Santa Baby
Ariana Grande feat. Liz Gillies Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree
For me I've been an awful good girl
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa Baby, a fifty-four convertible too, light blue
I'll wait up for you dear
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed
Next year I could be just as good
If you'd check off my Christmas list

Santa baby, I wanna yacht and really that's not a lie
I've been an angel all year
Santa Baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa honey, the one thing that I really do need, the deed
To a platinum mine
Santa honey, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tiffany’s
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me

Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring
But I don't mean other phone
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight

So hurry down the chimney tonight
(Waiting, hurry)




(Tonight)
Hurry down the chimney tonight

Overall Meaning

In Ariana Grande's rendition of "Santa Baby," the singer is making a wish list for Santa Claus, asking him to bring her various items. The song is full of sexual innuendos and seductive lines. The opening lyrics, "Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree, for me I've been an awful good girl," reveal the sexual nature of the song. The fur she wishes to be given is a symbol of luxury and elegance, and it's likely that she wants to feel good about herself in something so prestigious. She then asks for a 54 convertible in light blue, reminding Santa that she'll wait up for him to fulfill her wish.


She goes on to plead her "goodness" and remind Santa of all the fun she's missed and all the men she hasn't kissed. To make up for it, she's asking Santa to hurry down the chimney and shower her with gifts. She also asks for a yacht and the deed to a platinum mine, showing her desire for wealth and extravagance. The song ends with her asking for a ring, making a final seductive plea to Santa to hurry down her chimney tonight.
