I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus
CJ Crew Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Underneath the mistletoe last night
She didn't see me creep
Down the stairs to have a peep;
She thought that I was tucked up
In my bedroom fast asleep
Then, I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus
Underneath his bead so snowy white;
If Daddy had only seen
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night
At first glance, CJ Crew featuring Bunga Bunga's song, "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" might seem like a lighthearted Christmas song. However, a closer look at the lyrics reveals a story of parental infidelity witnessed by a child. The opening line, "I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus," could be interpreted as innocent playfulness between the mother and someone dressed as Santa. However, the next line reveals that the encounter was underneath the mistletoe, adding a sense of intimacy to the scene. The child watching this interaction is hidden, indicating secrecy and possibly shame.
As the song continues, the lyrics reveal that the mother is unaware of being watched by her child. The child sneaks downstairs and sees the mother tickling Santa Claus under his snowy white beard. The playful nature of this behavior is emphasized by the child's observation that "what a laugh it would have been if Daddy had only seen." This line suggests that the father is unaware of the mother's behavior with Santa Claus.

I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus
I witnessed my mother playfully poke Santa Claus
Underneath the mistletoe last night
They were standing beneath the mistletoe when this tickling occurred
She didn't see me creep
I approached them without being noticed
Down the stairs to have a peep;
I sneaked down the stairs to have a quick look
She thought that I was tucked up
My mother believed I was sound asleep in my bed
In my bedroom fast asleep
She thought I was sleeping really well in my room
Then, I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus
I kept watching as my mother tickled Santa Claus
Underneath his beard so snowy white;
The tickling happened under Santa's snowy white beard
Oh, what a laugh it would have been
It would have been hilarious if Daddy had witnessed this
If Daddy had only seen
It's a pity that my father was not there to share in the laughter
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night
What I actually saw was my mother tickling Santa Claus, but it would have been even more shocking if she had been kissing him
