minimal re-entry heat damage 
and a poison cookie detector
HO HO HO!

yea that red nose reindeer with white tail antlers mule deer body a fly high attitude notions and a  w c fields red honker!
he didn't last long
i hear he's picking up a few sideline gigs ... scale or less
one or two seasonal cartoons a claymation short documentry 
HO HO HO!
he was always complaining about one thing or another ...
paid time off
better room and board
union
no heavy loads 
to tell the truth ... i think he did the BIG C or maybe he juiced
i don't know!
don't get me to lying!
HO HO HOs they are all HOs

why not? you lie to the kids
pretending to bring gifts toys and new underwear
comin down the chimney ... not your fat a*s!
BIG C? yeah right! not on the wages you pay ... do they get perdium?
and how about the toy makers
i hear they work in sweat shops ... not sweat exactly but you know
never get a raise always have an impossible deadline
and worst of all? cold cold cold working conditions

now hold on troublemaker what makes you a business expert?

i have a painting company
houses barns cars custom train car graffiti ... and fences my favorite
not whitewash but glidden ... top shelf!
i hear you have slave labor and a up the river guide service!

NO! NOT SLAVE LABOR!

so look ... i got some rock star greenery
or how bout some russian red but i must warn ya
inferiority and short man syndrome are side effects
and some cheap cheap cheap alabama ditch weed

i grow my own pal i grow my own ... white lights ... northern lights ... summer sun
green krack ... bubble gum ... o g diesel
i got the lights!
but i will take some reds
