Don't Like Santa
Well, I went to the mall with my friends, right around Christmas time
Santa sat on his throne near the tree there wasn’t any line
As a joke I went and sat on his knee
My friends all thought it’d be funny
But then Santa touched me inappropriately
Oh I don’t like Santa, but Santa likes me
I wondered to myself, did anyone else see?
I felt him do it quickly and so secretly
I didn’t want to make a scene, didn’t want publicity
Then Santa held me back as I was trying to leave
They say he’s fat and jolly, but that’s not reality
Oh I don’t like Santa, but Santa likes me
He asked what I wanted for Christmas, I said to get away
He said he’d take me anywhere and he’d even pay
He said how ‘bout taking a cruise and sailing the seven seas
He said he’d share his stateroom and he aims to please
He whispered he’s got love in his beard and under his belt
He said I was special to him and about the love he felt
I have to admit there was something about his smile
That made my heart melt
I didn’t believe in Santa, but it’s plain to see
I don’t like Santa, but Santa likes me
Now how this event will affect me; I’m just starting to see
I can’t face the Easter Bunny or the thought of Halloween
I pray that my teeth don’t fall out; cause by now it’s plain to see
I’m scared that I’ll wake up and find the Tooth Fairy
I may be safe at Thanksgiving, maybe a valentine or two
But I run from Frosty the Snowman, and I avoid the man on the moon
They’re all supposed to represent feelings of fun and good cheer
But I’m unsettled by the symbol used to bring joy throughout the year
Well, thanks to St. Nick, I’m leavin’ ASAP
I don’t like Santa, but Santa likes me
Well, thanks to St. Nick, I’m leavin’ ASAP
I don’t like Santa, but Santa likes me… Santa likes me
