Em C
Sitting in the living room, staring at the decorations
D C
Feels so out of place in this house
Em C
Sucking on a toffee apple, munching on some pumpkin pie
D C
Seems so out of place in his mouth
Em C D C
Such incongruous cuisine, he eats a tangerine to clean his palate
Em C D
Someone get that man a mince pie, before he starts to cry
C
Ding dong merrily on high
C D G
What does Santa Claus do for Halloween?
D C
Oh, woah oh
C D Em
What does Santa Claus do for Halloween?
Em
Trick or treaters come a-knocking
C D C
At Saint Nicholas' door, but he ain't got no candy for them
Em C
Trick or treaters getting angry, throwing eggs at Santa's door
D C
But he tells them they'll be sorry come December 24
Em C
This holiday, it makes no sense, no Gold no Myrrh no Frankincense
D C
Baby Jesus would be taking offence
Em C D
Santa's slouching by the fire in his jovial attire
C
He collapses to his knees, won't somebody help him - please?
C D G
What does Santa Claus do for Halloween?
D C
Oh, woah oh
C D Em
What does Santa Claus do for Halloween?
C D G
What does Santa Claus do for Halloween?
D C
Oh, woah oh
C D Em
What does Santa Claus do for Halloween?
C D
And he lights a Jack-o-lantern, and he throws it in the road
G C
And the kids all start a-screaming as the lantern does explode
C D
But the parents of those kiddies hold old Santa to the ground
G C
Now Saint Nick is quite surrounded and Halloween is safe and sound
C D G
Oh, what does Santa Claus do for Halloween?
D C
Oh, woah oh
C D Em
What does Santa Claus do for Halloween?
