Don't Shoot Me Santa
Lyrics
"Oh Santa, I've been waiting on you"
"That's funny kid, because I've been coming for you"
"Oh Santa, I've been killing just for fun"
"Well the party's over kid, because I
Because I got a bullet in my gun"
"A bullet in your what?"
Santa's got a bullet in his gun
(You know it) Santa's got a bullet in his gun
Don't shoot me, Santa Claus
I've been a clean living boy, I promise you
Did every little thing you asked me to
I can't believe the things I'm going through
Don't shoot me, Santa Claus
Well, no one else around believes me
But the children on the block they tease me
I couldn't let them off that easy
"Oh Santa, it's been a real hard year" (Year)
"There just ain't no getting around this, life is hard
But look at me, I turned out alright"
"Hey Santa, why don't we talk about it? Work it out"
"Believe me, this ain't what I wanted
I love all you kids, you know that
Hell, I remember when you were just ten years old
Playing out there in the desert
Just waiting for a sip of that sweet Mojave rain"
In the sweet Mojave rain, the boy was on his own
Don't shoot me, Santa Claus
I've been a clean living boy, I promise you
Did every little thing you asked me to
I can't believe the things I'm going through
Don't shoot me, Santa Claus
Well, no one else around believes me
But the children on the block they tease me
I couldn't let them off that easy
They had it coming so why can't you see?
I couldn't turn my cheek no longer
The sun is going down and Christmas is near
Just look the other way and I'll disappear forever
Don't shoot me, Santa Claus
Well, no one else around believes me
But the children on the street they tease me
I couldn't let them off that easy
Believe me
Santa (Santa)
