Story Behind The Song
A woman is swept off her feet by a modern day "Santa Claus,." This Santa gets her going in his "dance" and she travels to experiential places she's never been before. The relationship is doomed, as this Santa is a roamer, leaving, but also leaving gifts. The woman is changed after the experience and will pass on as she embodies the "Santa Claus."

Lyrics
He blew in from the North Pole
Cutting through my skin and my flesh and my soul
Let the games begin
When he said that he wanted to dance
I saw him for what he was
A 21st century Santa Claus
A 21st century santa claus
Dashing and prancing he brought out my vixen as he
Rounded me up
I was falling through quicksand
I lost all the feeling I had in my legs
I was flying through the air of course
pinky finger turned to paws
With my 21st century santa claus
Then it began to snow
Drank tea made from mistletoe
Again the room started reeling
Visions of sugar plums danced on my ceiling, ceiling
I was driving this time
Cutting through the air with the
Wind at my back and tinsel in my hair
Now when I ask you to dance just
See me for what I was
A 21st century santa claus
A 21st century santa claus
A 21st century santa claus
