*The Brown's Night Before Christmas*

T'was the night before Christmas,
our dog was tearing up the house.
Our dog thinks everything is a chew toy,
he even caught and start chewing a dead mouse.

My mom sawing logs on the couch,
and my dad wish he seen green grass.
Our dog bites my dad on the ankle,
now my dad is going to kick his ass.

And I in my bedroom,
listening to my music with the bass up high.
Drinking beer on my bed,
and trying to pass out for the third straight time.

My brother is driving in the driveway,
and we saw smoke and heard a huge clatter.
My dad sprange from his chair,
to see what was the matter.

My brother hopped out of his car,
and released his hood.
Trying to put the fire,
and doing the best he could.

You can see the engine,
as the smoke rolled out of sight.
My brother said,"Hey, Dad."
"You shouldn't avoid those warning lights!"

So my brother and my dad awake
my mom from the couch.
Because it's time to load her car,
and go to grandma's house.

So off to grandma's house we go,
to open up presents, and eat a big meal.
Breaking a few laws going down the road,
by wearing no seat belts and drinking beer inside the vehicle.

Then came a big mass of cold,
and all of sudden came a blizzard of snow.
My dad was getting pretty lit,
swerving on and off the road.

We made it to grandma's house,
and surprisingly no one died.
So," Merry Christmas to all!"
"And remember, don't avoid those warning lights!"
