[peekaboo_content name=”brutus” start=”hidden”]BRUTUS THE BACKUP REINDEER
Vixen the reindeer was sick and in bed
she came down with the flu and her face turned all red
Donner and Blitzen
made the decision
and took her off from pulling Santa’s sled
Brutus was the backup, he had never made the team
he was oh so excited to get called by the big chief
“we need a favor
we’re requesting your labor
are you available Christmas eve?”
Brutus had been lazy and he had a jolly gut
he had fallen of shape since he didn’t made the cut
but after Thanksgiving
he watched his eating
and by Christmas Eve he was ready to run!
Brutus didn’t have to do much but fill in space
all he basically did was run in place
it was cold as the rockies
and Rudolph’s so cocky
but it’s so much fun just to keep up the pace!
Chorus:
Brutus the backup reindeer
is filling in this year
making sure Santa Claus
can spread his cheer
all the boys and
and all the little girls
would have missed out on their gifts
but thank the lord we could call on brutus
buck up brutus! buck up brutus!
over all the rooftops
buck up brutus! buck up!
you saved christmas for us!

[peekaboo_content name=”holiday” start=”hidden”]HOLIDAY JOYRIDE
let’s drive around and look at every house
look at all the decorations that everyone put out
it must have taken them days to string up all the lights
they made a masterpiece we can admire tonight
oh its so fun! it’s so fun!
to pack the family in the car
and go looking at the lights
we’re on a holiday joyride tonight!
bring a thermos of cocoa and turn on the radio
to the holiday station playing all the songs we know
up front mama and daddy, sister in the back with me
maybe even the dog can come along and sit in between
oh its so fun! it’s so fun!
to pack the family in the car
and go looking at the lights
we’re on a holiday joyride tonight!
see that house over there- so bright you have to squint
it looks so nice but their electric bill is gonna be a mint
see their neighbors next door- they didn’t decorate at all
could be wrong but i doubt the two houses get along
oh its so fun! it’s so fun!
to pack the family in the car
and go looking at the lights
we’re on a holiday joyride tonight!
let’s count our blessings
that we have each other here
then we’ll pick our favorites
get ideas for next year
there’s Christmas magic
in the twinkling of their lights
we’re on a holiday joyride tonight

[peekaboo_content name=”santa” start=”hidden”]SANTA, CROSS ME OFF YOUR LIST
Santa, cross me off your list
i’ve been a bad boy this year
Santa, please don’t come around
I don’t deserve to have you here
Santa, I did my girl wrong
she’s all alone on Christmas Eve
Santa, why am I a fool
I picked the worst time to leave
Santa! Santa!
bring my baby back to me!
and could you give somebody else
all the gifts you meant for me
Santa, leave me in the cold
wishing i did things differently
Santa! Santa!
bring my baby back to me!
and when you visit her tonight
please leave this message for me
Santa, tell her I was wrong
and I’ll spend Christmas lonely
Santa, cross me off your list

[peekaboo_content name=”this” start=”hidden”] THIS IS MY CHRISTMAS BREAK
December 20 starts my Christmas holiday
then i’ll take the train ride home, pack my cares away
and shop downtown, spending all my money fast
full of excitement that the season’s here at last!
this is my Christmas, this is my Christmas break!
two whole weeks to do whatever i please
no busy schedules and no waking up early!
it’s Christmas soon, so let’s make the most of it
it only happens once a year and always goes so quick!
this is my Christmas, this is my Christmas break!
we will go skating in the park
we will go carol after dark
we won’t have a care until new year’s day
this is my christmas break!
snowflakes on the window and icy winds blow
its 30 degrees but it feels like 10 below
but I don’t care cause I’m on a holiday
and when we’re celebrating, shivers won’t get in the way
this is my Christmas, this is my Christmas break!

[peekaboo_content name=”again” start=”hidden”]IT’S CHRISTMAS TIME AGAIN!
would you believe that’s it’s Christmas time again? hello santa!
would you believe that the year’s come to an end?
well all around I see
people picking out their trees
and getting in the christmas spirit
and I know what that means
soon you’ll be here in your sleigh with your reindeer
soon you’ll be here just to spread Christmas Cheer
December’s come and I’ve missed you
but I know that I’ll be seeing you soon
and I’m happy that’s it’s christmas time again
How are the elves and how has the North Pole been?
How is your beard and how is the Mrs.?
have you checked your big list twice
who’s naughty and who’s nice
and made up all those presents
to deliver Christmas night?
pack them all up and then fly around the world
to the delight of every boy and girl
well a toy truck or chemistry set
I can’t wait to see what I get
and I’m happy that’s it’s christmas time again
won’t be long now until the night of Christmas Eve
won’t be long now until you shimmy down my chimney
and I maybe be fast asleep
but I promise I will leave
a couple of Christmas cookies
out for you to eat
when I wake up bright & early the next morning
and run down the stairs what a sight I will see
before I forget, let me say
thanks so much for heading my way
and I’m happy that’s it’s christmas time again

