Lyrics

Christmastime is the time for giving We learn this when we are small But from year to year it's the same ol' thing: Santa's coming to call We try to ignore it - forget it - This we know is true So this coming Christmas let's all make an effort Get a present for Santa too Let's trade in the old sled and the reindeer For a big car and a chauffeur Get a helicopter - oh can't you see That everyone loves Santa too Yeah Christmas is here and we're all having fun Santa's bought presents for everyone But he had to squeeze through a chimney for us - What a horrible place to pass Why not open your window or a front door So Santa can bring his gifts He's climbing to our rooftops and coming through our chimneys It's a whole lot of stupidness Move him from the North Pole to Rio Get him an apartment with modern equipment A maid and a butler - let's show our love For dear old Santa Claus Yeah Everyone's drinking their whiskey and rum Ol' Santa is getting on And his jingle bells, jingle bells, dear ol' Santa Claus Is wearing those same old clothes We should be ashamed - we should be plagued To treat Santa Claus like a brute So let's chip in some dollars, get him to the tailor's For a new continental suit Take him out to a night club or a movie Get him some fine chicks, throw him a party It's time to chip in and to do our share To make sure he comes more than once a year Yeah
