I came upon a roadkill deer A sorrowful sight to behold He lay upon the highway's edge His body was stiff and cold I bet he never saw the car Careening through the snow The lights shone brightly in his eyes And then they laid him low I came upon a roadkill deer And lifted him off the road We'll all enjoy a Christmas feast Of Bambi sloppy joes Be careful of those gravel bits They really get stuck in your teeth We'll place the antlers from his head Upon our holiday wreath (I came upon a roadkill deer) (A sorrowful sight to behold) He gave his all to bring good cheer As thumper mistletoe
