X-mas Song
Korn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
everybody was stoned, even the mouse
Man from the courthouse, and me from jail, I just settled down,
to get a piece of her tail
When all of a sudden, I heard such a clatter, I tripped on my dick,
and busted my bladder
I went downstairs, and what did i see, a fat little red fagget,
hanging from a tree
for the family queer
That's the end of my story, funny wasn't it, you see
She didn't even...
She didn't see my thing behind you, leave you for this private eye,
I was there to give'em near to my, zima zima mommy fah,
I'm gonna say this, hope it don't offend you, came to the grizma,
give'em a taste of me, give'em a little excitement to the damn monkey,
your monkey can stay with me,
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
ahhhh
ahhhhhhhh
Chevy took my brain, same old motherfucker sucked my dick that day,
he will never zima zima, never never not that day,
I'm really sick of all this excitement, yeah,
but he thinks he's better than me, uma zooma nooga dunga,
you can suck my dick all day, one, two, three, four,
Santa can suck my dick all day
The lyrics of Korn's X-Mas Song are intentionally provocative and crude, challenging the traditional Christmas imagery and themes. The song tells a story of a dysfunctional family gathering on Christmas Eve, where everyone is high or drunk, and even the mouse is stoned. The singer, who just got out of jail, is eager to have sex with his partner when they are interrupted by a noise. He goes downstairs and finds Santa Claus, who is portrayed as a "fat little red fagget hanging from a tree." Santa fills the stockings with drugs and alcohol and even a "big fat hairy dick" for the family's queer member.
The lyrics are full of profanity, sexual innuendo, and homophobic slurs, which can be interpreted as a critique of the commercialization and hypocrisy of the holiday. The singer's anger and resentment towards mainstream values, as represented by Santa Claus, are evident, as he taunts and challenges him to suck his penis. The final lines suggest that the singer is disillusioned with the idea of excitement and prefers to retreat to his own world of drugs and sexual obsessions.
Overall, Korn's X-Mas Song is a subversive, controversial, and nihilistic take on Christmas, challenging the norms and values associated with the holiday. It uses shock value and vulgar language to provoke and disturb the listeners, and it highlights the darker side of human nature and society.

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house, everybody was stoned, even the mouse
On the night before Christmas, the people in the house were all high on drugs, and even the mouse was not excluded.
Man from the courthouse, and me from jail, I just settled down, to get a piece of her tail
I and my friend, who had just been released from jail and the courthouse, respectively, got home to have sex with a woman.
When all of a sudden, I heard such a clatter, I tripped on my dick, and busted my bladder
Suddenly, I heard a noise, and in my haste to investigate, I stumbled and fell on my penis, and this caused me to hurt my bladder.
I went downstairs, and what did i see, a fat little red fagget, hanging from a tree
Upon getting downstairs, I was surprised to see a corpulent male homosexual with red skin hanging from a tree.
He stuffed the stockings, with reefers and beer, and a big fat hairy dick, for the family queer
The fat homosexual stuffed the stockings with drugs, alcohol, and a large, hairy penis specifically for the queer member(s) of the household.
That's the end of my story, funny wasn't it, you see She didn't even...
That's the end of my anecdote, and I hope it was amusing for you. By the way, she never even...
She didn't see my thing behind you, leave you for this private eye, I was there to give'em near to my, zima zima mommy fah,
She didn't notice me behind her as I watched her with a private investigator. I was there to offer some pleasure of my own, saying 'Zima Zima mommy fah' (possibly a reference to a childish rhyme).
I'm gonna say this, hope it don't offend you, came to the grizma, give'em a taste of me, give'em a little excitement to the damn monkey, your monkey can stay with me,
I'll say this, hoping it isn't offensive. I went to confront a beast, maybe 'grizma', and add some excitement by offering myself. Your beast can stay with me.

Chevy took my brain, same old motherfucker sucked my dick that day, he will never zima zima, never never not that day,
I feel like someone named Chevy took away or permanently damaged my rational thought process, and that I was fellated by someone who isn't new to me. It is doubtful that he will repeat this amazing experience with me, no matter what.
I'm really sick of all this excitement, yeah, but he thinks he's better than me, uma zooma nooga dunga, you can suck my dick all day, one, two, three, four,
I'm getting tired of this thrills and spills, although he seems to feel superior to me. 'Uma zooma nooga dunga' is an unclear phrase that could possibly refer to something supernatural. In any case, he can perform oral sex on me for an entire day.
Santa can suck my dick all day
Santa Claus is welcome to perform fellatio on me for an entire day.
