Come for the coffee, stay for the racism.
As opposed to a Santa head on top of the Yule tree still attached to the rest of his body. The body presumably draped down the back side of the tree like a bearskin rug used as a cape.

Despite the questions raised by this photo, I will still order a side of sausage links.

I think it’s actually the correct phrasing: “decapitated Santa’s head” uses the possessive, meaning “the head belonging to a decapitated Santa.”

I’d say “Santa’s decapitated head” unless we’re taking about a generic Santa.

What is that in German?
Enthaupteter Nikolauskopf, maybe?
Entkörperter Nikolaus?

Isn’t the problem the redundant use of “decapitated” here? It should be “Santa’s head atop a Christmas tree”, no? You can’t put a head without a body anywhere without decapitating it.
