in a boot under a tree
I even hid some stuff for me
wait I hid lots of stuff for me
in the dumpster behind Walgreens
I hid a ham for my friend tony
in a bag inside his trunk
after I took his keys
suggesting he was far too
egg nog drunk
And then I hid his keys
behind a book real high up on his shelf
I cannot wait to give them to him
when he finds them there himself
I hid webcams for my friend colin
in several rooms inside his house
I hooked them up so i can see his
reaction when he finds out
I hid a free meal from red lobster in my friend Karen's garage
Nathan's gift is that I painted his cool bike all camouflage
I hid a stack of money in that little drawer under Mom's stove
Matt had crazy gifts so I hid him an off-season park commode
You would not think to look for presents
where I put these little treasures
every year i get more clever
& put gifts every wherever
it's my holiday endeavor
there should just be gifts everywhere
And my sister's got more presents hidden at my neighbors place
they're upstairs in the bedroom closet in an antique jewelry case
and my dad has got some presents in a car I saw on main
though I should probably hide them elsewhere in case that car gets moved again
and my mom has got more presents hidden all over the town
it will take her years of shopping just to track all of them down
but I hid the greatest gift of all for my dear lady friend
who's been hinting she would love a little animal companion
& how could she guess that wrapped up tight under her tree right now
is exactly . . .
you would not think to look for presents
where I put these little treasures
every year I get more clever
and put gifts every wherever
