Je score:

unmemorable movie.



Father Christmas:  Off "Come Dancing With the Kinks   1977-1986"

When I was small I believed in Santa Clause
Though I knew it was my dad
And I would hang up my stocking at Christmas
Open my presents and I'd be glad

But the last time I played Father Christmas
I stood outside a department store
A gang of kids came over and mugged me
And knocked my reindeer to the floor

They said:
"Father Christmas, give us some money
Don't mess around with those silly toys.
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
We want your bread so don't make us annoyed
Give all the toys to the little rich boys

"Don't give my brother a (?) outfit
 Don't give my sister a cuddly toy
 We don't want a jigsaw or monopoly money
 We only want the real McCoy

"Father Christmas, give us some money
 We'll beat you up if you make us annoyed
 Father Christmas, give us some money
 Don't mess around with those silly toys

"But give my daddy a job 'cause he needs one
 He's got lots of mouths to feed
 But if you've got one, I'll have a machine gun
 So I can scare all the kids down the street

"Father Christmas, give us some money
 We got no time for your silly toys
 We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
 Give all the toys to the little rich boys

Have yourself a merry merry Christmas
Have yourself a good time
But remember the kids who got nothin'
While you're drinkin' down your wine

"Father Christmas, give us some money
 We got no time for your silly toys
 We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
 We want your bread, so don't make us annoyed



In case anyone's interested, and for Mr. Ed's (I've never met the guy)
enlightenment, I think that "Hit Stix" are made by Worlds of Wonder, and not
Mattel (who makes the "Samba Slaps").
