The Selfish Elf Who Sat Himself On The Shelf
[Verse 1] In Santa’s busy workshop, where magic’s made each day, There was an elf named Eddie, who always found a way, To skip his work and slack around, his toys were poorly made, And Christmas morning, boys and girls were left sad and dismayed. [Chorus] Oh, the selfish elf who sat himself on the shelf, Didn’t care for anyone but himself. His toys would break and bring such tears, Ruining the joy of Christmas cheer. [Verse 2] Santa saw the trouble caused, and knew just what to do, He told off Eddie, stern and firm, “There’s much to fix for you.” In a huff, Eddie sat himself upon a shelf so high, Santa had an idea then, and gave a hearty sigh. [Chorus] Oh, the selfish elf who sat himself on the shelf, Didn’t care for anyone but himself. His toys would break and bring such tears, Ruining the joy of Christmas cheer. [Bridge] Santa shelved the broken toys, and said, “Eddie, here’s the deal, You’ll stay up there and mend each one, till all the toys are real.” As days went by, poor Eddie did try, to fix each toy with care, He saw the smiles his work could bring, the love that he could share. [Chorus] Oh, the selfish elf who sat himself on the shelf, Now he cares for everyone but himself. His toys are strong and bring such cheer, Spreading joy this time of year. [Verse 3] He learned his lesson, mended heart, and vowed he’d never be, A selfish elf who ruined joy, he’d help bring Christmas glee. Now Eddie’s a hero in the shop, his heart is full of pride, No broken toys, just laughter now, and happiness worldwide. [Chorus] Oh, the selfish elf who sat himself on the shelf, Now he cares for everyone but himself. His toys are strong and bring such cheer, Spreading joy this time of year. [Outro] Christmas is saved, the lesson clear, With love and care, there’s naught to fear. So here’s to elves who give their all, Making Christmas bright for one and all. [Chorus] Oh, the selfish elf who sat himself on the shelf, Now he cares for everyone but himself. His toys are strong and bring such cheer, Spreading joy this time of year.
