Thanks very much to IDR who created the video above!

    We are free and fairly sober with so many toys to build.
    The machines are kind of tricky, probably someone will be killed,
    But we gladly work for nothing;
    “Which is good because we don’t intend to pay.”
    The elves are back to work today … Hurray!

    We have just a couple hours to make several billion gifts,
    And the labour isn’t easy when you all work triple shifts;
    “You can make the job go quicker,
    If you turn up the controls to super-speed.”
    It’s back to work on Christmas Eve!

    And though you’re cold and sore and ugly,
    Your pride will mask the pain.
    Let my happy smile warm your heart …
    “There’s a toy lodged in my brain.”

    We are getting awfully tired, and we can’t work any faster,
    And we’re very very sorry;
    “Why you selfish little ********! Do you want the kids to think
    Santa’s just a crummy empty handed jerk?”
    No!
    “Then shut your yaps and back to work!”

    Now it’s very nearly Christmas and we’ve done the best we could.
    These toys soldiers are poorly painted and they’re made from inferior wood.
    “I should give you all a beating, but I really have to fly.”
    “If I weren’t stuck here frozen, I’d harpoon you in the eye.”

    Now its back into our tennements to drown ourselves in rye.
    “You did the best you could, I guess that some of these gorillas are okay.”
    The elves have rescued Christmas Day! Hooray!
