Zwarte Pieten Stijl !
This is wrong on so many levels but basically it's that same old story of a bunch of black slaves going about abducting children, putting them in a big sack and taking them to Spain on the orders of the Bishop of Istanbul
- but in a Gangnam Style

You missed out "Sung by Germans who've been blacked up".
It's the icing on what appears to be a particularly tangy racism cake!

Dutch actually
We have Santa and his elves, the Dutch have the Bishop of Istanbul (Saint Nicholas) and his "Black Pete" Slave (Zwarte Piet)

Similarly, Spain has a Black(ed up) King with two others who come out on Jan 6th to give the children sweets - you know like from the Bible.
Less racism, more morality tale.
In Germany, on the night of December 5th-6th, St. Nicholas Day, children leave their shoes or boots outside the front door. Then either Santa Claus, (i.e Saint Nicolas), visits and fills them with chocolates, oranges and nuts if they’ve been good. Or if they've been bad his servant Rupert (knecht Ruprecht) leaves bundles of twigs in the shoes and writes their name in his ‘black book’.
And not at all racist, look: concordiagrevenbrueck.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/st-nikolaus-und-knecht-ruprecht2.jpg

Sung by Dutchman
Actually....
All very festive at this time of year; St Nicholas comes over from Spain with his little black helpers who give good kids sweets and kidnap bad kids and take them back to Spain.
Not sure what they do with them there, probably eat them.
it is all true beacause it is shown on national news

Sinterklaas was the original Santa Claus created by the Dutch.
Or something.
Did you also know that New York used to be called New Amsterdam, until the dutch sold it to the British for some hot climate colony.

Swapped it for a Tulip probably
My money's on Stanta Claus being a phonetic derivative of the german St. Nikolaus (the patron saint of children) The whole modern day christmas story started in England with Prince Albert when he married Queen Victoria and she adopted the German tradition.
Or then again it may be something to do with Coca Cola.
