Yes but that’s creative freedom.
Up on the rooftop reindeer paws
Out comes good old Santa Clause
Up on the rooftop click click click
Down the chimney with good Saint Nick
The rhyming scheme insinuates it is the reindeer paws clicking
It's literally not, it's an old song and the original lyrics are pause, they're waiting for Santa. Paws are soft and don't click. Cats have Paws, bears have paws, reindeer have hooves
It is the hooves clicking, that was the whole point. The song makes it clear that the sound their hooves make is clicking. They pause, awaiting Santa, once he gets back on his sleigh they begin running again, producing the clicking sound, which is why my very first comment was that anyone that knows the song should know that the sound it makes when reindeer walk is a clicking of the hooves
bruh my ankle snaps all the time when i walk. like popping your wrist or fingers for instance. except it’s your ankle. and like 10x louder so everyone in the entire room can hear
Up on the housetop reindeer pause
Also reindeer paws
Interesting. It’s not a common one in Australia but I do know it
