Where will he get those toys For all them girls and boys What is there for Santa Clause to do
Hes feeling helpless now The cause of many a row These hard financial times affect him too
The elves had had enough Less than minimum wage is tough So saint nick had sent them on their way
With no one to assist, Bills longer than the naughty list How on earth would poor Santa Clause pay
Children all over the world, all countries, all races Wake up demember 25th with disappointed faces None of them with a clue what poor Saint Nick has been through Underneath the Christmas tree is an I.O.U
---Chorus--- Spare a thought for Santa Clause this year Wont hear a ho ho ho exchange rates low low low Its pretty hard to spread that Christmas cheer Hes trying to make it better, he goes through all the letters Molly wants a dolly and John wants a tank Well thats all good and jolly kids, but my children there is just no money in the North Pole Bank
A lot on Santas plate, Mrs. Clause says lose weight But all this wasnt good for santys head
That clunky old time sleigh, Was really past its day so Santa clause he bought a Porshe instead
Borrowed the money from Rudolf and now hes charging interest rates, After being made redundant him and Nick no longer mates
The systems falling apart, the children still in his heart, Oh where did this whole thing start?
Children all over the world, all countries, all races Wake up demember 25th with disappointed faces None of them with a clue what poor Saint Nick has been through Underneath the Christmas tree is an I.O.U
---Chorus--- Spare a thought for Santa Clause this year Wont hear a ho ho ho exchange rates low low low Its pretty hard to spread that Christmas cheer Hes trying to make it better, he goes through all the letters Molly wants a dolly and John wants a tank Well thats all good and jolly kids, but my children there is just no money in the North Pole Bank
He says get out of my way Said I need a drink Sits down with a lager and a mince pie and that man begins to think
SANTAS A CLEVER MAN Hes got a CLEVER PLAN A very very clever plan indeed Hell simply take the toys From OTHER girls and boys
*bridge* Puts the key in the ignition and off he goes The Porshe flies through the air as it snows and snows
Ann wants a Barbie doll, Mary has one of those The brother of Ann has an action man be sure to rob that while you can!
The fat boy down the road, he wants a rocking horse Does the boy next door to him have one of those oh yes oh yes he does of course
Satisfies the kiddies, with not a penny to pay, Move over baby Jesus, hes the saviour of the day
So we can all celebrate Christmas this year Wont hear a ho ho ho exchange rates still quite low But its not hard to spread that Christmas cheer He tried to make it better, he went through all the letters Molly wants a dolly and John wants a tank Well thats all good and jolly kids, but my children there is just no money in the North Pole Bank
