Let’s take a break from the serious stuff today and listen to a funny Lennonesque Christmas song, which just happens to be by my brother Philip.
“Santa’s Coming” is from the CD he made under the name “Inspector Muffin” — a psychedelic tribute to 60s music (and I play bass and co-wrote one song).
“Santa’s Coming” is not necessarily a song you would play for your kids if they are old enough to get the double entendres. Â Lyrics are below.
Santa comes only once a year
So when its time for him to come, everyone stand clear
His sack is full with good things for me and you
and if you’ve been a real good boy, he’ll drop a load or two on you
Everyone beat the Christmas drums
Everyone’s glad when Santa comes
When he comes
Santa’s coming
All over the world for all the boys and girls
Santa’s coming
Don’t be shy; Santa’s quite the handsome chap
You can feel the love he brings by sitting in his lap
So sit right down, there’s a package just for you
but don’t open til Christmas day or Santa’s gonna come too soon
Santa will bless the old and young
If your stocking is well hung
When he comes
Santa’s coming
All over the world for all the boys and girls
Santa’s coming
Before you go down, please make sure the chimney’s clear
If its too tight, you should go ’round back and enter from the rear
For the climax of the year
Christmas day the bells have rung
Santa Claus on every tongue
When he comes
Santa’s coming
All over the world for all the boys and girls
Santa’s coming
