Verse 1
When I was small I believed in Santa Claus
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
They knocked my reindeer to the floor
Chorus
And 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 -
N.C. G
to the little rich boys
Solo
Verse 2
Don't give my brother a Steve Austin outfit
Don't give my sister a cuddly toy
We don't want a jigsaw or monopoly money
We only want the real McCoy
Chorus
Father Christmas, give us the 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
Verse 3
But give my daddy a job 'cos he needs one
He's got lots of mouths to feed
And if you've got one I'll have a machine gun
So I can scare all the kids on the street
Chorus
Father Christmas, give us some money
We've 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
Give all the toys -
N.C. G
to the little rich boys
Solo
Bridge 2
Have yourself a merry merry Christmas
Have yourself a good time
But remember the kids who got nothing
While you're drinking down your wine
Intro Repeat
Chorus
Father Christmas, give us some money
We've got no time for your silly toys
Father Christmas, please hand it over
We'll beat you up so don't make us annoyed
Father Christmas, give us some money
Dont mess around with those silly toys
We'll beat you up if you dont hand it over
We want your bread so don't make us annoyed
Give all the toys -
N.C. G
to the little rich boys