[peekaboo_content name=”tree” start=”hidden”]DECORATE THE CHRISTMAS TREE
there’s a big box up in the attic
written “Christmas” on it
open it up and packed away inside are
all our decorations
jingly bells and soft velvet ribbons
colored globes so shiny
silver tinsel, golden figurines to
decorate the christmas tree
every ornament
holds special sentiment
and a season’s memory
of the Christmases
we gathered from afar
around the Christmas Tree
hang a bow and gingerbread man
hang a paper snowflake
smell the fresh pine all around as we
decorate the christmas tree
every ornament
holds special sentiment
and a season’s memory
of the Christmases
we gathered from afar
around the Christmas Tree
string the lights around and around
so every bough is twinkling
place a star up high at the top
to decorate the christmas tree
raise a cup and squeeze in for a picture
of the whole big family
give our thanks
that we can be all be here to
decorate the christmas tree

[peekaboo_content name=”cane” start=”hidden”]LIKE RED AROUND A CANDY CANE
the snow outside
and fire bright
the warm glow of
the twinkling lights
i’ve waited long
for christmas time
to have you back here
by my side
your sweetness
always hooks me in
your kiss
tastes just like
peppermint
I wanna wrap my arms
around you again
like red around a candy cane
candy cane,
you’re all I wish for
candy cane,
we’ll spend the winter
tucked away from frosty weather
cuddled up inside together
mistetoe and
stockings hung
presents wrapped
and carols sung
but our evening has just begun
We’ll have a Christmas reunion
it’s been so long
since we’ve spent
the christmas season
hand in hand
I wanna wrap my arms
around you again
like red around a candy cane
candy cane,
you’re all I wish for
candy cane,
we’ll spend the winter
tucked away from frosty weather
cuddled up inside together
your sweetness
always hooks me in
your kiss
tastes just like
peppermint
I wanna wrap my arms
around you again
like red around a candy cane

and wonderment fills the air
a dazzling sight to see
first thing christmas morning

christmas morning
welcome all of our guests

[peekaboo_content name=”playing” start=”hidden”]PLAYING SANTA
playing santa with you
handing out the gifts we’ve
wrapped and hid from view
while the houselights glow
all kissed by snow
and faces light up
at the sight of ribbons and bows
simple acts of gratitude
but i’d trade the world
to trade this gift with you
and whether we’re giving
or receiving
there is always love exchanged
playing santa with you
is the best gift i could get
on christmas day
[/peekaboo_content]
[peekaboo_content name=”smell” start=”hidden”]THE SMELL OF A CHRISTMAS TREE
the smell of a christmas tree
brings back the memories
of all the cheerful holidays
that we have had
it drifts into every room
so lush and evergreen
a fragrance new and yet
familiar of the past
how our whole home is filled with joy
while the holiday scent
lingers in the air!
recall running ‘round the lot
and weaving through the trees
comparing carefully the
size and shape of each
then all of a sudden
making the discovery
of what is soon to be
our christmas centerpiece
how our whole home is filled with joy
while the holiday scent
lingers in the air!
how our whole home is filled with joy
while the holiday scent
lingers in the air!
the smell of a christmas tree
makes merriment complete
as the aroma of goodwill
flows everywhere
take pause for a moment
and sit right here next to me
take in the smell
of the christmas tree
[/peekaboo_content]
[peekaboo_content name=”pjs” start=”hidden”]SANTA PAJAMAS
i’m wearing my santa pajamas
and jumping in bed to go to sleep
i’m wearing my santa pajamas
and with any luck, when i wake up,
it’s christmas morning
in the back of my top drawer
there are clothes i’ve rarely worn
but these are just > a bit different
haven’t seen them in a year
it’s like they just can reappear
especially for this moment
i’m wearing my santa pajamas
and jumping in bed to go to sleep
i’m wearing my santa pajamdas
and with any luck, when i wake up,
it’s christmas morning
red and green with big snowflakes
and santa in his flying sleigh
repeating in a bright graphic
fit a little smaller now
but i don’t mind it anyhow
they’ll always have the same magic
i’m wearing my santa pajamas
and jumping in bed to go to sleep
i’m wearing my santa pajamas
and with any luck, when i wake up,
it’s christmas morning
and i’ll be wearing my santa pajamas
and just like magic christmas day begins
i’m wearing my santa pajamas
and tomorrow they’ll disappear again
