You can't walk barefoot across the kitchen tile
In the morning you have to let your car run for a while
The radio won't stop playing those jingles and lines
You know that it must be Christmas time
The malls are packed, the toys are stacked
You need to shop, no time to stop, a festive card for Mom and Pop
The best feelings come out with a simple chime
You know that it must be Christmas time
You know you feel it in the air, the time to share, the time to care
(Is Peter gay? (Huh?) Over there)
So grab a friend and dance all in a line
'Cause you know it must be Christmas time
The boys and girls are wishing (wish, wish, wish)
Santa would write them back (back, back, back)
They can't wait to go fishing (fishing in his big red sack)
Inside his big red sack (big red sack)
His big red sack, Santa's got a huge sack (huge sack)
So, if you're feeling down or blue
Hey buddy, I've got some good news for you
Get that chin up and let that smile shine
'Cause you know you it must be Christmas
I know it must be Christmas
We all know that it's Christmas time, Christmas time
You know it must be Christmas time
