Songdrops – Skunkles The Christmas Skunk lyrics

He's Santa's furry friend.
He saved Santa from a sad end.
If you don't know yet,
Just how they met,
Then it's a good time to begin.
If you've heard the story, listen once again.

They met a long time ago,
When Santa's sleigh got stuck in the snow.
The reindeer couldn't lift it,
And they couldn't even shift it.
It was getting late and Santa had to go,
To spread the Christmas glow.

Then he saw Skunkles by a tree.
A little skunk as cute as could be.
He said, "Hey there, furry friend,
With the not-so-fragrant end.
I think you might be the key,
That can help my sleigh break free."

Skunkles the Christmas skunk.
Skunkles the Christmas skunk.
He rides on the sleigh,
And he tries not to spray.
Without him Santa would've been sunk.
He's Skunkles the Christmas skunk.

Skunkles said, "What can I do?
It would be an honour to help you."
Santa said, "Well,
I think your smell,
Might give the deer something new,
To break free from the heavy snow glue."

Skunkles said, "I'll do my best,
Though it will be a difficult test."
He walked to the sled,
So bright and red,
And said, "Santa, may I suggest,
That you hold your breath and give your nose a rest?"

Skunkles the Christmas skunk.
Skunkles the Christmas skunk.
He's Santa's copilot,
Though he never gets to fly it.
Without him Santa would've been sunk.
He's Skunkles the Christmas skunk.

Santa gave the A-OK,
So he sprayed a big spray by the sleigh.
The reindeer found the power,
To escape the sour flower.
Now they could get on their way.
Santa said, "How can I repay?"

Skunkles looked a little bit sad.
He said, "This was the best night I've ever had.
I'm kind of all alone,
And don't really have a home,
But tonight I helped Santa, not bad."
Santa said, "Come with us, little lad."

Skunkles the Christmas skunk.
Skunkles the Christmas skunk.
Now he has a home,
And he never feels alone.
Without him Santa would've been sunk.
He's Skunkles the Christmas skunk.

Skunkles the Christmas skunk.
Skunkles the Christmas skunk.
He wears a Santa hat,
Just picture that.
Without him Santa would've been sunk.
He's Skunkles the Christmas skunk.
