Twas the night before christmas, and all through the city
Not a creatue was stirring, not one single kitty.
Manx's stocking was placed on his head with care
In the hopes that this year, he would get some hair.
The Enforcers were tucked all snug in their beds,
While visions of promotions danced through their heads.
Jake was asleep and I hung up my cap,
Just settling down for a nice long kat-nap.
When out in the Yard, there arose such a clatter
I fell down the stairs to see what was the matter.
I kicked open the door and heard a loud crash
As something out there fell down in the trash.
I ran into the snow, and what did I find?
A really drunk kat of the Santa Claus kind.
He said, "Chance, you've always been good," and I blushed.
He was too drunk to remember all the heads I have flushed.
He went on and on about tonights deliveries,
His breath smelling like a stale eggnog breeze.
I called the North Pole and the elves sent a cab.
I then realized the problem I had.

Up on the roof was a huge bag of toys.

I decided that this was a job for "the boys".
I loaded the toys in the back of the jet,
And out of bed I told jake to get.

As T-Bone and Razor, we delivered the gifts.
And after each one, felt our spirits lift.
We were finally through at the dawn's early light.
We went back to the Hanger having ended our flight.
When we turned on the tube, what did we see,
But Ann Gora's face on our TV.

She told how the SWAT Kats saved Christmas time,
And I think here's the place to end this rhyme.
In the words of Santa, as the cab went out of sight,
"Merry Christmas to all, and don't drink at night!"
