It's Getting Harder to Be Santa Claus Lyrics

It's getting harder to be Santa Claus

They say I don't sell well anymore

They want Santa to be young and thinner

And have 100,000 fans on twitter

It's getting harder to be Santa Claus

All of the good girls and boys

Have grown out of my wooden toys

Don't want a train set, they want an iPod

Try teaching an elf to build an xbox

It's getting harder to be Santa Claus

It's getting harder to be me

And to be jolly

When no one knows what a bough of holly is

And their Christmas lists

Is pushing me close to bankruptcy

Why can't you see

It's not about spending more money

We just need a Christmas party

It's getting harder to be Santa Claus

When you want for things that can't be bought

I can't make a pop star, or make you famous

When did greed get so contagious?

It's getting harder to be Santa Claus

It's getting bad, it's getting real bad

They photoshop the goose so he doesn't look so fat

It's getting harder to be

It's getting harder to be me

And to be jolly

When no one knows what a bough of holly is

And their Christmas lists

Is pushing me close to bankruptcy

Why can't you see

It's not about spending more money

We just need a Christmas party

Cut up those credit cards

And make some decorations

Turn off the X factor

Put on Christmas Vacation

We've need to unwind

Break out the mulled wine

Forget that waist line

It's turkey time

It's getting harder to be me

And to be jolly

When no one knows what a figgy pudding is

And their Christmas lists

Is pushing me close to bankruptcy

Why can't you see

It's not about spending more money

We just need our friends and family

We just need a star on our tree

We just need a Christmas party
