lyrics

if santa was real, i'd be on his naughty list
i'd forget to text him back, and i bet that would make him pissed
or i'd miss it when he called and just go about my day
only to realize that makes him think that i'm a fucking fake
i'd be a bad friend to santa, just like i am sometimes to you
and i know i'd make excuses but it's honestly not cool
he'd only come around on christmas night to drop off all the gifts
and when he'd say "we need to talk," i would know i'm on the shit list

cuz santa just wants to feel like he exists
and i know that i am capable of feeling this guilt
if i've treated you like santa
i promise i'll be better by next christmas
ill try to fulfill your christmas wish

if santa was real, he wouldn't put up with my shit
he'd get sick of me so quickly, just like good old saint nick
he would call me out when i don't match his effort in friendship
cuz we'd only hang out once a year, and some years i would dip
i'm a bad communicator, and that's all santa would want
someone to tell him how they felt and to tell him they fucked up
he would only watch me when i slept because he really cares
he would be the friend i wish i was if i wasn't always scared

cuz santa just wants to feel like he exists
and i know that i could be more like him if i gave a shit
if i've treated you like santa
i promise i'll start acting less like the grinch
and fulfill your christmas wish

i will be a real santa that exists
