How the Res Hall Stole Christmas

Every student up in Middlebrook liked Christmas alot...
But the administrators who lived below Middlebrook did NOT!

The Administrators hated Christmas!
The whole Christmas season!
Now, please don't ask why. No one quite knows the reason.
It could be that their heads weren't screwed on quite right.
It could be, perhaps, that the UDS budget was too tight.
But I think that the most likely reason of all, May have been that the doors were two sizes too small.

But,Whatever the reason,
The doors or something less evident,
They stood there on Christmas Eve,
hating each resident,
Staring up from their basement with a sour, beauracratic pall
At the warm lighted windows up above in their hall.
For he knew every resident up in Middlebrook above
Was busy now, hanging wrapping paper with love.

"And they're hanging their stockings!" They snarled with a sneer.
"Tomorrow is Christmas! It's practically here!
"Then they growled, with their fingers nervously drumming,
"I MUST find a way to keep Christmas from coming!"

So they wrote up and ordinance with great tack
and proclaimed paper taped on doors is fire hazard as a matter of fact.
"Christmas trees no more!
they bring in allergens galore."
"No one shall display cheery blinking lights,
to help with legalities when the building ignites."

As we walked past the desk we heard the adminstration mutter,
"Have a long winter break, and bring home your clutter."
