Verse 1:

D5           F#5              G5                D5
Down in the workshop all the elves were making toys

        G5            G5              A5           D5
For the good Gentile girls and the good Gentile boys

         D5           F#5       G5                  D5
When the boss busted in, nearly scared 'em half to death

         G5            G5               A5              D5
He had a rifle in his hands and cheap whiskey on his breath




Verse 2:

From his beard to his boots, he was covered in ammo
Like a big, fat, drunk, disgruntled, Yuletide Rambo
And he smiled as he said, with a twinkle in his eye,
"Merry Christmas to all! Now you're all gonna die!"




Chorus:

B5  D5     B5         D5
The night Santa went crazy

B5  D5           A5         D5
The night Saint Nick went insane

B5 D5               B5        D5
Realized he'd been getting a raw deal

B5        D5                 A5              D5
Something finally must have snapped in his brain



Verse 3:

Well, the workshop is gone now, he decided to bomb it
Everywhere you'll find pieces of Cupid and Comet
And he tied up his helpers and he held the elves hostage
And he ground up poor Rudolph into reindeer sausage



Pre-chorus 1:

D5
He got Dasher and Dancer with an old German luger

       G5       F#5            A5          D5
And he slashed up Dasher just like Freddy Kreuger

D5
And he picked up a flamethrower and he barbecued Blitzen

       G5        F#5              A5                   D5
And he took a big bite, and said "It tastes just like chicken!"
