Christmas, Christmas time is near,
Time for toys and time for cheer.
We've been good, but we can't last,
Hurry Christmas, Hurry fast.
Want a plane that loops the loop,
(Alvin:) Me, I want a Hula-Hoop.
(Chipmunks:)
We can hardly stand the wait,
Please Christmas don't be late.
(Dave:) Ok Fellas, Get ready.
That was very good, Simon.
(Simon:)Naturally!
(Dave:)Very Good Theodore
(Theodore:) He He He He
(Dave:)Uh Alvin, You were a little flat
So, watch it, Alvin...Alvin?...ALVIN!!!

Please Christmas don't be late.
The song "Here Comes Santa Claus" by The Chipmunks is a classic Christmas song that captures the excitement surrounding Christmas time. The song begins with Dave asking the Chipmunks if they are ready to sing their song. Alvin, Theodore, and Simon are eager to start, and they begin singing about how Christmas time is near and how it's a time for toys and cheer. While they have been good, they can't wait for Christmas to arrive, and they are anxious for it to come.
The Chipmunks then go on to list the things they want for Christmas, which includes a plane that does loop the loops and a Hula-Hoop. They can hardly stand the wait for Christmas to come, and they plead to Santa Claus not to be late with his arrival.
Overall, the song is a fun and upbeat tune that celebrates the joy and excitement of the holiday season. It captures the childlike wonder of anticipating the arrival of Santa Claus and the presents he brings. The Chipmunks' playful voices bring the song to life, and it has become a Christmas classic loved by children and adults alike.

I really enjoy listening to these songs.
The beginning sounds like a scene from Family Guy
@KnightSkyOfNight
LOL Weee! I forgot my video speed settings were left on 1.75 after listening to chipmunks on 16 speed! XD
(To those who don't know, the voice actors had to be recorded talking and singing slowly and clearly before their voices were made high pitched, of which could only be done by speeding up their voices at the time, thus the need to go slow. Since the music also had to be slowed down, it sounds incredibly dark, creepy, or depressing, and of course... slow. People actually make music like that, so the original recordings are labelled as sludge pop music. I personally can listen to it at any speed, but wanted to hear it at normal song speed, thus how I ended up forgetting to change it back to Normal speed.)
