Weird Al Yankovic - The Night Santa Went Crazy lyrics

Album: Bad Hair Day (1996)

Down in the workshop all the elves were makin´ toys
For the good Gentile girls & the good Gentile boys
When the boss busted in, nearly scared em half to death
Had a rifle in his hands & cheap whiskey on his breath
From his beard to his boots he was covered with ammo
Like a big fat drunk disgruntled Yuletide Rambo
And he smiled as he said with a twinkle in his eye,
"Merry Christmas to all... now you are all going to die!"

The night Santa went crazy
The night St. Nick went insane
Realized he would been gettin´ a raw deal
Smth finally must have snapped in his brain

Well, the workshop is gone now he decided to bomb it
Everywhere you will find pieces of Cupid & Comet
And he tied up his helpers & he held the elves hostage
And he ground up poor Rudolph into reindeer sausage
He got Dancer & Prancer with an old German Luger
And he slashed up Dasher just like Freddie Krueger
And he picked up a flamethrower & he barbequed Blitzen
And he took a big bite & said, "It tastes just like chicken!"

The night Santa went crazy
The night Kris Kringle went nuts
Now you can hardly walk around the North Pole
Without steppin´ in reindeer guts

Theres the National Guard & the FBI
Theres a van from the Eyewitness News
And helicopters circlin´ ´round in the sky
And the bullets are flyin´, the body count´s risin´
And everyone has dyin´ to know, oh Santa, why?
My my my my my my
You used to be such a jolly guy

[soft, pleasant original version]
West Virginia, now Santa´s doing time
In a federal prison for his infamous crime
Hey, little friend, now don´t you cry no more tears
He will be out with good behavior in 700 more yeahrs
But now Vixen´s in therapy, & Donner´s still nervous
And the elves all got jobs working for the postal service
And they say Mrs. Claus, she has on the phone every night
With her lawyer negotiating the movie rights

They are talkin´ ´bout - the night Santa went crazy
The night St. Nicholas flipped
Broke his back for some milk & cookies
Sounds to me like he was tired of gettin´ gypped

Wo, the night Santa went crazy
The night St. Nick went insane
Realized he would been gettin´ a raw deal
Smth finally must have snapped in his brain

Wo, smth finally must have snapped in his brain
Tell ya, smth finally must have snapped... in his brain
