Song by Jessica Molaskey<br /><br>

WOMAN 2:<br>

I was just seventeen <br>

When you rode into town <br>

Just a girl full of fantasies and longing <br>

I saw you <br>

I knew I had to be with you <br>

<br>

Then you looked in my eyes <br>

And you asked me my name <br>

And I trembled before you like a baby <br>

Then gently I kissed you <br>

Who could resist you?<br>

You took my heart and soul <br>

<br>

And before I had a chance to take control <br>

We retired to your palace on the Pole <br>

Where we only had ourselves <br>

And the reindeer and the elves <br>

And a lot of things we never said <br>

About the life I could have led <br>

If I had had the sense to stay away <br>

<br>

But here we are Nick <br>

And so Nick <br>

I know it's time for you to go Nick <br>

I know by now I'll never claim you for my own <br>

I've been resigned to spend my Christmases alone <br>

And so au revoir Nick <br>

It's grand Nick <br>

I don't pretend to understand Nick <br>

I saw you look at Blitzen long and lovingly <br>

The way you used to look at me <br>

<br>

I have sat twenty years <br>

In this drafty retreat <br>

As the latest in the line of Mrs. Clauses <br>

I've sat here <br>

And wondered what you want from me <br>

But you sit by yourself <br>

On the couch in the den <br>

And you watch "Miracle on 34th Street"<br>

You get sad and dreamy <br>

Can't even see me <br>

Won't even say, "Hello!"<br>

<br>

Now you tell me that it's time for you to go <br>

Ha!<br>

Sling your sack upon your back and "Ho, ho, ho!"<br>

Ha!<br>

And what matters most of all <br>

Is to sit inside some mall <br>

And you never think of me <br>

While I am pining by the tree <br>

But never mind <br>

I will survive <br>

While you are gone <br>

<br>

I set you free, Nick <br>

Goodbye, Nick <br>

Go ride your reindeer through the sky, Nick <br>

I don't suppose you'll ever want me by your side <br>

I know you now <br>

You want a plaything, not a bride <br>

So on your way, Nick <br>

Shalom, Nick <br>

Don't feel the need to hurry home, Nick <br>

Should I want comfort in the cold and bitter storm <br>

I've got the elves to keep me warm <br>

<br>

Oh, oh, Nick, I didn't mean it. I'm just going crazy all cooped up in here! Oh, Nick, I mean, come on, I'm not even German.<br>

Please take me with you. Please! I'm your wife damn it. Isn't there one once of human decency buried beneath all those layers<br>

of fat? You disgust me! Oh yes, It's so easy to judge, isn't it? Deciding who's naughty and who's nice? Well, who died and<br>

left you God, Mr. Claus? Hmph.<br>

<br>

But never mind, Nick <br>

Okay, Nick <br>

I hate to keep you from your sleigh, Nick <br>

When you return I will be many miles away <br>

I'll have my lawyer call your lawyer <br>

New Years Day!<br>

<br>

That's all from me, Nick <br>

Gain way, Nick <br>

I'll miss you less than I can say, Nick <br>

Have fun with all the little boys along the route <br>

I'll get the mansion and the factory to boot <br>

I will not wait until the snow beneath me thaws <br>

I will escape <br>

Your Santa claws!!<br>

<br>

<br>
