(To the tune of “Here Comes Santa Claus” by Gene Autry)

Little green Santa Claus
Little green Santa Claus
Zippin’ ‘cross the sky!
Not exactly what you’d expect
But let me tell you why.
The real Saint Nick died long ago
But someone admired his worth,
So little green men from outer space
Bring joy to the kids of Earth.

Little green Santa Claus
Little green Santa Claus
Zippin’ ‘cross the sky!
Didn’t you wonder just what makes those
Reindeer really fly?
Image projection technology
Makes for a prettier sight
Than a flying saucer landing on your house
In the middle of Christmas night.

Little green Santa Claus
Little green Santa Claus
Zippin’ ‘cross the sky!
If you haven’t guessed by now,
Those elves are really sly.
Molecular transport buffers hold
A mighty big load of toys,
And quantum computing makes it easy to track
The good little girls and boys.

Little green Santa Claus
Little green Santa Claus
Zippin’ ‘cross the sky!
Santa really comes down the chimney,
Brother, that’s no lie.
The suit is really a hologram,
Santa’s four feet in height,
And those milk and cookies will power the ship
When Santa Claus comes tonight!

He’s gonna blast off
He’s gonna fly high
He’s headin’ far out
I’m tellin’ you why
Santa Claus is going to Mars!

He’s loading his ship
He’s counting down twice
Santa knows astronauts really are nice

Santa Claus is going to Mars!
He sees you when you’re weightless
He knows when you’re in space
He knows if you’ve left Earth orbit
He can reach you any place!

Oh!  He’s gonna blast off
He’s gonna fly high
He’s headin’ far out
I’m tellin’ you why
Santa Claus is going to Mars!
