Santa never came
Santa never came
Through the howling wind and the pouring rain
Maybe next year cos Santa never came
I came downstairs
I'm looking everywhere
I saw the cookies still there
Under the tree so bare
Sent out a search party
Looked high and low
I asked around town
No one seemed to know
I'd always believed
Santa was my mum's mate Steve
Must've been so naive
But I'd always see him leave
Early Christmas Eve
Whilst dad was still at work
She said
This should be the last time
This should be the last time
That Santa never came
Santa never came
Santa never came
Through the howling wind and the pouring rain
Well maybe next year cos Santa never came
No sightings out there
Not no hide nor hair
This is so unfair
To think he doesn't care
I wonder if he got the fear
After the fight last year
When dad grabbed his beard
My mum screaming please dear
No sleigh in the sky
Just a smack in the eye
I think that made him cry
As my dad screamed die
Well I've been so good
As good as I could
Maybe I shoulda been better
Better be the last time
Better should be the last time
That Santa never came
Santa never came
Santa never came
Through the howling wind and the pouring rain
Well maybe next year cos Santa never came
Santa never came
Santa never came
Through the howling wind and the pouring rain
Well maybe next year cos Santa never came
Santa never came
Santa never came
Santa never came
Santa never came
Santa never came
Santa never came
Santa never came
Santa never came
Santa never came
Santa never came
Santa never came
Through the howling wind and the pouring rain
Well maybe next year cos Santa never came
Santa never came
Santa never came (blame it on the weather)
Santa never came
