Joel The Lump Of Coal - The Killers [00:00:00]
Some time ago, at Santa's place[00:00:05]
Up in the old North Pole[00:00:08]
There lived a lump of anthracite[00:00:11]
Whose parents called him Joel[00:00:14]
Joel, Joel, the lump of coal[00:00:17]
Happy as a lump can be[00:00:20]
He just wants to keep Santa warm[00:00:23]
And make the elves cozy[00:00:26]
But Santa Claus had other plans[00:00:29]
For Joel one fateful day[00:00:32]
"Joel, you're just the lump I need[00:00:35]
Come join me on my sleigh”[00:00:38]
Joel, Joel, the lump of coal[00:00:42]
Heart leapt up with joy[00:00:44]
"I'll soon be Santa's present to[00:00:47]
A lucky girl or boy[00:00:50]
We'll laugh and play together[00:00:53]
And hold each other tight[00:00:56]
Snuggle under clean white sheets[00:00:59]
When we go to sleep at night”[00:01:02]
Then Santa's elves all laughed at Joel[00:01:05]
"You're in for a surprise[00:01:08]
You're not a special Christmas gift[00:01:11]
You're just a booby prize[00:01:14]
What kid would ever want you?[00:01:17]
You're filthy as can be[00:01:20]
Now you have to go and live[00:01:24]
With one who's been naughty”[00:01:26]
"But I make heat, ” poor Joel cried[00:01:30]
"And electricity”[00:01:33]
"You pollute the air[00:01:35]
With CO2 and mercury”[00:01:38]
Joel, Joel, the lump of coal[00:01:42]
Fell down upon his knees[00:01:45]
"I don't wanna live with a naughty kid[00:01:48]
Don't make me, Santa, please”[00:01:51]
But Santa laughed his jolly laugh[00:01:54]
"Ho, ho, you stupid lump[00:01:57]
You're just the thing to teach this brat[00:02:00]
That Santa ain't no chump”[00:02:03]
So off they knew and, before he knew[00:02:06]
Joel was in a sack[00:02:09]
He cried and yelled to Santa Claus[00:02:12]
"Why don't we just go back?”[00:02:15]
And then came Christmas morning[00:02:18]
And, much to Joel's surprise(Much to Joel's surprise)[00:02:21]
He saw a boy with the saddest face[00:02:25]
And tears were in his eyes(Tears were in his eyes)[00:02:27]
He picked Joel up and held him[00:02:30]
And said "You can be my friend(Hey man, let's be friends)[00:02:33]
I would've liked some presents but[00:02:36]
You're what Santa chose to send(Santa chose to send)[00:02:39]
It's true, I've been a naughty boy[00:02:42]
And maybe that's a sin (Maybe that's a sin)[00:02:45]
If this is how Santa treats the kids[00:02:49]
I'm just glad that I'm not him”[00:02:51]
Joel, Joel, the lump of coal[00:02:54]
Knew what he must do[00:02:57]
He said "Now I know the reason why[00:03:00]
I got sent to you[00:03:03]
Cause when a person hurts inside[00:03:06]
It turns him hard and cruel[00:03:09]
But I know how to make your pain[00:03:12]
Into a precious jewel[00:03:15]
So take me in your hand, young man[00:03:18]
And squeeze with all your might[00:03:21]
Let's turn your pain and anger[00:03:24]
Into something that shines bright”[00:03:27]
Then Joel, Joel, the lump of coal[00:03:30]
He gave his life away[00:03:33]
So that one good naughty little boy[00:03:36]
Found a diamond on Christmas day[00:03:39]
