Santa's laughter mocks the poor, it's Christmas time again You hear it in the songs of joy promoting fiscal gain You see it in the credit cards that flutter down the drain, cos Santa's laughter mocks the poor, and here it comes again Santa's laughter mocks the poor, it echoes in the night A nagging sound that makes you wonder if you got it right Everybody lies awake and thinks there's more to life, but Santa's laughter mocks the poor, and you're to blame tonight Santa, we love you Santa, don't you care? Why do you ignore us Santa? At this time of year Santa's laughter mocks the poor, a liability That taunts you every time you turn on one of your TVs Or choose the leather option, or a nice Moroccan tea oh Santa's laughter mocks the poor across the seven seas Santa's laughter mocks the poor, the catchiest of songs If everybody else is singing it, it can't be wrong You hear it in the news reports of panic in Hong Kong Santa's laughter mocks the poor, you've known it all along Santa's laughter mocks the poor, they just don't have the clout To make a difference in the way society's turned out Share out all the money in the world - we'd soon run out, oh Santa's laughter mocks the poor, of that there is no doubt
