Crowder's 'Interlude II: Cookies' is a humorous, spoken-word interlude that reimagines Santa Claus as a devoted Christian. The lyrics playfully update the Santa story with modern touches like elf labor rights and a vacation, but the core message is that Santa loved Jesus and served God. The song encourages children to enjoy their gifts while remembering the true wonder of Christmas: the birth of Jesus. It blends lighthearted storytelling with a sincere reminder of the spiritual meaning of the holiday, making it a unique and festive addition to Crowder's catalog.

Fast-forward to now
Santa came 'round
And he's sharing his Yuletide praises
And as an employer...
As urged by his lawyer...
The elves received health care and raises
And as for the wishes
Of the honorable Mrs
Saint Nick booked a month down in Cabo
The jolly old chap
Burned red as his hat
But at least he learned how to Mambo
So don't worry children
The elves are still building
Your toy house, your tap shoes and sleds
Don your snowman apparel
And croon all the carols
And pray every night before bed
After all, it's no secret
Saint Nick, well, he loved Jesus!
He spent his whole life serving God
He probably knows more
About serving the Lord
Than even I, he is a saint after all
So go on girls and boys
Enjoy all your toys
But remember to believe there's more
Take it from Santa:
The wonder began the
Night that Jesus was born
