In Lollypop Land.
In lollypop land there is a peppermint sea
beneath the shade of a chewing gum tree.
The grass that grows there is a spearmint green
and the blue of the sky is a heaven supreme.
You walk in the sand that is sugary white;
There are candy-tipped stars that shine down through the night.
In lollypop land there’s a fairy so sweet
just a calico queen, all shiny and neat.
A gingerbread house and a rock candy lane
with a red and white fence made of peppermint cane.
An orange-flavoured moon, by a cotton fluff cloud
And gay little elves who are happy and proud.
In lollypop land there is a marshmallow snow
and the scent of perfume in the breezes that blow.
It’s a little girl’s dream and a little boy’s delight
a Santa Claus land from morning to night.
A beautiful smile and a kind helping hand
and everyday is Christmas in lollypop land.
