Santa back when we first met you were young and slim
400 years or so before your arthritis set in
Just a couple of kids who thought that death was for them to decide
Just a couple of kids racing flying sleighs across the velvet skies
Back then Santa, we thought that presents solved it all
400 years or so before the banks and shopping malls
Just a couple guys with a couple of sleighs piled with presents tall
Just a couple of fools who thought that gifts could bring peace to us all
Santa we were wrong
I should have known it all along
I must leave Christmas up to you
Which means only half the world gets done
Yes we were two Santas that the world assumed was one
But now there’s just one Santa cause the secret (second) Santa’s done
I’ve got weary bones like gamblers huddled round their dice
Waiting for the wind of need to blow the snake eyes twice
Santa we were wrong
I should have known it all along
I must leave Christmas up to you
This secret second Santa’s done
Santa look me in the eyes and santa tell me true
If you had it all to do again, what do you think you’d do
Santa if you could go back would you do it all the same
Would you give the people whats good for them or give them what they crave
Santa we were wrong
I should have known it all along
It’s a reckless man who thinks he may
Change the world with a flying sleigh
It’s a foolish world that thinks one could do
A job thats clearly meant for two
It’s a reckless man who thinks he may
Change the world with a flying sleigh
I must leave Christmas up to you
This secret second Santa’s through
My sleigh is shooting off into the horizon without me
