The Monkees — What Would Santa Do

"Bah, humbug" is the word that I'm hearing on the street Everywhere I go, there's a Grinch taking tinsel off a tree Tell me it's no good Tell me it's passé Tell me anything to take my cheer away Makes me wanna clench my fist and sock 'em in the mouth What would Santa do? What would Santa do? Would he strike back? Would he keep his cool? 'Cause I need a helping hand And I just want to understand What would Santa do? What would he do? Come home, see a pair of boots that don't fit my feet (Don't fit my feet) Hear a "ho, ho, ho" from my room, and I know what that means (Know what that means) I never thought this could be I thought you loved only me But there's some red wool clothes under the mistletoe And now I wanna jump on his sleigh, take off into the sky What would Santa do? What would Santa do? Would he strike back? Would he keep his cool? 'Cause I need a helping hand And I just want to understand What would Santa do? What would he do? It's not the same as it was (As it was) It's not the same as it was (As it was) What would Santa do? What would Santa do? Would he strike back? Would he pray for you? We all need a helping hand Could you help me understand? What would Santa do? What do we do? (What would Santa do?) What would Santa do? What should we do?
