| No In at the Room: Jonny's Place on Christmas Eve |
| Whose room this is I think I know. Its floor is somewhere down below. You can't get in at all from here With all the clothes and toys and so. |
| My Jonny seems to think it queer To want that floor to reappear, From under clothes and crumbs and cake His favorite evening of the year. |
| He gives his head a doubting shake To ask if there's not some mistake. But no, Dad wants to hear the sweep Of broom on crumb and frosted flake. |
| The pile of clothes and toys is deep But chores are chores and talk is cheap. So clean your room, then off to sleep. Yes, clean your room, then off to sleep. |
