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
Me, I want a hula hoop
We can hardly stand the wait
Please, Christmas, don't be late
Christmas, Christmas won't you come
Candy canes and sugarplums
Presents laid beneath the tree
One that says for you from me
See the choo choo chug along
Sing our merry Christmas song
We can barely concentrate
Please, Christmas, don't be late
Christmas love and Christmas joy
Fun for girls and fun for boys
Hug your mom and help your dad
Giving makes your spirit glad
May God bring His love to you
And to me, my hula hoop
We can hardly stand the wait
Please, Christmas, don't be late
We can hardly stand the wait
Please, Christmas, don't be late
