I just came back from a lovely trip Along the Milky Way I stopped off at the North Pole To spend a holiday I called on dear old Santa Claus To see what I could see. He took me to his workshop And told his plan to me You better watch out, You better not cry, You better not pout, I'm telling you why: Santa Claus is coming to town! He's making a list, And checking it twice, Gonna find out who's naughty or nice. Santa Claus is coming to town! He sees you when you're sleeping, He knows when you're awake. He knows if you've been bad or good, So be good for goodness sake! Oh! You better watch out, You better not cry, You better not pout, I'm telling you why: Santa Claus is coming to town! He sees you when you're sleeping, He knows when you're awake. He knows if you've been bad or good, So be good for goodness sake! Oh! You better watch out, You better not cry, You better not pout, I'm telling you why: Santa Claus is coming Santa Claus is coming Look out Santa's coming to town!
