Nativity
Play by Gervase Phinn
Oh Miss, I don't want to be Joseph
Miss, I really don't want to be him,
With a cloak of bright red and a towel on my head
And a cotton wool beard on my chin.
Oh Miss, please don't make me a shepherd
I just won't be able to sleep.
I'll go weak at the knees and wool makes me sneeze
And I really am frightened of sheep.
Oh Miss, I just can't be the landlord
Who says there's no room at the Inn
I'll get a fright when it comes to the night
And I know that I'll let Mary in.
Oh Miss, you're not serious - an angel?
Can't Peter take that part instead?
I'll look such a clown in that white silky gown
And a halo stuck up on me head.
Oh Miss, I am not being a camel!
Or a cow or an ox or an ass!
I'll look quite absurd and I won't say a word,
And all of the audience will laugh!
Oh Miss, I'd rather not be a wise man
Who brings precious gifts from afar.
But the part right for me, and I hope you agree
In this play - can I be the star?

I keep
my Snowman in the Freezer by Ian McMillan
I keep
my snowman in the freezer
Just behind the pies
He likes it there, he told me so
I can see it in his eyes.
I made him on a cold, cold morning
When the snow was fresh and deep
Now he sits in the freezer
Near the fish that we got cheap.
I keep my snowman in the freezer
And look at him each day.
If I'd left him in the garden
He'd simply have melted away.
But now he's like my Grandma
Living somewhere safe and nice;
He's in a frosty, snowy palace
On a throne of coldest ice.
I keep my snowman in the freezer
Near a lump of frozen beef
And I've got a treat for him in August:
I'm taking him to Tenerife!
