The Real One from Korvatunturi

[Verse 1] Know where the real Santa lives? Nah? No worries, us Finns don't either. In Korvatunturi, that big fell up northeast, That's his home, straight fact, no cap. But the exact address? Only him and his tiny helpers know, The elves, super small, just 15 centimeters tall. [Chorus] Oh, Santa from Lapland, yeah! Reindeer through the night, Rudolph up front with his red nose glow. Gifts for kids worldwide, hustle hard till Christmas Eve, But he's happy, with his wife – 120 years younger, married over 300! [Verse 2] Works day and night, packing thousands of wishes tight, Elves pitch in, never in the way, too little to fight. No roads, no maps to the fell area, Reindeers handle nav, boss one's Rudolph, shining bright. Early Christmas morn: "Let's go, team, world tour kicks off now!" Sleigh loaded, magic hits, doorbell rings – he's here! [Chorus] Oh, Santa from Lapland, yeah! Greetings from the north, gifts and hot mulled wine in tow. Kids sing songs, recite poems so sweet, Then onward, tons of houses waiting, the day's long and neat. [Bridge] After the run, back home, tired reindeers and him, Wife's waiting with open arms, and a steamy sauna – true Finn! As a kid at ours: Rudolph waited outside town, scared of street noise, Wanted to pet him, gutted, total disappoint. [Verse 3] Santa says bye, I dash to the window, wave him off, Guess what I spot? Jumps in a VW Beetle, drives away scoff! Haha, the real deal, Finnish practical, no sleigh in the city rush, But magic stays, Christmas rocks, yeah, forever plush! [Outro/Chorus-Fade] Santa from Lapland... (repeat and fade) Yeah, Merry Christmas, from Korvatunturi!
