Father Christmas

Warrant

When i was four i believed in Santa Claus

Though i knew it was my dad

And we would hang up the stockings at Christmas

I'd open presents and i'd be glad



But then last year I played Father Christmas

I stood outside a department store

A gang of kids came over and mugged me

And knocked my reindeer to the floor



They said:

Father Christmas, give us some money

Don't mess around with those silly toys

Beat you up if you don't hand it over

We want your bread so don't make us annoyed

Give all the toys to the little rich boys



Don't give my brother a Steve Austin outfit

Don't give my sister a cuddly toy

Don't want a jigsaw, Monopoly money

We only want the real McCoy



Father Christmas, give us some money

Don't mess around with those silly toys

Beat you up if you don't hand it over

We want your bread so don't make us annoyed



And give my daddy a job 'cause he needs one

He's got a lot of mouths to feed

And if you've got one, i'll take a machine gun

So i can shoot all the kids down my street



Father Christmas, give us some money

Don't mess around with those silly toys

Beat you up if you don't hand it over

We want your bread so don't make us annoyed

Give all the toys to the little rich boys



Have yourself a very Merry Christmas

Have yourself a good time

Remember the kids who got nothin'

While you're drinkin' down your wine



Father Christmas, give us some money

Don't mess around with those silly toys

Father Christmas, give us some money

We'll beat ya up so don't make us annoyed



Father Christmas, give us some money

Don't mess around with those silly toys

Beat you up if you don't hand it over

We want your bread so don't make us annoyed

Give all the toys to the little rich boys
