A lyrical interview with Santa...



Well, apparently Santa is back and I was lucky enough to interview the great man.

"Why do you do this Santa and in our world of austerity can you bring good cheer to everyone in 2014?"

It's not about the money, money, money

We don't need your money, money, money

We just wanna make the world dance

Forget about the price tag

"Yes I know it's not about the money but you have a naughty and nice list, is that fair in this world today, is everyone not equal?"

You say I'm crazy

'Cause you don't think I know what you've done

But when you call me baby

I know I'm not the only one

"Ah, what with extended families, terrorism, our world is full of extremes, you really still provide good cheer at Xmas, should we not strive for that everyday?"

Tonight, tonight, we gotta live for

We gotta live for these days

Tonight, tonight, we'll remember

We'll remember these days

"Thats nice Santa but if you were my present what would I get?"

You got me wrapped up

"Sadly many think Xmas is too commercialised and tradition now is to substitute Xmas with 'holiday'...how do feel about that?"

When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades

And the crowds don't remember my name

When my hands don't play the strings the same way, mm

I know you will still love me the same

"Yeah, sounds good you will never be forgotten Santa but what about Xmas everyday or are you too busy for that?"

Another day of living, yeah 

I just want to celebrate another day of living 

I just want to celebrate another day of life 

Don't let it all get you down, 

Don't let it turn you around and around 

"Well its getting on and time is of the essence if you are going to deliver all those presents maybe I could help you?"

Don't stop me now...

"Santa?....and why do you look like Arnold Schwarz......?"

It's Christmas....

I could pay you...just tonite...please???"

It's not about the money, money, money

We don't need your money, money, money

We just wanna make the world dance

Forget about the price tag

"Bye Santa...will we see you next year?"

I'll be back!....Merry Xmas!
