The Death of Santa Claus

Everyone knows the reindeer did it:
how can you fault them for going insane?
With the cold, the load, and sound of the whip.

The elves themselves must bear part of the blame;
the sled was too heavy for eight reindeer
how can you fault them for going insane?

They did their best to overcome the fear
of the cold, the whip and unbalanced load;
the sled was too heavy for eight reindeer.

So Dasher and Comet the teams pace slowed,
they were tired and needed a rest because
of the cold, the whip and unbalanced load;

Instead of balancing the load, Santa Clause
yelled and cracked his whip at them even though
they were tired and needed a rest because

they rebelled and stomped him into the snow.
Everyone knows the reindeer did it,
when Santa yelled and cracked his whip even though
they feared the cold, load, and sound of the whip.
