Lyrics
Snowy flakes, fruity cakes
The holidays are here
It’s a joyous Christmas quake
That happens once a year
Reindeer angels singing hymns
On a giant glove
Candy buns, mittened limbs
In a chimney full of love
Oh each year I dream for snowfall
Then watch my dreams melt under the sun
Spread the warmth, of the fire
All across the town
Burning spirits of the choir
You’ll never see a frown
Stockings, kids, flashing lights,
Tunnels in the snow
Stay out there until the night
You’re warm before you go
No time to sleep with Christmas so close
Time is of the essence at can’t you see?!
Hide some bells, in your shoes
To brighten up your sole
Pour glitter, in your booze
Light up your drinking hole
Just do flips, all the time
Build chimneys for the poor
Always speak in a rhyme
And buy a Mandarin orange
How I wish that Jesus was born
Every single day
Snowy flakes
Fruity cakes
Oh what a merry
(Oh what a merry)
Oh what a merry time
