Dad says that Christmas time is meant
For girls and boys.
He gladly yields money spent
To buy the toys.
This is a pleasure. he asserts;
But there is one expense that hurts.
Dad gives the servants goodly tips
For Christmas day.
Into his pocketbook he dips
In kindly way.
But he does hate to spend the dough
To buy a gift for sisters beau.
