The population was booming
Santa’s sleigh was zooming
More and more people were being added to the naughty list
But Santa knew there were still a lot of good that couldn’t be missed
He worked extra minutes into the long night
He barely finished before the sun’s first light
Then he thought, next year I must do something else
I can’t keep working like this, doing this to myself
Then right before his tired and sleepy body hit the bed
A crazy idea, too crazy he thought, popped into his head
I need to find some magical helpers to help me
Magical helpers who could even deliver before Christmas Eve
He smiled at the thought, presents delivered every day
He could just feel the weight coming off his sleigh
He wondered what the world would think of his wonderful scheme
Then he went to sleep and had the most wonderful dream
He put his plan together all year long
There was no way his plan could go wrong
He put it into action well before October’s last day
Christmas was here before trick or treat the kids could say
Sale, sale, sale, the biggest sale of the year
He flooded your inbox with emails disguised as cheer
Buy now, order now before you run out of time
Trust me, kids, there’s no reason to wait in line
You see, Santa’s elves had finished their making by June
Santa worked them so hard that the North Pole ran out of room
So they shipped everything and everything was gone
They sent all their gifts to a magical place called Amazon
Santa’s idea was going as planned and working perfectly
This year, he wouldn’t have to go down one single chimney
Santa called all his magical helpers headquarters
They said they were ready and awaited their orders
Then the orders came in and they hit the roads
Delivering Santa’s gifts in sun, rain, sleet, and snow
You know them as Amazon, UPS, USPS, and FedEx
Delivering Santa’s gifts right to your doorstep
Be sure to thank those who deliver near and far
Because now you know who they truly are
They are more than just drivers, they are Santa’s magical helpers
I sure hope they don’t bring me an ugly Christmas sweater
So if Christmas Eve comes and Santa’s sleigh and reindeer aren’t in sight
Thank his magical helpers who already brought your gifts before tonight
