lyrics
Some people say that he's crazy
Parks on the roof and makes reindeer fly
Turns the chimneys to casinos
In his red and white tuxedo
He's been watching for the naughty since July
Some people say that he's lazy
Just reading letters from girls and boys
Eating cookies for donation
Takes eleven months vacation
Always telling all the elves to build his toys
But ooh, ooh, that Christmas Man
He never lets me down
He never shows his face
But ooh, ooh, that Christmas Man
And when he comes to town
I'm gonna stay up waiting
Stay up waiting for him
Some people say he's amazing
Around the world in a single night
Dropping presents from the sky
With that ol' twinkle in his eye
The stars and moon his only guiding light
Merry Christmas and to all he says Good Night
But ooh, ooh, that Christmas Man
He never lets me down
He never shows his face
But ooh, ooh, that Christmas Man
And when he comes to town
I'm gonna stay up waiting
Stay up waiting for him
Parks on the roof and makes reindeer fly
Turns the chimneys to casinos
In his red and white tuxedo
He's been watching for the naughty since July
Some people say that he's lazy
Just reading letters from girls and boys
Eating cookies for donation
Takes eleven months vacation
Always telling all the elves to build his toys
But ooh, ooh, that Christmas Man
He never lets me down
He never shows his face
But ooh, ooh, that Christmas Man
And when he comes to town
I'm gonna stay up waiting
Stay up waiting for him
Some people say he's amazing
Around the world in a single night
Dropping presents from the sky
With that ol' twinkle in his eye
The stars and moon his only guiding light
Merry Christmas and to all he says Good Night
But ooh, ooh, that Christmas Man
He never lets me down
He never shows his face
But ooh, ooh, that Christmas Man
And when he comes to town
I'm gonna stay up waiting
Stay up waiting for him
