Hey, Mr Santa! - KT Tunstall, Christopher Lennertz

Hey Mr. Santa, don’t worry 'bout a thing

Don’t need no fancy cars or cash or any diamond rings

No presents overflowing or elves upon the shelves

And if I need some real estate I’ll buy it for myself

But if you’re feeling generous this special time of year

I’ve written out my Christmas list and leaving it right here

Listen to the lonely

And pick them off the floor

Give shelter to the helpeless

And never close your door

Imagine you’re a kid

And you’re hungry and afraid

Wouldn’t you just look around

And feel so dismayed

At it all

What are all these presents for

When we could all do so much more

Together

Hey Mr. Santa, it’s time we had a talk

If you haven’t seen what’s going on, it’s time to take a walk

Can you make sure you’re choosing chimneys in all different parts of town

'Cause there’s people up on high who’re keeping other people down

So come on Santa, no-one's perfect all year long

But it isn’t difficult to tell the righteous from the wrong

So give love to the forgotten, make the bullied feel adored

And anyone who’s preyed upon, say it won’t happen anymore

Imagine you’re a kid and you’re tryna understand

Why some guys with all the power just won’t lend their helping hand at all

Give us a world where there’s no walls

Remind us we are never small

When we work together

Hey Mr. Santa, why don’t we have a bet

The most amazing gift that you could give, you haven’t yet

We’ll be waiting together
