[Intro] G Out on the third planet closest to the sun Am C There’s a special celebration Am C And it sounds quite fun G A jolly old fellow brings toys to everyone Am C G On a holiday they call Christmas Am Now I’m not gonna lie it makes no sense to me C But here’s what earthlings told me A# A About this Christmas mystery N.C. One, two, three, four! [Verse] D Santa is a furry freak Bm With epic superpowers D He flies to every human home Bm In under 14 hours Em A He’s a master burglar Em A A pro at picking locks Em If you don’t leave milk and A cookies out A# A He will put dung in your socks [Verse] D If you act nicely through the night Bm And don’t jump on your bed D Santa comes with sugar plums Bm And hurls them at your head Em A But if you’re on his naughty list Em A He shoots missiles at your toes Em A He might just roast your chestnuts A# A With his powerful flamethrow-er [Chorus] Bm Bm Bm Bm F#m Rein, rein, rein, rein, rein G G G G D Deer, deer, deer, deer, deer Bm F#m I don’t know what Christmas is G D But Christmastime is here [Verse] D He’s compelled his creepy elves Bm To do his every wish D One sought to be a dentist now Bm He’s sleeping with the fish Em A Mrs. Claus, she works the pole Bm A Plans her man’s demise Em A Soon the elves will all rise up A# A And stab out Santa’s eyes [Chorus] Bm Bm Bm Bm F#m Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho G G G G D Earthlings are so weird Bm F#m I don’t know what Christmas is G D But Christmastime is here [Chorus] Bm Bm Bm Bm F#m Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho G G G G D Earthlings are so weird Bm F#m I don’t know what Christmas is G D But Christmastime is here [Outro] Bm F#m What the heck’s a turtledove? G D And who lit up that deer? Bm F#m I don’t know what Christmas is G D But Christmastime is here Bm F#m I don’t know what Christmas is G D But Christmastime is here D Or maybe it’s there D Or it’s somewhere D I don’t know
