Last night, I couldn't sleep, so tossed the covers
and went to sneak around and oh, what a sight
The jolly fat man himself there hugging my mother
and I thought "Oh, wow! That X-Box is so mine"!

But last night, old Santa let me down
'cause today an X-Box can't be found
He was my friend at the mall in town
but last night, old Santa let me down

So, underneath my tree was a dumb football,
a bunch of clothes and a couple of board games
And I'm so annoyed right now at my own Ma
that I just might tell Dad her secret today

'Cause last night, old Santa let me down
How could he be such a cheap clown?
Then, do my mom and just leave town?
Yeah, last night, old Santa let me down
