Santa's laughter mocks the poor, it's Christmas time again
You hear it in the songs of joy promoting fiscal gain
You see it in the credit cards that flutter down the drain, cos
Santa's laughter mocks the poor, and here it comes again

Santa's laughter mocks the poor, it echoes in the night
A nagging sound that makes you wonder if you got it right
Everybody lies awake and thinks there's more to life, but
Santa's laughter mocks the poor, and you're to blame tonight

Santa, we love you
Santa, don't you care?
Why do you ignore us Santa?
At this time of year

Santa's laughter mocks the poor, a liability
That taunts you every time you turn on one of your TVs
Or choose the leather option, or a nice Moroccan tea oh
Santa's laughter mocks the poor across the seven seas

Santa's laughter mocks the poor, the catchiest of songs
If everybody else is singing it, it can't be wrong
You hear it in the news reports of panic in Hong Kong
Santa's laughter mocks the poor, you've known it all along

Santa's laughter mocks the poor, they just don't have the clout
To make a difference in the way society's turned out
Share out all the money in the world - we'd soon run out, oh
Santa's laughter mocks the poor, of that there is no doubt

I first heard this song on Hour of Slack #1182. Rev. Stang said that in this video, you could see what he and Rev. Diva Schematic really looked like. Even though he was obviously joking, I gotta say, that Santa puppet DOES actually look a little like Rev. Stang.

ahh...the time of year where we spend money on people we don't really like and receive gifts that we don't really want. plus suicide rates skyrocket.
