The Night Santa Went Crazy - Weird Al Yankovic

in #music15 hours ago

God this stop motion Lego video of one of my favourite Weird Al songs for the seasons. Had this on tape WAAAAAAY back in the day. Not my normal Bass music / Dubstep / Robo Noises music post, figured something more festive would be better received.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Down in the workshop, all the elves were making toys
For the good Gentile girls and the good Gentile boys
When the boss busted in, nearly scared them half to death
Had a rifle in his hands and cheap whiskey on his breath
From his beard to his boots, he was covered with ammo
Like a big fat drunk disgruntled Yuletide Rambo
And he smiled as he said with a twinkle in his eye
"Merry Christmas to all! Now you're all gonna die!"

[Chorus]
The night Santa went crazy
The night Saint Nick went insane
Realized he'd been getting a raw deal
Something finally must have snapped in his brain

[Verse 2]
Well, the workshop is gone now—he decided to bomb it
Everywhere you'll find pieces of Cupid and Comet
And he tied up his helpers, and he held the elves hostage
And he ground up poor Rudolph into reindeer sausage
He got Dancer and Prancer with an old German Luger
And he slashed up Dasher just like Freddy Krueger
And he picked up a flamethrower and he barbecued Blitzen
And he took a big bite and said, "It tastes just like chicken!"

[Chorus]
The night Santa went crazy
The night Kris Kringle went nuts
Now you can hardly walk around the North Pole
Without stepping in reindeer guts

[Bridge]
There's the National Guard and the FBI
There's a van from the Eyewitness News
And helicopters circlin' 'round in the sky
And the bullets are flyin', the body count's risin'
And everyone's dyin' to know ... oh Santa, why?
My, my, my, my, my, my
You used to be such a jolly guy

[Verse 3]
Yes, Virginia, now Santa's doing time
In a federal prison for his infamous crime
Hey, little friend now, don't you cry no more tears
He'll be out with good behavior in seven hundred more years
But now Vixen's in therapy, and Donner's still nervous
And the elves all got jobs working for the postal service
And they say Mrs. Claus, she's on the phone every night
With her lawyer, negotiating the movie rights, They're talkin' 'bout

[Chorus]
The night Santa went crazy
The night Saint Nicholas flipped
Broke his back for some milk and cookies
Sounds to me like he was tired of gettin' gypped

Wo-oh, the night Santa went crazy
The night Saint Nick went insane
Realized he'd been getting a raw deal
Something finally must have snapped in his brain
Wo-oh, something finally must have snapped in his brain
Tell ya, something finally must have snapped... in his brain

Uhm, didnt know Santa's brains is (was?) red? 🙂
I guess no Xmas presents for any of us now HE is gone?

It's a classic. Lord I was listening to this stuff before I was 10 or something.

Weird Al has damn hilarious remixes of tracks. Check him out of you haven't. :)

Yeah, I know Weird Al. Not sure since when, but could be from back in the 80s already. Have already a few decades on my biological clock 😉 But I didnt see the stop motion movie!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year…
