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
