Today I found Christmas paper
In a bargain store's bargain bin
I hadn't started my wrapping
So at least now I could begin
As I tried to wrap the first gift
The paper almost split in two
It was thinner than I'd expected
But for now it would have to do
So I taped over the split bit
In the hope that no-one could tell
Then a bit of tape stuck to a corner
And tore a piece off that as well
I ripped and scrunged it in temper
And stamped on it with a cruel grin
Never again will I be fooled
By a bargain shop's bargain bin.
