Join two pirates on their comical journey of auditioning to be Santa. One that loves Christmas and one that well.... loves being a pirate. Who will get the job?

lyrics

Big fat man in red, who flies around and gives out joy and toys and other things
That make us happy on this cold dark Christmas Eve.
Here’s another thing, the deer drank Redbull earnt themselves some wings
And flew around this winter town, this time of year, no need to frown.

I auditioned to be Santa
There’s just one Claus I’d have to make toys and visit all the girls and boys.
I auditioned to be Santa.
But I don’t quite get his mantra

Big fat man in red, who flies around and gives out joy and toys and other things
That make us happy on this cold dark Christmas Eve.
In response to him, the girls and boys, that make me smile
are happy knowing everything gets better after Santa visits town.

They said me being fat won’t cut it,
I must spread the joy this time of year, I’d rather sit and drink my beer.
They said me being fat won’t cut it,
I’d rather be an alcoholic.

Big fat man in red, who flies around and gives out joy and toys and other things
That make us happy on this cold dark Christmas Eve.
Here’s another thing, I eat my veggies, work out through the Spring
This Santa suit is stuffed with fluff, check out my six pack, I am buff.

I don’t even like you Santa,
You don’t ride a horse, you ride a deer and that is weird just like your beard
I don’t even like you Santa,
Had enough of Christmas banter.

Big fat man in red, who flies around and gives out joy and toys and other things
That make us happy on this cold dark Christmas Eve.
In response to him, I wish him well and hopefully he’ll write to me his Christmas list
And all I wish him is the best.

I auditioned to be Santa (he auditioned to be Santa)
I auditioned to be Santa (he auditioned to be Santa)
I got the job of being Santa
and I really love my mantra
