Song Lyrics

Christmas bells are ringing
Christmas bells are ringing
Christmas bells are ringing
On TV, at Saks

Honest living, honest living
Honest living, honest living
Honest living, honest living

Can't you spare a dime or two
Here but for the grace of God go you
You'll be merry I'll be merry
Tho Merry ain't in my vocabulary
No sleigh bells
No Santa Claus
No yule log
No tinsel
No holly
No hearth

No Rudolph the red nosed reindeer
Rudolph the red nosed reindeer
No room at the Holiday Inn, oh no
And it's beginning to snow

Hats, bats, shoes, booze
Mountain bikes, potpourri
Leather bags, girlie mags
Forty fives, AZT
No one's buying
Feel like crying

No room at the Holiday Inn, Oh no
And it's beginning to snow
How about a furr in perfect shape
Owned by an MBA from uptown
I got a tweed
Broken in by a greedy
Broker who went broke
And then broke down

You don't have to do this

Hush your mouth, it's Christmas

I do not deserve you, Angel

Give, give (Wait)
All you do (what's on the floor?) is give
Give me some way to show (Let's see some more)
To show (no, no, no)
How you've touched me so
Kiss me, It's beginning to snow

She said, "would you light my candle"
And she put on a pout
And she wanted you to take her out tonight? (right)
She got you out

She was more than okay
But I pushed her way
It was bad, I got mad
And I had to get her out of my sight (wait, wait, wait)

You said she was sweet
Let's go eat I'll just get fat
It's the one vice left, when you're dead meat

There, that's her
(Maureen?) Mimi!
(Woah) I should go

Hey, it's beginning to snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas

Follow the man, follow the man
With his pockets full of the jam
Follow the man, follow the man
Help me out, daddy, if you can

Got any D, man? (I'm cool)
Got any C man? (I'm cool)
Got any X? Any smack? Any horse?
Any joogie boogie boy? Any blow?

Hey

Hey

I just want to say
I'm sorry for the way

Forget it

I blew up
Can I make it up to you? (how?)

Dinner party? (That'll do)

Hey lover boy, cutie pie
You steal my client, you die

You didn't miss me, you won't miss her
You'll never lack for customers

I'm willin', I'm illin'
I gotta get my sickness off
Gotta run, gotta ride
Gotta gun, gotta hide, gotta go

And it's beginning to snow

Wish me luck Alison the protest is on

Got any C, man?
Mark, this is Mimi (hi)
She'll be dining (With us)

Here's a new arrival (that is an ounce)

Hates, dats, bats (That's my coat!)

We give discounts

I think we've met (Got any C, man?)

Let's get a better one

It's a sham (that's what he said)

I said it's a gram (But she's a thief)

But she brought us together

Which investor is coming?

I'll take the leather

Your father? (Damn)

Christmas bells are swinging
Christmas bells are ringing
Christmas bells are singing
In my dreams, next year

Once you donate you can go
Celebrate in Tuckahoe
You'll feel cheery
I'll feel cheery
Tho' I don't really know that theory
No bathrobe
No Steuben glass
No cappuccino makers
No pearls, no diamonds
No chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
No room at the Holiday Inn, oh no

And it's beginning to
And it's beginning to
And it's beginning to,
And it's beginning to,
Joanne, which way to the stage (snow!)
