OH SANTA (BAD WORLD)

Well you’ve seen my suit
And you heard my name
Yeah but most of all you know my game

They call you Santa
Yeah they call you Claus
When it comes to Christmas you’re the boss

Once a year I get high as a kite
Ride around the sky with my reindeer at night

Have you been keeping a list?
Did you check it twice?
Seems theres way more naughty than there is nice

I’ve been a good girl every day
Mrs. Claus and the elves say I should stay away

I hate to say it boys
And I hate to say it girls
This year Santa’s staying home
It’s been a bad world
You won’t hear my sleigh bells jingle jangle in the snow
‘Cause in case you haven’t heard this year Santa’s laying low

Oh
Oh Santa
It’s been a bad world
Oh
Oh Santa
It’s been a bad world

So forget your letters and forget your rhymes
Your cookies and milk won’t cut it this time

I’ll leave you whiskey by the tree
I can’t help it, there’s just a sinner in me

You won’t see me, child
I’m just a rambling man
I’ll be staying here in my icy land

Come down the chimney
Come to my room
Mrs. Claus won’t know anytime soon

So I hate to say it boys
And I hate to say it girls
This year Santa’s staying home
It’s been a bad world
You won’t hear my sleigh bells jingle jangle in the snow
‘Cause in case you haven’t heard this year Santa’s laying low

Oh
Oh Santa
It’s been a bad world
Oh
Oh Santa
It’s been a bad world

But no hard feelings and maybe in a year
I’ll be coming back around to your atmosphere

Ta ta for now
I’m leaving town
I’ll keep the presents and you can keep the frown

Oh well, well so long
If you keep the presents then I’ll keep this song
