paroles de chanson Christmas Spirits (Radio Edit) - Sonata Arctica

"Hey, why don't you sit down, children.
Grandpa'll tell you a little story.
Not so long time ago, perhaps it was even last
Christmas, who's to say.
The following story took place in far north.
In a beautiful place where northern lights dance
In the wintry sky and millions of stars with
Smiling moon oversee this magical play.
They call this place Lapland.
As you know, this is where Santa Claus lives
Together with Mrs. Santa and countless elves
And other creatures.
Usually things go as planned, but one day,
Somehow, one of the elves found Santa's secret
Cabin filled with Christmas spirits...
An event that almost ruined Christmas."
Undecked halls, this seems fishy
Rudolph's running down to Santa's shack
"The elves are gone!! The times are busy!!
"I cannot build the toys with one pair of hands"
Oh my, the empty shelves, they found the hidden
Spirits of last Christmas, "Now I see...
Fuel yer nose, we'll search the city
Those guys will drink the world a dry of Irish things"
"Run, Rudolph run, with bells and whistles
We're searching every bar and guest house"
The Santa's call they'll heed, soon wobble
In a circle round the tilted Christmas tree
"Santa, pretty please,
Won't you let us have more Irish tea for
We'll be fuelled by Christmas Spirits
From this day on 'till the end of times"
"Why you little tea glazed monsters
These toys I see, they're not exactly for children, I believe...
You've gotta be out of your minds
These are toys of a different kind
What would you do with THIS one anyway..."
"Here's what we'll do... NOW!"
"Undo the mess, get back in the line now
Then go, build toys and a fiddle
24 days and nights in the moonlight
You'll work and here is a riddle"
"What doesn't have feet, still runs away... it's time"
"Alright, back to work now"
"So once again all was well in the house of Santa.
Toys were built and gifts got packed, as usual.
But every now and again you may just get something...
You did not really wish for.
And well, now you should have an idea why..."
"Enough with that infernal yodelling!! Get to work!!"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah...!"·$%/&@!!"
"Ohh shut up you!!"
"And this, children, is when Santa learned to hide his
Christmas spirits from the elves.
But you know, still, sometimes, during Christmas holidays,
If you are quiet and smell really carefully,
You just may find a tiny trail of Christmas spirit
In your very own home.
Now, time to turn in. Go go go.
Good night."
