Ladies and gentlemen
\nWhat you, have to know
\nIs that druidic History
\nFrom me does flow
\nThe banter of Santa
\nCame from the green man
\nWith a bush for a face
\nWell that was the plan<\/p>\n
The Norse God Odin
\nHad a white beard
\nHad very good eye sight<\/p>\n
For his horse he steered
\nUp into the sky
\nAt Yule so they say
\nAnd children gave him gifts
\nAll Along the way<\/p>\n
Now we see obviously
\nWhat happened here
\nThey pinched the story
\nThats very clear
\nThe green man was green
\nFather Christmas became
\nRed with a cotton wool beard
\nYea the same<\/p>\n
Eighty four years ago
\nSome bloke said he
\nKnew Santa Claus loved the drink
\nThe CC
\nOf course coca cola
\nAlso red and white
\nLoad up a sack
\nAnd ride though the night<\/p>\n
Over the forest lit by the moon
\nDown there in clumps fly agaric
\nIn tune
\nred with white spots on
\nAmonita by chance
\nIt attracts those who fly to an
\nIbotenic romance<\/p>\n
In Stone Henge
\nThe great granite
\nstructure of olde
\nWith the castle in ruins
\nOn a new one I’m sold<\/p>\n
A dram of the hard stuff
\nAnd oat porridge too
\nOn a cold frosty night
\nDoes great things for you<\/p>\n
I be a new member
\nOf the Cotswold DO
\nTeaching my druid friends
\nAll that I know<\/p>\n
Thats why I studied for
\nAll of my days
\nSo you lot can offer me
\nA portion of praise<\/p>\n
And what of the mistletoe
\nHow come its here
\nAnd its very druidic
\nWell its very clear<\/p>\n
Its called VISCUM al.BUM
\nAnd apparently it
\nCan thank a wee bird
\nWho is having a poo
\nA scratching
\n the bark
\nWith their talons and we
\nFind the spore of the flower
\nWhere it shouldn’t be<\/p>\n
Lodged under the bark to grow
\nWhen it can
\napple and lime
\nPoplar’s a fan
\nYou see once again
\nHow all this began<\/p>\n
The doctrine of signatures
\nPossibly you
\nHave heard about them
\nWhich is why it is true
\nWe get kissed if we are lucky
\nUnder a bunch
\nAs for me I’M the bard
\nAll I do is eat lunch<\/p>\n
And write a few odes
\nThats the job I am afraid
\nLike the white bulls in time
\nOf course I shall fade
\nOut of your lives
\nDIOeciously me
\nHappy yule pull the wool
\nOver all eyes
\nAnd be<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
