Don’t tell, I stole Santa’s cookies and milk.
Don’t tell, I beat the Easter Bunny at golf.
Don’t tell, I lent the tooth fairy some wings.
Don’t tell, I tricked a leprechaun and stole his gold.
Don’t tell, I told the monster under my bed to get lost.
Don’t tell, I whispered stories to Jack Frost in the Dead of night.
Don’t tell Mother Nature is a really good dancer.
Don’t tell, I gave father time a new watch.
Don't tell, I met the Sand Man, but he was asleep.
Don’t tell, cupid is a really bad shot!
Don’t tell; enjoy your child hood before it’s gone.............
