Joel the Lump of Coal - The Killers,Jimmy Kimmel

[00:01.000]Some time ago, at Santa's place
[00:04.000]Up in the old North Pole
[00:06.000]There lived a lump of anthracite
[00:09.000]Whose parents called him Joel
[00:12.000]Joel, Joel, the lump of coal
[00:15.000]Happy as a lump can be
[00:18.000]He just wants to keep Santa warm
[00:21.000]And make the elves cozy
[00:24.000]But Santa Claus had other plans
[00:27.000]For Joel one fateful day
[00:30.000]"Joel, you're just the lump I need
[00:33.000]Come join me on my sleigh”
[00:36.000]Joel, Joel, the lump of coal
[00:39.000]Heart leapt up with joy
[00:42.000]"I'll soon be Santa's present to
[00:45.000]A lucky girl or boy
[00:48.000]We'll laugh and play together
[00:51.000]And hold each other tight
[00:54.000]Snuggle under clean white sheets when we go to sleep at night”
[01:00.000]Then Santa's elves all laughed at Joel
[01:03.000]"You're in for a surprise
[01:06.000]You're not a special Christmas gift
[01:09.000]You're just a booby prize
[01:12.000]What kid would ever want you?
[01:15.000]You're filthy as can be
[01:18.000]Now you have to go and live
[01:21.000]With one who's been naughty”
[01:25.000]"But I make heat, ” poor Joel cried
[01:29.000]"And electricity”
[01:31.000]"You pollute the air“
[01:33.000]With CO2 and mercury”
[01:37.000]Joel, Joel, the lump of coal
[01:40.000]Fell down upon his knees
[01:43.000]"I don't wanna live with a naughty kid
[01:46.000]Don't make me, Santa, please”
[01:49.000]But Santa laughed his jolly laugh
[01:52.000]"Ho, ho, you stupid lump
[01:55.000]You're just the thing to teach this brat
[01:58.000]That Santa ain't no chump”
[02:01.000]So off they flew and before he knew
[02:04.000]Joel was in a sack
[02:07.000]He cried and yelled to Santa Claus
[02:10.000]"Why don't we just go back?”
[02:13.000]And then came Christmas morning
[02:16.000]And, much to Joel's surprise (Much to Joel's surprise)
[02:19.000]He saw a boy with the saddest face
[02:22.000]And tears were in his eyes (Tears were in his eyes)
[02:25.000]He picked Joel up and held him
[02:28.000]And said "You can be my friend (Hey man, let's be friends)
[02:31.000]I would've liked some presents but
[02:34.000]You're what Santa chose to send (Santa chose to send)
[02:37.000]It's true, I've been a naughty boy
[02:40.000]And maybe that's a sin (Maybe that's a sin)
[02:43.000]If this is how Santa treats the kids
[02:46.000]I'm just glad that I'm not him”
[02:49.000]Joel, Joel, the lump of coal
[02:53.000]Knew what he must do
[02:55.000]He said "Now I know the reason why
[02:58.000]I got sent to you
[03:01.000]Cause when a person hurts inside
[03:04.000]It turns him hard and cruel
[03:07.000]But I know how to make your pain
[03:11.000]Into a precious jewel
[03:13.000]So take me in your hand, young man
[03:16.000]And squeeze with all your might
[03:19.000]Let's turn your pain and anger
[03:21.000]Into something that shines bright”
[03:25.000]Then Joel, Joel, the lump of coal
[03:28.000]He gave his life away
[03:31.000]So that one good naughty little boy
[03:34.000]Found a diamond on Christmas day
