Merry Xmas Everybody
Kim McAuliffe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's the time that every Santa has a ball
Does he ride a red nosed reindeer?
Does he turn up on his sleigh?
Do the fairies keep him sober for a day?
So here it is,
Merry Christmas,
Everybody's having fun,
It's only just begun.
Are you waiting for the family to arrive?
Are you sure you've got the room to spare inside?
Does your Granny always tell you
That the old songs are the best,
Then she's up and rock 'n' rollin' with the rest...
So here it is,
Merry Christmas,
Everybody's having fun,
Look to the future now
It's only just begun.
Are you hanging up a stocking on your wall?
Are you hoping that the snow will to start to fall?
Do you ride on down the hillside
In a bobby you have made?
When you land upon your head then you've been Slade.
So here it is,
Merry Christmas,
Everybody's having fun,
Look to the future now
It's only just begun. (x 4
