What About His Nose

Look at my little guy
Isn't he a cutie?
This bouncing baby buck of mine
And his name is Rudy

He's quite a strapping reindeer
And it's very plain, dear
He has your grace and style
But he has his daddy's smile

Can't wait 'til he's old enough to play in reindeer games
Then one day he'll pull the sleigh with Santa and the reins

Oh, but what about, what about
What about his gleaming nose?
It has a healthy shine
Aha, he absolutely glows

What about, what about
What about his beaming nose?

Look at my little guy
With his angelic grin
So cuddly and snuggly
He's sharper than a pin

He's such a special reindeer
Here's a candy cane, dear
Don't you want to pinch his cheek?
He's exquisitely unique

Our deer is so endearing
But one thing that I'm fearing
When we start to school him
The kids may ridicule him

Perhaps they'll ignore it
Maybe learn to adore it
He has that certain spark
I bet that nose glows in the dark

Put a cover on it
Wear a lampshade upon it
Forgive us for finding
Rudy's nose is simply blinding

Oh, then what about, what about
What about his gleaming nose?
It is a little pink
He'll grow out of it, I think

What about, what about
What about when Rudolph grows?
Will it grow any dimmer?
Or will it start to shimmer?

What about, what about
What about his gleaming, ever beaming
Neon shining nose?

Yes, what about
Yes, what about
Yes, what about
Yes, what about

Yes, what about Rudolph's shiny nose?

Rudolph has a nose only a mudder could love!
