[Atlas Sneezed]

He throws down the gauntlet immediately with the twinkling pep of “Here Comes Santa Claus,” one of the most annoying carols ever written.

Actually, it is one of the few about Santa Claus that puts Christianity first. Here’s the final two verses:

Here comes Santa Claus,
Here comes Santa Claus,
Right down Santa Claus Lane,
He’ll come around when chimes ring out,
It’s Christmas time again.
Peace on earth will come to all,
If we just follow the light,
So let’s give thanks to the Lord above
‘Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.

[La Lydia]

I have an old 78 of Here Comes Santa Claus by Gene Autrey that I found at a used record store about 15 years ago. He pronounces it “Here comes SannaClaws.”

Peace on earth will come to all,
If we just follow the light,
So let’s give thanks to the Lord above
‘Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.
