A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

When I was about 5, I used to love singing christmas carols, and my favourite was "I saw mummy kissing santa claus".

But I always thought the line "underneath the mistletoe last night" was actually "on his little missing toe last night"

My mum still has video tapes of me singing those lines to the song, even pointing to my toes while I was singing it.

What I wanna know now is; Even if Santa DOES have a "missing toe"...how could anyone kiss it? IT'S NOT THERE!
