Song Lyrics

One more time, woah whoa whoa

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny little tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

'Cause they know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is going to spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
From kids to one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times
Many ways, Merry Christmas to you

(Hey, go ahead)

"You know, sometimes it's
Good to be a little bit early
And spreading some holiday cheer
Any time of the year you can
Feel as though you can be pleasant
Towards your fellow man or woman
Because you're anticipating a gift, right?
But here's a trick, or the catch, or just a fact
Everyday life is a gift
Every day that you're here is another day that you have to be thankful for
But, man, that, it is like, heh, heh"

"You hear those little foot steps?
You see the little ones
They're, they're peepin'
They're tryna see what's that, what's that ruckus
They know that you're
They know that you're in cahoots with that man
You might be wrapping their gifts
But they're thinking"

That Santa's on his way
And he's loaded toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly, fly

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
From kids to one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times
Many ways, Merry Christmas
Ver-ver-very Christmas
I mean that every Christmas
Should, should be a blessed Christmas to you, yeah, yeah
