I welcome the Holiday Season  
No -- I cannot give but one reason  
the reasons are many  
Let's start with Aunt Jenny  
who just got paroled out of prison

And please don't forget Uncle Bob  
and Billie, who can't get a job  
and most of all Bunny  
who still owes me money  
but claims he must first pay the mob

Yes, Christmas is big in our house  
Aunt Jenny is bringing her spouse  
A famous pickpocket  
He comes from Nantucket  
and hasn't been caught yet, the louse

Come in, please, and share in our joy.  
The relatives tend to annoy  
But lest you forget  
you can't choose them --- yet.  
Oh, you brought little Jimmy a toy.
