Lyrics
Santa Clause he's been getting ill
Sleigh insurance is getting higher still
You know that property taxes at the North Pole are on the rise
He's got three hundred hungry elves to feed
And at night every reindeer cries
The Easter bunny with his cotton tail
Is being sued by an overweight teenage male
For bringing too much candy to his house on Easter day
That rabbit's gonna pay for what he done to me
Or at least that's what my lawyers say
Now I heard the great pumpkin is about to retire
You see he caught his stem on an electric wire
He was arrested for trespassing caught in the act as it were
Conspiracy to commit a heinous fraud
Paid witnesses seemed to concur
Now the tooth fairy has been cast out
By a hundred angry dentists with no teeth to pull out
They say that children tend to sit around waiting for their teeth to fall
This type of patient behavior can't be tolerated
Let's nail that fairy to the wall
Now Cupid's arrow and Saint Valentine
Are being accused of making love sound fine
Regardless of the pronouns or how one might identify
They're gonna run Tinkerbelle out of Florida
And it's against the law to tell kids why
Now Jesus Christ is on the gallows again
Preaching love thy neighbor got him eight to ten
I heard the judge even called him a liberal subversive slime
Well all my heroes are desperate wanted men
I guess that's just a sign of the times
Oh baby that's a sign of the times
Oh baby that's a sign of the times
It's a sign of the times
Yeah it's a sign of the times
Well all my heroes are desperate wanted men
I guess that's just a sign of the times
