“Don’t Shoot Me, Santa” - The Killers

Para bajar la canción haz click sobre el título del post

Llegando fin de año "The Killers" nos sorprende con este gracioso single de navidad llamado “Don’t Shoot Me, Santa”.

Es raro, y al mismo tiempo una pena, que esta canción no haya formado parte de su reciente recopilación de "b-sides". Aunque eso nos importa bien poco, este temazo nos sirve para alegrar una época llena de nostalgia con su tono alegre y burlón, pero sobretodo con una letra hilarante que simula una conversación entre un "Santa Claus" asesino y un atormentado niño.

Por último, es bueno recordar que todos los beneficios de esta canción serán destinados a diversas organizaciones que apoyan la lucha contra el Sida en África, uniendose de este modo a la campaña "Join Red".

Enjoy it !

Oh Santa
I've been waiting on you
That's funny kid
Because I've been coming for you
Oh Santa
I've been killing just for fun
Well the party's over kid
Because I
Because I got a bullet in my gun
A bullet in your what?

Santa's got a bullet in his gun
You know it, Santa's got a bullet in his gun

Don't shoot me Santa Claus
I've been a clean living boy
I promise you
Did every little thing you asked me to
I can't believe the things I'm going through

Don't shoot me Santa Claus
Well no one else around believes me
But the children on the block they tease me
I couldn't let them off that easy

Oh Santa
It's been a real hard year
There just ain't no gettin' around this
Life is hard
But look at me
I turned out alright
Hey Santa
Why don't we talk about it?
Work it out
Believe me

This ain't what I wanted
I love all you kids, you know that
Hell, I remember when you were just 10 years old
Playing out there in the desert
Just waiting for a sip of that sweet Mojave rain
In the sweet Mojave rain
The boy was on his own

Don't shoot me Santa Claus
I've been a clean living boy
I promise you
Did every little thing you asked me to
I can't believe the things I'm going through

Hey Santa Claus
Well no one else around believes me
But the children on the block they tease me
I couldn't let them off that easy

They had it coming
So why can't you see?
I couldn't turn my cheek no longer
The sun is going down and Christmas is near
Just look the other way and I'll disappear forever

Woo!

Don't shoot me Santa Claus
Well no one else around believes me
But the children on the street they tease me
I couldn't let them off that easy

Believe me
Santa
Santa
