Momma told me, "Boy, you best behave, 'Cause Santa keeps a list of all his faves. And if you don't shape up, you ain't gettin' squat."
But the devil on my shoulder's gettin' hot.

The Duke of

We look back and say,
Hey, that was fun.
When all you wanted was a
BB gun, Santa
Claus never did come. {

We look back and say,
Hey, that was fun.
So he took me for a ride in his big ol' sleigh.
We flew around the world in just one day.

I said, "Sir, what you got for me in that sled?"
Instead, he said, "Boy, you been bettin' on a darker shade of red."
Hotter than
Heaven, Cool outta sight.
Duke of Deception,
Malice, and
Spite. Johnny is singin', (Johnny is singin',) "Remember tonight: If you gotta do wrong,
