Santa's Naughty List

Santa’s Naughty List By Elton Camp “He’s making a list, checking it twice Going to find out who’s naughty or nice” Santa once could arbitrarily decide Who to praise and who to deride Then, toward him, people felt sentimental Now he is being condemned as judgmental Where he once could tell at a glance Now he must consider the circumstance Nothing now is classified as right or wrong There’s no further need to sing that old song Once the naughty were as guilty as can be Now them are merely victims of society So Santa gave up keeping a list last year A stocking full of coal no kid need fear
