(But It Will, Thanks To Coach Rudolph, That Crafty Reindeer)

Central News Service Exclusive: The “Rudolph song” lyrics needed to change in 2020

At the North Pole, things weren’t quite right.
Trouble was brewing, soon to be a fight.
Most of the reindeer had gotten out of hand;
And Santa, poor soul, couldn’t understand.

First up, Dasher made fun of Prancer,
Said he wasn’t a very good dancer.
Teasing him in an unmerciful way,
Prancer got dizzy, started to swoon and sway.

Then Donner told a joke on Cupid,
“Santa’s going to change your name to Stupid.”
And when Cupid didn’t know what to say,
Donner said, “Can’t wait to be pullin’ that sleigh!”

Then Comet did much the same with Vixen,
That’s when hoofs started flyin’ from Blitzen.
Alas, a big fight was about under way,
Until Rudolph knew just what to say.

Do you think Santa knew what to do?
I can tell you he didn’t have a clue.
Should I ask them
