Tie up your boots!
Jump off the ladder!
Pack up your clothes
Nothing's the matter
Mistletoes hangs up in the bedroom,
Your sister's bangs,
She cut them herself
Santa is here
Sleigh bells are ringing
Twenty-one elves
They are singing,
K-mart is closed,
So is the bakery,
Everyone's at home watching tv,
Santa Claus is coming,
Here the banjo strumming
Here the banjo strumming

Chestnuts and fire, holly and hay
Jesus and Mary, what a great day
Every tree, covered in snow
Tower of Babel, tower of glow
There's Aunt Marie, hand on the fire,
They give us good juice,
Hijack a snow plow,
Clear out the streets,
Tell all of the neighbors there's cookies to eat,

Off the floor and get the shop
Never liked to shout a lot
Santa clause is coming to town
He's got the greatest gifts in town,
Away in a manger,
No room for a shed,
The stars in the sky looked downward at they,
