Do you think they’ll notice?
Do you think they’ll see?
The one that hides inside
The stocking near the tree

He traveled down the chimney
Santa dropped him in the chute
Then he jumped into the silken sock
Looking magical, to boot

Hanging from the mantle
Adorned with holly leaves
Trying not to make a sound
Hoping they’ll believe

He keeps a silent vigil
Careful not to shakes the bells
He dare not wake the slumber
Of the family that dwells

So he’ll wait until the morning
In hopes they’ll keep him for awhile
For he is a Christmas Dragon
With a mischievous little smile
