aider moi silvoupai je n'arrive pas à le fair

Some time ago, at Santa's place 
Up in the old North Pole 
There lived a lump of anthracite 
Whose parents called him Joel 

Joel, Joel, the lump of coal 
Happy as a lump can be 
He just wants to keep Santa warm 
And make the elves cozy 

But Santa Claus had other plans 
For Joel one fateful day 
"Joel, you're just the lump I need 
Come join me on my sleigh" 

Joel, Joel, the lump of coal 
Heart leapt up with joy 
"I'll soon be Santa's present to 
A lucky girl or boy 

We'll laugh and play together 
And hold each other tight 
Snuggle under clean white sheets 
When we go to sleep at night" 

Then Santa's elves all laughed at Joel 
"You're in for a surprise 
You're not a special Christmas gift 
You're just a booby prize 

What kid would ever want you? 
You're filthy as can be 
Now you have to go and live 
With one who's been naughty" 

"But I make heat," poor Joel cried 
"And electricity" 
"You pollute the air 
With CO2 and mercury" 

Joel, Joel, the lump of coal 
Fell down upon his knees 
"I don't wanna live with a naughty kid 
Don't make me, Santa, please" 

But Santa laughed his jolly laugh 
"Ho, ho, you stupid lump 
You're just the thing to teach this brat 
That Santa ain't no chump" 

So off they knew and, before he knew 
Joel was in a sack 
He cried and yelled to Santa Claus 
"Why don't we just go back?" 

And then came Christmas morning 
And, much to Joel's surprise (Much to Joel's surprise) 
He saw a boy with the saddest face
And tears were in his eyes (Tears were in his eyes) 

He picked Joel up and held him 
And said "You can be my friend (Hey man, let's be friends) 
I would've liked some presents but 
You're what Santa chose to send (Santa chose to send) 

It's true, I've been a naughty boy 
And maybe that's a sin (Maybe that's a sin) 
If this is how Santa treats the kids 
I'm just glad that I'm not him" 

Joel, Joel, the lump of coal 
Knew what he must do 
He said "Now I know the reason why 
He picked Joel up and held him 
I got sent to you 

Cause when a person hurts inside 
It turns him hard and cruel 
But I know how to make your pain 
Into a precious jewel 

So take me in your hand, young man 
And squeeze with all your might 
Let's turn your pain and anger 
Into something that shines bright" 

Then Joel, Joel, the lump of coal 
He gave his life away 
So that one good naughty little boy 
Found a diamond on Christmas day
