St. Nevercomes Day

“Can I have a pony?” to Daddy I say.
“Of course you can, Sweetie, next St. Nevercomes Day.”
“And a big red stable, and piles of hay?”
“I’ll have it built by St. Nevercomes Day.”

St. Nevercomes Day, St. Nevercomes Day,
I hope you come soon, then I’ll shout “Hooray!”
I’ll get everything that I’ve asked for that day,
I can’t hardly wait for St. Nevercomes Day.

When I ask my Daddy for something I’d like,
A pink unicorn, or a new motorbike,
My Daddy will look at me sideways then say,
“Of course you can, Sweetie, next St. Nevercomes Day.”

St. Nevercomes Day, St. Nevercomes Day,
I hope you come soon, then I’ll shout “Hooray!”
I’ll get everything that I’ve asked for that day,
I can’t hardly wait for St. Nevercomes Day.

I search through the calendar trying to find,
The date for St. Nevercomes Day underlined.
But I just cannot find it, I’m left in the lurch--
I can’t even find it when I Google search.

St. Nevercomes Day, St. Nevercomes Day,
I hope you come soon, then I’ll shout “Hooray!”
I’ll get everything that I’ve asked for that day,
I can’t hardly wait for St. Nevercomes Day.

I hope it comes soon, I don’t think I can last.
I hope that St. Nevercomes Day comes pretty fast.
I’ve told all my friends what I’ll get, and they say, “No way!”
But I’m gonna show them on St. Nevercomes Day.

St. Nevercomes Day, St. Nevercomes Day,
I hope you come soon, then I’ll shout “Hooray!”
I’ll get everything that I’ve asked for that day,
I can’t hardly wait for St. Nevercomes Day.
