he's not always down the chimney
or on his sleigh
some will tell you he's business as usual
and others that he's child's play

but father christmas is you
yeah father christmas is you and me
and the other three

he's not always wearing bright red
it's not always snowy white
the hair on his head
there's not always dozens of elves
pulling presents from the shelves
and the north pole isn't above his bed

cos father christmas is you
yeah father christmas is you and me
and the other three

father christmas is us
oh you and me and the other three
is us, oh you and me

his ho-ho-ho is sometimes high and sometimes low
all depends on who you know
i've heard he-he-he and ha-ha-ha too
it doesn't matter, santa's you

i've seen the presents you give
seen the way you try to live
the good deeds you do
the way you take heartache
and make marzipan cake cos santa's you

yeah father christmas is you
yeah father christmas is you and me
and the other three

father christmas is us
father christmas is us
father christmas is us
father christmas is us

christmas 2011
