Santa Gey Gesunderheit

I used to think that it was tough
to get the Spring line out,
But here's a guy who really knows
what hard work's all about.
Billions of deliveries
with no option to be late,
That's a lot of shlepping,
Santa gey gezunderheit.

Oh all year long you're shvitzing
making countless wooden toys,
Paint 'em, wrap 'em, load 'em up
for all the girls and boys.
And Mrs. Claus is hocking
"Did you stay up far too late?
And those elves make such a racket!",
Santa gey gezunderheit.

Santa gey gezunderheit,
Santa gey gezunderheit,
Gotta work the territory,
Santa gey gezunderheit.

All that blinding snow and freezing cold
must make it hard to see,
You're lucky that you don't wind up
in someone's Christmas tree,
Or go crashing through the rooftop
of a billionaire's estate,
Have you got enough insurance?
Santa gey gezunderheit.

Santa gey gezunderheit,
Santa gey gezunderheit,
Gotta work the territory,
God forbid you should be late,
Santa gey gezunderheit,
Santa gey gezunderheit,
You're one tough Christmas cookie,
Santa gey gezunderheit.

You never get a word of thanks
for all the good you do,
By New Year's Eve you're hearing
people saying, "Santa who?".
And the kids have all exchanged
your lovely toys for inline skates,
They're such a bunch of chozzers,
Santa gey gezunderheit.

Santa gey gezunderheit,
Santa gey gezunderheit,
Gotta work the territory,
God forbid you should be late,
Santa gey gezunderheit,
Santa gey gezunderheit,
You're racking up the mileage,
Santa gey gezunderheit.

As I lay in bed December 24th
you're on my mind,
I think of all those chimneys up and down
which you must climb.
Flying downwind from those reindeer
wondering what the heck they ate,
What a way to make a living!
Santa gey gezunderheit.

Santa gey gezunderheit,
Santa gey gezunderheit,
Gotta work the territory,
God forbid you should be late,
Santa gey gezunderheit,
let me set the record straight,
You're the biggest in the business,
Santa gey, Santa gey gezunderheit.
Santa gezunderheit.
And don't forget your galoshes!
