The night before Xmas I was trying to help
Tried to iron but burnt a shirt and then
Tried to help cook I spilled the soup
Then I thought I am not good enough so I tried again
Kept trying and trying but it didn’t work
I forgot about the tree and fell into it
And now I have to find something I am good at
But then I thought really really hard and remembered
I don’t have to be a good cook or a master at ironing
The simplest thing that I can be good at is being myself
