lyrics

Santa Claus is crying 'cos there isn't any dough
He gave it to his broker and it disappeared like snow
There's no money in the meter and there's nothing in his sack
His debtors and the bailiff wouldn't cut him any slack

Santa Claus is sighing it was never quite like this
Every boy and girl was dying to be on his good list
But the world has lost it's mystery he has to face the fact
He's been consigned to history and there's no turning back

Santa Claus is cunning he's hatched a master plan
He's heading for the city to stick it to the man
And no-one's gonna stop him 'cos he's gone 'round the bend
Santa Claus is coming and he's looking for revenge

If you don't believe me and you'd like to have some proof
Don't wait until his reindeers have landed on your roof
'Cos when you hear his "ho ho ho" in the silent of the night
Santa Claus is on his way to put the world to right

"You never can be sure what kind of project Jim will come up with next, but you can always be sure it's gonna be pretty darn good." Tom Robinson BBC 6 Music.

Jim's songs range from the whimsical to some of the most bitter and somber themes, yet always with a paradoxical childlike spirit that meets them head-on – wide-eyed and full of hopeful energy.
