Once green the ground, now glistens in white

The full moon reflects, she shines ever bright

Tree branches sway, in the wind, to and fro

As they dance to the magic, of Christmas snow

Dressed in dazzling uniforms, they march in perfect formation

Watch, as they begin the dance, creating an incredible sensation

Wooden Soldiers have come to life, can you imagine the surprise

Of little children, staring in awe, oh! The wonder in their eyes!!

It didn’t matter where she went
She always dressed the same
A tomboy, through and through
Thought all the girls were lame

Tied up shoes, with brass buttons
Blue bobby socks in her boots
Didn’t make her look the part
In fact, she looked real cute

Wowed the boys around her
Every one of them couldn’t wait
To find out who she had chosen
To take to the prom, as her date

Each day, they’d sit and wonder
As the date for the dance drew near
Then she told them where to meet her
So she could tell them all, quite clear

They stood there, waiting, hoping
They’d be the one to win the pearl
Every heart, she broke that day
For she’d always be daddy’s girl

Oh goodness, what a terrible sight

When they finally turned on the light

There was dust everywhere

But they just did not care

Turned on music and danced with a mite

Clyde was a dapper ole chap
Donned in his favorite top hat
Lived in a tux, all year round
The ladies thought he was all that

Each one trying to win his hand
At the dance club, they would spin
Pirouetting about him, oh, so grand
Made Clyde feel like the kingpin

Dancing away, the night grew short
One by one, the ladies departed
Poor Clyde was left, standing alone
Feeling quite low, and downhearted

Until he realized what he could do
Yes! The dance floor was all his own
Clicking to the beat, step one, step two
Tapped his way back, to the Antarctic zone
