Santa Clause is coming to drown - between the lines

Santa Clause is coming to drown - between the lines

Many popular songs are shaped through the language of punishment, reward, sin, debt, fault, and redemption.
I like to rephrase them for authenticity and peace and humanity.

This is a remake of the song “Santa Claus is coming to town”

       G
  You better watch out
       C
  You better not cry
       G
  You better just hide
( -   "    - ignore )
    C
  What is inside
          G      Em        Am    D7 G
  'cause Santa Claus will punish it out!
(                                no doubt! )
(                                around! )
          G
  If you believe in this -
           C
  That he makes a list
( That he's making a list )
              G
  He's some kind of god
( He's (kind of) a god )
          C
  Then, he should be dismissed:
          G       Em   Am      D7 G
  There shall be only one god around!
  
         Dm        G       C
  If he knows when you are sleeping
         Dm         G      C
  And he knows when you're awake
        Em      A       D
  He's working for the NSA
      Em        A     D
  And much more is at stake.
  
       G
  You better straight out
      C
  Be telling a lie
   G
  Garble your heart,
            C
  Make your feelings die
          G     Em    Am         D7  G
  'cause Santa Claus rewards it, no doubt!
