Christmas-y ballad with self-explanatory title...

Power pop with a decidedly 60's sound. Lotsa Brian Wilson influence in vocals and arrangements in general.

Lyrics
Somewhere there's a wahini That waits in her bikini But Santa's not gonna make that scene he knows... Theres no surfin at the north pole No surfin when its so darn cold All the woodies are covered in snow Theres no surfin at the north pole All the elves put their baggies away Stayin' inside everyday Not a chance for takin' that one last ride All work, no more bummin around Makin toys while the surf is down The sun doesn't last and not a wave in sight (Santa knows there's...) (chs) He's got a sleigh and his eight reindeer Christmas day is almost here But that's the only day that seems worth waitin' for He's been dreamin' of a sandy beach Ridin' waves at Waikiki But take a look outside and see that lonely board (and Santa knows there's...) (chs)

Fantastic "disappointed-surfer-song". All the expectations, sunshine and harmonies of hawaii, all the minor chords and anticlimax of the arctic circle .... and delivered so clearly despite tongue-in-cheek.

I really like the mood of this song, so really 60's or 70s and very Beach Boys like. You just feel the sun burning on your skin and you see the beach and the sea in front of you. So nice to go back in time sometimes. Enjoyed it!

Such a sunny Christmas tune - It may be about the north pole but the sound brings me straight back to southern California. Every harmonic twist is spot on, delivered with confidence and ease. Absolutely fantastic!
