"A Coffin For Christmas" lyrics

You've been bold, you've been amiss
You're going down on the naughty list
It's too late for a sorry note
Those crocodile tears won't rock the boat
A year of crime, you've had the time
But you didn't do what you were told
Your guilty mind is a certain sign
Your Christmas is gonna be cold

He's making a fist
He's decking you twice
He's gonna find out
You're bang to rights
You asked him for mercy
You're never getting that
Christmas is coming
And the noose is getting fat

A coffin for Christmas
How did you know?
A coffin for Christmas
And you're going down below

You square to Bob, you cross your heart
With a hand in the cookie jar
You knew it was wrong and you still carried on
You know just how naughty you are
Do your best to try and cry
Stick a needle in your eye
But your tongue is black, there's no way back
He'll go up your chimney tonight

He's making a fist
He's decking you twice
He's gonna find out
You're bang to rights
You asked him for clemency
But he said, no way
Uppance is coming
On a one horse open slay

A coffin for Christmas
How did you know?
A coffin for Christmas
You're going down below
A coffin for Christmas
Please! Try and look surprised
A coffin for Christmas
And it's just your size

The mission bells are ringing
The studded mace is swinging
Now you're the turkey
Getting basted for a living
You had your fill of evil
But life makes other plans
Saint Nicholas has had enough
Don't you understand?

A coffin for Christmas
How did you know?
A coffin for Christmas
You're going down below
A coffin for Christmas
Try and look surprised
A coffin for Christmas!
And it's just your size!
