The Night Santa Went Crazy Chords - "Weird Al" Yankovic
(C) Down in the workshop all the (F) elves were making (C) toys
For the (F) good Gentile girls and the (G) good Gentile (C) boys
When the (C) boss busted in, nearly (F) scared 'em half to (C) death
Had a (F) rifle in his hands and cheap (G) whiskey on his (C) breath
From his (C) beard to his boots he was (F) covered with (C) ammo
Like a (F) big fat drunk disgruntled (G) Yuletide (C) Rambo
And he (C) smiled as he said with a (F) twinkle in his (C) eye
"Merry (F) Christmas to all - now you're (G) all gonna (C) die!"
|[Chorus 1]
|F C F C F C G C
| The night Santa went crazy, The night Saint Nick went insane
|F C F C
| Realized he'd been getting a raw deal,
|F C G C
| Somethin' finally must've snapped in his brain
Well, the (C) workshop is gone now, he de(F)cided to (C) bomb it
Every(F)where you'll find pieces of (G) Cupid and (C) Comet
And he (C) tied up his helpers, and he (F) held the elves (C) hostage
And he (F) ground up poor Rudolph into (G) reindeer (C) sausage!
He got (F) Dancer and (C) Prancer with an (F) old German (C) Luger
Bb F C
And he slashed up Dasher just like Freddy Krueger
F F C
And he picked up a flamethrower and he barbecued Blitzen
F G C
And he took a big bite and said "It tastes just like chicken!"
|[Chorus 2]
|F C F C F C G C
| The night Santa went crazy, The night Kris Kringle went nuts
|F C F C
| Now, you can't hardly walk around the North Pole
|F C G C
| Without steppin' in reindeer guts!
[Bridge]
Bb F C
There's the National Guard and the FBI
G Bb F
There's a van from the Eyewitness News
C G
And helicopters circlin' 'round in the sky
Am F
And the bullets are flyin, the body count's risin'
D G C
And everyone's dyin' to know, oh Santa, why?
(F) My, my, my, my, my, (C) my You used to (F) be such a jolly (C) guy
C F C
Yes, Virginia, now Santa's doing time
F G C
In a Federal prison for his infamous crime
C F C
Hey little friend now, don't you cry no more tears
F G C
He'll be out with good behavior in seven hundred more years.
F C F C
But now Vixen's in therapy and Donner's still nervous
Bb G C
And the elves all got jobs working for the postal service
F C F C
And they say Mrs. Claus she's on the phone every night
Bb G C
With a lawyer negotiating the movie rights (They talk about)
|[Chorus 3]
|F C F C F C G C
| The night Santa went crazy, The night Saint Nicholas flipped
|F C F C
| Broke his back for some milk and cookies
|F C G C
| Sounds to me like he was tired of getting gypped
|F C F C F C G C
| The night Santa went crazy, The night Saint Nick went insane
|F C F C
| Realized he'd been getting a raw deal,
|F C G C
| Somethin' finally must've snapped in his brain
[Outtro]
F C G C
Whoa, somethin' finally must've snapped in his brain
F C G C
Tell ya, somethin' finally must've snapped in his brain...
