Have You Seen Him

Have You Seen Him
Words & Music by Eugene Records/Barbara Ackin

One year ago today, I was happy as a lark.
I got some great stuff for Christmas, to play with in the front yard
or maybe at the park.
With my new telescope, I could see all the way down the street
and watch the children play, huh
You know tomorrow a late package from Grandma might arrive,
Then another happy day.
Although this year dark clouds all gather around me, huh
The parents seem to all know my name.
A few things turned up missing, Some bad practical jokes,
And a few kids felt a bit of unnessicairy pain.
Now I know I can hide from a policeman, but from Santa’s sight
I shouldn’t have tried.
I keep sayin’ I didn’t do, but of course he knows I lied.

Oh, No presents for me, no matter where I look. Under the tree no lousy socks or even a book
Have seen him, Tell me have you seen him.
Oh, I hear sleigh bell as the cold wind blows,
In the sweet Christmas music on the radio
Have you see him, Tell me have you seen him.

Why oh why, Did I not believe when, Santa said.
He’d see when I’m sleeping, He’d know when I was awake
Now it’s my loss, I should have been good for goodness sake.

Doo doo doo, Doo doo doo, Doo doo doo doo doo.
Have you seen him, Tell me have you seen him.
Doo doo doo, Doo doo doo, Doo doo doo doo doo.
Have you seen him, Tell me have you seen him.

Oh, I take back the punch I left on Bobby’s lip
I’m sorry ‘bout the dent in the neighbors car.
Have you seen him, Tell me have you seen him.
Oh, maybe Mom’s back hand reaching out to me.
Would change Santa’s mind to leave some gifts for free.
Have you seen him, Tell me have you seen him.

Why oh why, did I not believe when, Santa said.
He’s gonna find out if I’ve naughty, He’s knows if I’ve been nice.
So now I’m getting nada, No matter, how cheap the price.

Doo doo doo, Doo doo doo, Doo doo doo doo doo.
Have you seen him, Tell me have you seen him.

Another day comes to an end, I’m lookin’ But still I ain’t got nothing
Any kind of gift or toy, But with all the people I’ve made mad, hmm.
I’m just a present less boy.
You know it’s funny, I thought I had Santa in the palm of my hand.
Have you seen him, Tell me have you seen him.

Have you seen him, Tell me have you seen him.
