SANTA IS RETIRING

They passed a law at Yule Tide
You have to stop work at 65
So Santa is retiring this year
He tried to hang on but what could he do
Someone found out he's 402
So Santa is retiring this year

The women's groups were saying
That he should be a her
Animal rights groups say his suit
Should not be trimmed with fur

It ain't fair, it ain't right
To fire a guy cause his hair is white
But Santa is retiring this year
I guess he'll live Sure he'll be O.K.
Red's not his colour anyway
So Santa is retiring this year

They won't give him a pension
It's makes you want to cry
They say he only worked one day
So he doesn't qualify

Of all the cut-backs it's the last straw
They're down sizing Santa Claus
Santa is retiring this year
In the future I guess we'll
All have to sit on Jean Chretien's knee

Cause Santa is retiring and they won't be rehiring
In Canada itself where they're cutting back on elf-care
Santa is retiring this year

To the tune of Santa Claus Is Coming To Town
