Santa I just thought I better take the time to write this letter
I'm a good kid most the time you know
Sometimes I guy starts feelin' mean and sayin' things you won' t believe
Like when I told my sister where to go

But Santa I should think we'll soon be even don't you see
For as I write there's a pair of eyes glaring down at me

Santa you've been awfully kind so I just thought I'd drop a line
'Cause I'm a good kid most the time you see
Sometimes I guy starts feelin' wired and he's possessed by strange desires
Like throwin' Barbie Dolls out in the street

But Santa I should thin we'll soon be even don't you see
Why else would my dear mother break an elm switch from a tree?

I plead to you with pen in hand and hope that you will understand
'Cause Santa I don't mean to be a pain
Sometimes a guy starts feelin' weird and overcome by Christmas cheer
Like when I went out streaking in the rain!

But Santa I should think we'll soon be even don't you see
I'm writing prose from an awkward prose across my mother's knee!

Santa Claus I write these words in case perhaps you overheard
For I've been less than perfect yes I know
But can't you see my point of view these next few days I must improve
For where else from the bottom can I go?
