'Twas the night before Christmas
And in my garage,
There wasn't a trace of an Audi or Saab.
The presents were wrapped and the lights were all lit,
So I figured I'd go mess with my TI for a bit.
I popped the release and I lifted the hood,
When a deep voice behind me said "Looks pretty good."
Well as you can imagine, I turned mighty quick,
And there by my workbench, stood good Ol' Saint Nick!
He just stared at first, not sure what to say,
Then Santa piped in "Don't suppose you'd trade that for my sleigh?'
"Forget it, Mr. Claus" then I started to grin -
"If you've got some time, we could go for a spin!"
His round little mouth, all tied up like a bow,
Burst into a smile when he said "C'mon then, Let's GO!!"
So as not to disturb all my neighbors' retreat,
We pushed my compact quietly onto the street.
Then, while taking our place to drift down the hill,
I turned on the key, and then let the clutch spill.
The sound erupted and took Santa by surprise,
But he liked it a lot, by the look in his eyes.
With cold tires spinning and the exhaust all aglow,
We headed out to roads only hot rodders know.
And Santa's grin widened, approaching his ears,
With every shift up as I went through the gears.
Then he yelled "Can't recall when I've felt so alive!"
So I backed off the gas and said "Do you wanna drive?"
Ol' Santa was stunned when I gave him the keys,
As he walked past the headlights he shook at the knees!
Then the s50 exploded with sweet exhaust sound!
Santa had let out the clutch and tires tore up the ground.
Power shift into second, again into third!
I grabbed the oh **** handle, at loss for a word.
With the tank reached empty, with a twinkle in his eye,
He said "I'll never to forget it, your sweet swapped TI..."
Later, I heard him exclaim, as he blasted from sight,
"Merry Christmas, to all,
it's been one heck of a night!!!"
Merry Christmahanakwanzikafestivusolstice..... Oh crap, I give up....
