***********************************************************************

Original version "Here Comes Santa Claus"            My version "Who needs Santa Claus?"

Here comes Santa Claus,                                    Who needs Santa Claus?
Here comes Santa Claus                                      Who needs Santa Claus?
Right down Santa Claus Lane.                              He's caused me so much pain.

Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer                    All those gifts and buyin' on credit
are pulling on the rein.                                          have created a financial strain.
Bells are ringing, children singing;                        Creditors are calling, credit rating is falling
All is merry and bright.                                        Man what a terrible plight.
Hang your stockings and say your pray'rs,            Hang your stockings and say your pray'rs,
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.                      Daddy's gotta rob a bank tonight.

Here comes Santa Claus,                                    Who needs Santa Claus?
Here comes Santa Claus                                      Who needs Santa Claus?
Right down Santa Claus Lane.                              I must have been insane.

He's got a bag that is filled with toys                      Buying all those stinking toys
for the boys and girls again.                                  for those spoiled kids again.
Here those sleigh bells jingle jangle,                      See the police lights getting closer,
What a beautiful sight.                                          What a horrible sight.
Jump in bed, cover up your head,                          We just lost the house to forclosure,
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.                      And we're sleeping on the streets tonight.

Here comes Santa Claus,                                    Who needs Santa Claus?
Here comes Santa Claus                                      Who needs Santa Claus?
Right down Santa Claus Lane.                              He really is a pain.

He doesn't care if you're rich or poor                      He doesn't care if you're rich or poor
for he loves you just the same.                              for you'll end up broke just the same.
Santa knows that we're God's children;                  Had it up to here with all God's children;
That makes everything right.                                Now I'm sittin' in jail.
Fill your hearts with a Christmas cheer                  Wonder if any of that "Christmas cheer"
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.                      Can be used towards posting my bail!
