I wake up on Christmas, nothing
Underneath the tree
Listen for those jingle bells, but
They don't ring for me
Mom and daddy said, "If I was good
Then Santa wouldn't skip this neighbourhood"
That I will see the reindeer overhead
Instead, I found a cockroach in my bed
I wanna be a rich kid on Christmas
Get everything I want
I'm talking 'bout a new bike and Xbox
The list goes on and on
Peace on earth means nothing
And I'm the living proof
I wanna be a rich kid on Christmas
Santa, make it true
(Ah-ooh!)
♪
And every year December children
Are lighting up with cheer (lighting up with cheer!)
But for kids like me
This is the worst time of the year
Watching other families hug and kiss
Mom and dad are fighting, drunk and pissed
Got another stocking filled with coal
Getting in the spirit's getting old
I wanna be a rich kid on Christmas
Get everything I want
I'm talking 'bout a new car, a nice watch
The list goes on and on
Peace on earth means nothing
And I'm the living proof
I wanna be a rich kid on Christmas
Santa, make it true
I wanna build a snowman
I want a check for ten grand
I want a roof that won't leak
Or mom and dad to just speak
I want a warm vacation
Because my heart is aching
I wanna know what it feels like
I wanna be a rich kid on Christmas
Get everything I want
I'm talking 'bout a new house, some big yard
The list goes on and on
Peace on earth means nothing
And I'm the living proof
I wanna be a rich kid on Christmas
Santa, make it true
(Ah-ooh!)
Santa, make it true
(Rich kid on Christmas)
