lyrics

F_____________________C
Little Bruno Muller Schmid burned his sisters hair
and also stole his brother’s toys
and broke the baby’s chair
because he did not beware
Bb________Bbm________F______Fm_C_Cm
of who was coming up the stairs...

Little Ingrid Eder Haas drowned her father’s goat
and carved a Nazi swastika into her uncles boat
but she had no time to gloat
Bb_________Bbm_______F______FM_C_Cm_E_C_Cm_E
because sailing across the moat..

C____________________G
Black Peter and his friend Saint Nick
C_____________F
came sailing into town
C_______________G__________Am_____F
and quickly rounded up the horrid children
C_________________G
they stuffed them into boxes filled with
C_______________F
Scorpions and snakes
C_______________G______________Am_____________F
they guzzled eggnog while the muffled screaming filled the air

They broke in through their windows
They grabbed them from their beds
They tied them up with ropes and chains and gagged their sinful heads
They took all of their toys and games
and threw them in the fire
the fire made from gasoline and little thieves and liars
The people of the town all cheered
while smoke filled up the sky
they’d got their presents earlier, the smoke had made them high
then on the backs of ravens wings
they flew into the air
good ol’ pete and nicholas can end up anywhere
