Santa had a dream of buying motorised sleigh
and was penny-pinching on the night
before christmas day
just as his reindeer decided to go on strike
on that fateful evening before christmas night
they complained so bitterly
of all the hard work they had done throughout the year
and wages weren’t good enough
to buy food and beer
you want us to work
you had better bring on
the christmas cheer
what do you mean I pay you a decent wage
what gruel, stale water and yesterdays stew
we want the pounds not the pence
hooves stamped up and down santa sat crying tears
why now why this year
you will have all the children
crying and buckets fall of tears
enough is enough
Rudolph was heard to say
as hooves stamped up and down
while santa cried with dismay
well Ebenezer santa Scrooge give us a pay rise
and well move our hooves
we have basic rights just like you
christmas comes but once a year
so how about some christmas cheer
so steak and chips and with plenty off beer
and lots mulled wine and decent pay
and we will stay and work for you today
with a christmas bonus thrown in too
is this too much to ask off you
and not a pot of gruel and stale water each day
do we deserve to be treated this way
we know are rights and we are being abused
as hooves stamped up and down
too a chorus off
we are not amused
we are not amused
pounds and pence
pounds and pence
not gruel and stew
well Ebenezer santa Scrooge
if you want these presents delivered by christmas day
you had better make a decision
and we will be on our way
or they’re will be riots this christmas day
as children and parents bitterly complain
and unions will end up sacking you
your monopoly over christmas and presents
would have had its day
that would be the end of santa s rule
over christmas day
no more santa s he heh he
the story will appear in the papers
for people to see
as Rudolph and his rebellious reindeer’s
had the last laugh going on strike
on christmas eve
as Ebenezer santa Scrooge
retired to count his losses today
the story of santa clause
had long passed away
an old tradition ruined
by a naughty reindeer
and his wicked ways
moral of story is give your staff
a decent pay
or suffer same fate this christmas day
