The cold wind is blowing and the streets are getting dark
I’m writting you a letter and I don’t know where to start
The bells will be ringing Saint John, The Divine
I get a little lonely every year around this time
The music plays all night in Little Italy
The lights will be going up on old Rockafella’s tree
People window shoppin’ on Fifth Avenue
All I want for Christmas is you
I wanna know
Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas
Where do lonely hearts go?
Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas
Because nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
Things are different since you’ve been here last
Childhood dreaming is a thing of the past
I hope you can bring us some cheer this year
The mothers and children in the street again
Do you remember sleigh ridin’ in the snow?
And dancin’ all night to “Baby, please come home”
Today’s celebration is bittersweet
There’s mothers and children in the street
I wanna know
Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas
Where do lonely hearts go?
Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas
Because nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
I’m all grown up, and it’s the same you’ll see
I’m writing you this letter, ’cause I still believe
Dear Santa, I’ve been good this year
Can’t you stay a little while with me right here?
I wanna know
I wanna know
Where do lonely hearts go?
Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas
Nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
Nobody ought to be all alone
Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas (alone on Christmas)
Nobody ought to be alone (I wanna know)
Nobody ought to be alone (Where do lonely hearts go?)
Nobody ought to be alone
Let’s get away from sleigh bells, let’s get away from snow
Let’s make a break some Christmas, Dear, I know the place to go
How’d ya like to spend Christmas on Christmas Island?
How’d ya like to spend the holiday away across the sea?
How’d ya like to spend Christmas on Christmas Island?
How’d ya like to hang a stocking on a great big coconut tree?
How’d ya like to stay up late, like the islanders do?
Wait for Santa to sail in with your presents in a canoe.
If you ever spend Christmas on Christmas Island
You will never stray for everyday
Your Christmas dreams come true.

On Christmas Island your dreams come true.
You’re a mean one
You really are a heel
You’re as cuddly as a cactus
You’re as charming as an eel
Mr. Grinch, you’re a bad banana
Mr. Grinch, with the greasy black peel
You’re a vile one
You got termites in your smile
You have all the tender sweetness
Of a seasick crocodile
Mr. Grinch
You’re a foul one
Friends you don’t have none
I wouldn’t touch you with a 39-and-a-half foot pole!
You’re a monster
Your heart’s an empty hole
You’re a goner
You got garlic in your soul
You got garlic in your soul
All them smiles homie
I turn up the frown
All them decorations
I tear em down
You can ask Max, I don’t play around
Ayo, eww
Who is this mean fellow
With his skin all green and his teeth all yellow? (Eww)
What you so mad for?
Halloween come around and we ain’t knockin’ at your door, mane
Mr. Grinch you’re a bad banana
You’re gonna spoil everybody with your bad attitude
(Spoil everybody)
Mr. Grinch
La-la-la-la
Who is this mean fellow
With his skin all green and his teeth all yellow?
(La-la-la-la)
What you so mad for?
Halloween come around and we ain’t knocking on your door
(La-la)
Bad banana
Rockin’ around the Christmas tree
At the Christmas party hop
Mistletoe hung where you can see
Every couple tries to stop
Rockin’ around the Christmas tree
Let the Christmas spirit ring
Later we’ll have some pumpkin pie
And we’ll do some caroling
You will get a sentimental feeling when you hear
Voices singing, let’s be jolly
Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Rockin’ around the Christmas tree
Have a happy holiday
Everyone dancin’ merrily
In the new old-fashioned way
