[ Featuring the Dark Shadows ]
It was the night before Christmas, and I knew Santa was coming
There was a cat in the window when I came back from running
Outside were palm trees and sand, but Santa couldn't ride his sleigh
No chimney to come down, or leave toys for children to play
T'was late Christmas Eve, and there was a knock upon my door
She was tall, blonde, and beautiful. What man could ask for more
She was one of Santa's elves, and heard I was naughty and nice
Here to fulfill my Christmas wish, and I didn't have to wish twice
T'was now Christmas morn, and all my presents are gone
So was my cash, watch, and jewels. She even tried to steal this song
T'was the end of Christmas day, and I saw Santa, dark and lean?
He said, be careful what you wish for, as I woke up from the dream
T'was the day after Christmas, and I saw Santa in flight
He said, keep your loved ones close, and your enemies closer
Merry Christmas, and to all a good night
