lyrics

I was a reindeer, along the fluffy clouds I ride
with Rudolph and Blitzen by my side
Many a young child waited for our toys
So much Christmas joy for all the girls and boys
The naughty list bastards will get only coal
But Santa's sleigh will roll

I was Santa, I was born a jolly elf
The naughty list I keep to myself
I sail my big red sleigh all around the world
I went aloft to fly my sleigh through a blizzard snow
And if we get lost we'll use Rudolph's light
But we'll get through tonight
Ho, ho, ho!

I was a toy builder, way up across the North divide
Where elf magic and toy skills collide
I slipped and fell off the back of Santa's sleigh
They didn't find my body until Christmas day
They buried me with a candy cane tombstone in the ground
But my elf magic is still around
It'll always be around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around

I fly Santa's sleigh across the planet Earth's divide
And when we reach the other side
I'll find a tree to place the toys the best I can
Perhaps St. Nick will let me drive next year again
Or I may simply be a single flake of snow
But I will always go
And if Santa asks I'll go, and I'll go, and I'll go, and I'll go, and I'll go, and I'll go, and I'll go
