There won't be any presents this Christmas 

No goodies in your stocking 

The milk and cookies that the children left out 

Will be left untouched beside the sink 



The reindeer will be staying in their pens this year 

The elves haven't built anything 

Cuz Santa got arrested last Christmas Day 



The Police got calls on 911 

About a red-suited man who weighed a ton 

There was a clear trail of evidence pointing North 

It was the seventh time this happened on December twenty-fourth 



The Mounties reached the North Pole 

They found it was outside the jurisdiction 

They called up inter-polish Finnish Police 

To facilitate the suspect's extradition 



They knocked on the door of a well marked shop 

With a warrant for the owner's apprehension 

Then Santa got arrested Christmas Day 



Santa was charged with B&E 

His council advised he plee guilty 

There was footage of the crime running on TV 

And photographs of little children sitting on his knee 



The judge expressed concerned about the risk of recitizenism 

His sentence was commuted 

He got a bond, a non-association with the elves 

And his reindeer licence was suspended 



He says he's giving up all his former life 

And now he wants to be a dental assistant 

Cuz Santa got arrested 

Santa got arrested 

Santa got arrested last Christmas Day
