Santa Claus is Coming to Town sounds like every totalitarian regime in history.

The great part about it is most dictators names' are three syllables long, so "Santa Claus" can be replaced with "Joseph Stalin", "Adolf Hitler", "Kim Il-sung", "Kim Jong-il", "Mao Zedong" or "Ho Chi Minh". No other words need to change and the song will make sense unless you go on to the third or fourth verses.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

George Bush or George Dub-ya Bush doesn't fit. But Barack Obama, on the other hand...

Okay. I was drunk when posting. Four-syllable names work well, too.

I'm never sure if you're serious, trolling or just looking for things to get you pissed.
