《Conspiracies(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] We don't believe in You know who

[00:00:01] But we don't let the kids know it

[00:00:03] We're parents who are grown ups

[00:00:05] There's a line we have to toe it

[00:00:07] But we're part of a conspiracy

[00:00:09] About this bearded big fat guy

[00:00:12] Who isn't real who never lived

[00:00:14] Who's old but doesn't die

[00:00:17] We went to the department store

[00:00:19] We climbed out on that limb

[00:00:20] Told the kids that it was You know who

[00:00:24] We said that bum was him

[00:00:26] Then we placed them on his knee

[00:00:29] To me the knee seemed rather bony

[00:00:31] Happily they sat though chatting with that phony

[00:00:36] Told the kids we could provide the proof

[00:00:40] Deceit how I hate it

[00:00:44] We put out the milk and cookies

[00:00:46] Yes I admit I drank and ate it

[00:00:48] Then that fib about the North Pole

[00:00:51] Is if any Elves could live there

[00:00:53] We helped to write and send that letter

[00:00:55] Knowing full well it went nowhere

[00:00:59] You know who comes down the chimney

[00:01:04] How could such a fat man fit

[00:01:06] The whole thing is preposterous

[00:01:08] Yet we get children to buy it

[00:01:10] We have no shame the lies pile up

[00:01:14] You think at least we'd bark

[00:01:15] When we sing of red nosed reindeer

[00:01:17] And snowmen who dance and talk

[00:01:22] Well it's just a harmless story

[00:01:24] A fairytales and Christmas fun

[00:01:31] Not unlike that other theory

[00:01:35] The one about Gods Son

[00:01:38] Where Angels talk to shepherds

[00:01:40] Wise men troop after a star

[00:01:44] And a Virgin has a baby

[00:01:48] Boy that's fetched pretty far

[00:01:51] But we adults buy that conspiracy

[00:01:54] We toe and swallow that old line

[00:01:56] Disappearing milk and cookies

[00:01:58] What about that bread and wine

[00:02:04] It's enough to make you hesitate

[00:02:07] It's enough to give you pause

[00:02:11] Perhaps it's just as crucial

[00:02:12] Kids believe in You know who
