lyrics

He’s Santa Claus . . . because
He started giving so long ago
He’s a saint . . . but he ain’t
So good on the telephone
Christmas Eve. . . he brings dreams
But he needs some assistance too
Write a list . . . . mail it in
It’s the least a little kid can do

Oh . . . Santa Claus gets his information
Exclusively in the mail
So if you’re good you’d better write a letter
And give it to a snail (mail carrier)
Santa Claus gets his information
Directly in the post
So write out by hand, don’t offend him, send him
A list of what you want the most

You won’t catch him reading emails
With a phone up to his nose
And as for S-M-essages well
He’s never heard of those
Don’t make me laugh . . . . Ho Ho Ho Ho!

How long? . . . How far?
From the North Pole to here?
Big old list . . . bag of toys
But he makes the trip every year
In his sleigh . . . all the way
He can fly and read your mind
He’s a tireless, wireless jolly saint
Who leaves every phone behind

Oh . . . Santa Claus gets his information
Exclusively in the mail
So if you’re good you’d better write a letter
And give it to a snail (mail carrier)
Santa Claus gets his information
Directly in the post
So write out by hand, don’t offend him, send him
A list of what you want the most

Songs to Sing at Children
by Mike Phirman

This album has silly but profound songwriting (What makes the breakfast) as well as hilarious skits between songs that keep me and my six year-old laughing. My Friend Christopher
