Lyrics:Christmas time is here, by golly,
Disapproval would be folly,
Deck the halls with hunks of
holly,
Fill the cup and don't say "when".
Kill the turkeys, ducks and chickens,
Mix
the punch, drag out the Dickens,
Even though the prospect sickens,
Brother, here we go
again.

On Christmas Day you can't get sore,
Your fellow man you must
adore,
There's time to rob him all the more
The other three hundred and
sixty-four.

Relations, sparing no expense'll
Send some useless old utensil,
Or
a matching pen and pencil.
"Just the thing I need! How nice!"
It doesn't matter how
sincere it
Is, nor how heartfelt the spirit,
Sentiment will not endear it,
What's
important is the price.

Hark the Herald Tribune sings,
Advertising wondrous
things.
God rest you merry, merchants,
May you make the Yuletide pay.
Angels we have
heard on high
Tell us to go out and buy!

So let the raucous sleighbells
jingle,
Hail our dear old friend Kris Kringle,
Driving his reindeer across the
sky.
Don't stand underneath when they fly by
