It was Christmas Eve and the house was asleep
I heard a noise downstairs, and went to take a peep
It was Santa! He was there!
With his nose all plump and red
He heard me there behind him,
And turned around and said:
Little girl don’t be afraid I’m here to take you home.
You’ll live with me at the North Pole in a new time zone.
I tried to run away, but before I could look back
Santa picked me up so fast and threw me in his sack!
When I woke up I was dressed in green,
Didn’t recognize myself
And suddenly I realized, I’d been turned into an elf!
So now I’m here at the North Pole, I’m getting used to it
I’m making toys and getting along
With all the other missing kids.
