It's been a couple of years since this was last published, so I thought it was time to bring it back...
Twas the week before Christmas and all through the state
Liquor stores are stocking and setting the bait
All the neon's were hung in the windows with care
In hopes that all customers would soon would be there
If you go in an off sale and see all the elves
they'll be busy with displays and filling the shelves
Should I buy Uncle Bill that bottle of Brandy
and Aunt Sandy some wine and some very good candy
I think I'll get Dad a bottle of Gin
and brother Joe some rum and he will grin
Others come in and just buy some beer
That's all it takes to create holiday cheer
The salespeople are arriving and pitching their deals
and the managers heads are filled as they are spinning their wheels
It doesn't feel like winter; as the temp is fine
but the customers still find it necessary to whine
People come in to purchase their wine
Should it be red or white with which we dine?
As others are blessed with a week's vacation
We are prepared to sell them some libation
As our year comes to a close we look at our books
We wonder .... "in our council's eyes how we will looks??
We hope to end our year better than the last
If that happens we will just have a blast
As you close and lock your doors when it is time to go home
You wonder "Where will they build the new dome?"
Okmm.That's the best I can do!
I wish everyone reading this a safe and happy holiday season
