Christmas Time In Hell
Satan The Dark Prince Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Maybe we'll have ourselves
A little Christmas, right here
C'mon everybody, gather 'round
String up the lights and light up the tree
We're gonna make some revelry
Spirits are high, so I can tell
Demons are nicer as you pass them by
There's lots of demon toys to buy
The snow is falling and all is well
It's Christmas time in Hell
There goes Jeffrey Dahmer
With a festive Christmas ham
After he has sex with it
He'll eat up all he can
And there goes John F. Kennedy
Carolling with his son
Reunited for the holidays
God bless us, everyone
Everybody has a happy glow
Let's dance in blood and pretend it's snow
Even Mao Tse Tung is under the spell
It's Christmas time in Hell
Adolf, here's a present for you
Oh, Ein Tannenbaum
Yes, Ein Tannenbaum
God cast me down from heaven's door
To rule in Hell forever more
But now I'm kinda glad that I fell
'Cos it's Christmas time in Hell
Here's a rack to hang the stockings on
We still have to shop for Genghis Khan
Michael Landon's hair looks swell
It's Christmas time in Hell
There's Princess Diana
Holding burning mistletoe
Over poor Gene Siskel's head
Just watch his weenie grow
For one day we all stop burning
And the flames are not so thick
All the screaming and the torture stops
As we wait for old St Nick
So, string up the lights and light up the tree
We're damned for all eternity
But for just one day, all is well
It's Christmas time in Hell
Get a toast together and make it quick
We've gotta make room for Andy Dick
Wake his mother and ring the bell
It's Christmas time
(Christmas time, Christmas time, Christmas time)
Christmas time
(Christmas time, Christmas time, Christmas time)
It's Christmas time in Hell
Merry Christmas, movie house
The lyrics of "Christmas Time in Hell" by Satan The Dark Prince describe a twisted version of the holiday taking place in Hell. The song starts off with the singer suggesting that they have a little Christmas celebration in Hell. The demons are in a good mood, and everything seems to be going well. The singer describes how the demons are nicer than usual, and there are lots of demon toys to buy. The snow is even falling in Hell, which is a strange occurrence.
The song takes a dark turn in the second half of the first verse, with the singer describing Jeffrey Dahmer carrying a festive ham that he will eat after having sex with it. Another unexpected guest arrives in the form of John F. Kennedy, who is reunited with his son for the holidays. The chorus is catchy and upbeat, with the demons dancing in blood in the place of snow. The singer even gives Adolf Hitler a Christmas present.
The second verse continues with the disturbing holiday imagery, including Princess Diana holding burning mistletoe above Gene Siskel's head, causing his "weenie" to grow. Despite the horror of it all, the song ends on a slightly hopeful note, with the demons waiting for Santa Claus and taking a break from their usual torture and screaming. Overall, the lyrics depict a dark and twisted version of Christmas that is definitely not for the faint of heart.
