Don’t Shoot Me, Santa (The Killers)

Oh, Santa
I’ve been waiting on you
Well that’s funny kid
‘cos I’ve been coming for you
Oh, Santa
I’ve been killing just for fun
Well, the party’s over kid
‘cos I, I got a bullet in my gun
A bullet in your what?
Santa’s got a bullet in his gun (you know it)
Santa’s got a bullet in his gun
Don’t shoot me Santa Clause
I’ve been a clean living boy
I promise you, did every little thing you ask me to
I can’t believe the things I’m going through
Don’t shoot me Santa Claus
No one else around believes me
But the children on the block they tease me
I couldn’t let them off that easy
Oh, Santa
It’s been a real hard year
Well there ain’t no getting around this
Life is hard but look at me I turned out alright
Hey, Santa
Why don’t we talk about it, work it out
Believe me, this ain’t what I wanted
I love all you kids,
Hell
I remember when you were just 10 years old
Playing out in the desert
Just waiting for a sip of that
Sweet Mojave rain
In the sweet Mojave rainĀ (Sweet Mojave rain)
The boy was on his own
Don’t shoot me Santa Clause
I’ve been a clean living boy
I promise you, did every little thing you ask me to
I can’t believe the things I’m going through
Don’t shoot me Santa Clause
No one else around believes me
But the children on the block they tease me
I couldn’t let them off that easy
They had it coming, so, why can’t you see
I couldn’t turn my cheek no longer
The sun is going down and Christmas is here
Just look the other way and I’ll disappear forever
Don’t shoot me Santa Clause
No one else around believes me
But the children on the street they tease me
I couldn’t let them off that easy
Believe me Santa
You gotta believe me, Santa
Santa?
Please!
Hey!
