Walking home from our house Christmas Eve

You can say there's no such thing as Santa

But as for me and Grampa, we Believe
至于我与祖父,我们相信
She'd been drinking too much egg-nog

And we'd begged her not to go

But she'd forgot her medication

And she staggered out the door into the snow
又跌跌撞撞地出门走入雪中
When we found her Christmas Morning

At the scene of the attack
在出事的现场
She had hoof prints on her Forehead
她的额头上印有麋鹿的蹄印
And incriminating Claus marks on her back

Now we're all so proud of Grampa

He's been taking this so well

See him in there watching football
