Bonanza’s On
(An Ode to Christmas)
(Think “Jingle Bells”)
The eighth day of December
I still don't have a tree
I haven't bought a single gift
Now what is wrong with me?
No Christmas cards I've written
My kids think I'm insane
No stockings hung
No baking done
There's just one thing to blame –
Chorus:
Bonanza's on, Bonanza's on
Bonanza's on tonight!
Oh, what fun it is to watch
The family we call Cart - wright!
Who needs a tree? Forget the mall!
A gift card's just as nice!
On Christmas Day, we'll eat Chinese –
Bo - nan - za's on to - night!
YEE-HAW and Happy Holidays!
