Santa Claus Is Coming To Town
Jim Lyrics

I just came back from a lovely trip along the Milky Way
I returned from a pleasant trip through the galaxy

Stopped off at the North Pole to spend a holiday
I made a pit stop at the North Pole for a vacation

I called on dear old Santa Claus
I visited the beloved Santa Claus

To see what I could see
To observe what was possible

He took me to his workshop
He brought me to his factory

And told his plans to me, so
And explained his intentions to me

You better watch out, you better not cry
You should pay attention and avoid crying

Better not pout, I'm telling you why
Don't become sad, I'll explain the reason

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is arriving in the city

He's making a list and checking it twice
He's creating a list and examining it twice

Gonna find out who's naughty and nice
He plans to distinguish between those who are good and those who are bad

He sees you when you're sleepin'
He's observing when you're asleep

He knows when you're a wake
He's aware when you're awake

He knows if you've been bad or good
He's knowledgeable about whether you've been well-behaved or poorly-behaved

So be good for goodness sake
Therefore, be well-behaved for the sake of being a good person

With little tin horns and little toy drums
With small metallic horns and toy drums

Rooty toot toots and rummy tum tums
Musical sounds of celebration and excitement

And curly head dolls that toddle and coo
Plus dolls with curly hair that walk and make soft noises

Elephants, boats, and kiddie cars too
Also toy elephants, boats, and small cars

Then kids in Girl and Boy land will have a jubilee
The children in the land of girls and boys will have a joyful celebration

They're gonna build a Toyland all around the Christmas tree
They're intending to create a land of toys centered around the Christmas tree

Now Santa is a busy man, He has no time to play
Santa is a hardworking man; he's too busy to engage in leisure activities

He's got millions of stockings to fill on Christmas day
He has to stuff millions of stockings on Christmas day

You'd better write your letter now
You should write your letter immediately

And mail it right away
And send it promptly

Because he's getting ready
Because he's preparing

His reindeer's and his sleigh. So
His reindeer and sleigh are prepped. Thus,
