European Christmas Market
Life is busy around Albert Square
In December every year
Christmas market in full swing
For shopping and a glass of beer
Stalls are cluttered one by one
Amid the crowded streets
Vendors displaying their festive wares
In order to compete
Christmas music in the background
To put one in the mood
Aroma of bratwurst sizzling on the coals
Pangs of hunger need some food
People always in a hurry
Last minute presents to buy
Gifts from all over Europe
To tempt the shoppers eye
Energy and money both well spent
To depart it's almost time
But not before a Christmas toast
With a mug of hot mulled wine
