The local beer, Santa's favourite
Santa will continue to adorn many doors and windows in shops and homes
until the Lantern Festival, which falls on the last day (sometime in the middle of February)
of the month-long Chinese New Year holidays

I was surprised to learn they were devious.
But with every step I'd take, I could crush their evil intentions!

Happy 牛 Year

牛 (or Ox) is pronounced something like "new" in Chinese.
Maybe we could say "Happy Moo Year"...
