Santa Baby
Jane Krakowski Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Been an awful good girl, Santa baby
And hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, a '54 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
Next year I could be just as good...
If you'd check off my Christmas list
Santa baby, I want a yacht and really that's not a lot
Been an angel all year; Santa baby,
So hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa honey, there's one thing I really do need,
The deed - To a platinum mine, Santa baby
So hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, I'm filling my stocking with the duplex, and checks
Sign your 'X' on the line, Santa cutie,
And hurry down the chimney tonight
Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tiffany;
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me
Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring
I don't mean a phone, Santa baby,
So hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry tonight
In Jane Krakowski's version of "Santa Baby," the singer is addressing Santa Claus with a playful and flirty tone as she lists her Christmas wishes. She asks for luxurious gifts like a sable, a convertible, a yacht, and even a platinum mine, but assures Santa that she has been a good girl all year, so she deserves it. The singer also mentions that she has missed out on some fun opportunities and potential romances throughout the year, but hopes to make up for it in the next one. Finally, she reminds Santa of a small, but important request for a shiny ring.
The lyrics of the song create a fun and lighthearted vibe that reflects the joy and excitement of the holiday season. The song is often interpreted as a humorous take on the commercialization of Christmas or as a commentary on societal expectations of women to be materialistic and dependent on men. However, the catchy tune, playful lyrics, and upbeat tempo have made "Santa Baby" a classic Christmas song that continues to be covered by various artists.
