Fairytale of New York

The Pogues

It was Christmas Eve babe In the drunk tank An old man said to me, won't see another one And then he sang a song The Rare Old Mountain Dew I turned my face away And dreamed about you Got on a lucky one Came in at ten to one I've got a feeling This year's for me and you So Happy Christmas I love you baby I can see a better time When all our dreams come true

[Instrumental Section]

They've got cars big as bars They've got rivers of gold But the wind goes right through you It's no place for the old When you first took my hand On a cold Christmas Eve You promised me Broadway was waiting for me You were handsome You were pretty Queen of New York City When the band finished playing They howled out for more Sinatra was swinging, All the drunks they were singing We kissed on a corner Then danced through the night

5 | P a g e

Version 1

The boys of the NYPD choir Were singing "Galway Bay" And the bells were ringing out For Christmas day

You're a bum You're a punk You're an old slut on junk Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed You scumbag, you maggot You cheap lousy faggot Happy Christmas your arse I pray God it's our last The boys of the NYPD choir Were singing "Galway Bay" And the bells were ringing out For Christmas day [Instrumental Section]

[Pause]

I could have been someone Well so could anyone You took my dreams from me When I first found you I kept them with me babe I put them with my own Can't make it all alone I've built my dreams around you The boys of the NYPD choir Were singing "Galway Bay" And the bells were ringing out For Christmas day

Everything is Gonna to be Cool This Christmas

Eels

Remember last year when you were on your own You swore the spirit couldn't be found December rolled around and you were counting on it to roll out But everything’s gonna be cool this Christmas Everything’s gonna be cool this Christmas Everything's gonna be cool this Christmas

Well everybody's waiting for you down at the house The tree is looking so inspired There's a yuletide groove waiting for you to move Come on and throw another log on the fire But everything’s gonna be cool this Christmas Everything’s gonna be cool this Christmas Everything’s gonna be cool this Christmas

[Instrumental Section] Baby Jesus, born to rock As the days go by, the more that we need friends And the harder they are to find If I could have a friend like you in my life Then I guess I'd be doing just fine But everything’s gonna be cool this Christmas Everything's gonna be cool this Christmas Everything's gonna be cool this Christmas

Happy Christmas (War is Over)

John Lennon

So this is Christmas, and what have you done?

Another year over, a new one just begun.

And so this is Christmas, I hope you have fun

The near and the dear ones, the old and the young.

A merry, merry Christmas, and a happy New Year

Let’s hope it’s a good one without any fears.

And so this is Christmas, (War is over)

For weak and for strong. (If you want it)

The rich and the poor ones (War is over)

The road is so long. (Now)

And so happy Christmas, (War is over)

For black and for white. (If you want it)

For yellow and red ones, (War is over)

Let’s stop all the fights. (Now)




And what have we done? (If you want it)

Another year over, (War is over)

A new one just begun. (Now)


We hope you have fun (If you want it )

The near and the dear ones, ( War is over )

The old and the young. (Now)



War is over, if you want it. War is over, now...

War is over, if you want it. War is over, now...

Christmas Wrapping

The Waitresses

"Bah, humbug!" No, that's too strong

'Cause it is my favourite holiday

But all this year's been a busy blur

Don't think I have the energy

To add to my already mad rush

Just 'cause it's 'tis the season.

The perfect gift for me would be

Completions and connections left from

Last year, ski shop,

En counter, most interesting.

Had his number but never the time

Most of '81 passed along those lines.

So deck those halls, trim those trees

Raise up cups of Christmas cheer,

I just need to catch my breath,

Christmas by myself this year.


Calendar picture, frozen landscape,

Chilled this room for twenty-four days,

Evergreens, sparkling snow

Get this winter over with!

Flashback to springtime, saw him again,

Would've been good to go for lunch,

Couldn't agree when we were both free,

We tried, we said we'd keep in touch.

Didn't, of course, 'til summertime,

Out to the beach to his boat could I join him?

No, this time it was me,

9 | P a g e

Version 1

Sunburn in the third degree.

Now the calendar's just one page

And, of course, I am excited

Tonight's the night, but I've set my mind

Not to do too much about it.


Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!

But I think I'll miss this one this year.







Hardly dashing through the snow

‘Cause I bundled up too tight

Last minute have-to-do's

A few cards a few calls

'Cause it’s r-s-v-p

No thanks, no party lights

It's Christmas Eve, gonna relax

Turned down all of my invites.

Last fall I had a night to myself,

Same guy called, Halloween party,

Waited all night for him to show,

This time his car wouldn't go,

Forget it, it's cold, it's getting late,

Trudge on home to celebrate

In a quiet way, unwind

Doing Christmas right this time.


10 | P a g e

Version 1

A&P has provided me

With the world’s smallest turkey

Already in the oven, nice and hot

Oh damn! Guess what I forgot?

So on with the boots, back out in the snow

To the only all-night grocery,

When what to my wondering eyes should appear

In the line is that guy I've been chasing all year!

"I’m spending this one alone," he said.

"Need a break; this year's been crazy."

I said, "Me too, but why are you?

You mean you forgot cranberries too?"

Then suddenly we laughed and laughed

Caught on to what was happening

That Christmas magic's brought this tale

To a very happy ending! "

Santa Claus is Coming to Town

Gillespie & Coots

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, he’s checking it twice,

He’s gonna find out who’s naughty or nice.




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,





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, better not cry,

I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday

Roy Wood

Oh when the snowman brings the snow

Oh well he just might like to know

He’s put a great big smile up- -on somebody’s face.

If you jump into your bed,

Quickly cover up your head,

Don’t you lock your door, you know that

Sweet Santa Claus is on his way.

(CHORUS)

Oh well I wish it could be Christmas every day.

When the kids start singing and the band begins to play.

Oh I wish it could be Christmas every day

So let the bells ring out for Christmas!

When we’re skating in the park,

If the storm cloud paints it dark

Then your rosy cheeks gonna light my merry way.

Now the ‘frosticals’ appeared

And they’ve frozen up my beard,

So we’ll lie by the fire till the

Sleep simply melts them all away.

(CHORUS)

Version 1

When the snowman brings the snow

Oh well he just might like to know

So if Santa brings the sleigh

All along that Milky Way,

I’ll sign my name on the rooftop in the

Snow then he may decide to stay.

(CHORUS)





Why don’t you give your love for Christmas?

When the snowman brings the snow… (repeat to fade )

Last Christmas

George Michael

Last Christmas I gave you my heart,

But the very next day you gave it away,

This year to save me from tears,

I'll give it to someone special.

Last Christmas I gave you my heart,

But the very next day you gave it away,

This year to save me from tears,

I’ll give it to someone special.

Once bitten and twice shy, I keep my distance, but you still catch my eye, Tell me baby, do you recognize me? Well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me. (Happy Christmas) I wrapped it up and sent it, With a note saying, "I love you" , I meant it, Now I know what a fool I've been, But if you kissed me now, I know you'd fool me again.

Last Christmas I gave you my heart, But the very next day you gave it away, This year to save me from tears, I’ll give it to someone special. Last Christmas I gave you my heart, But the very next day you gave it away, This year to save me from tears, I'll give it to someone special.

A crowded room, friends with tired eyes, I’m hiding from you, and your soul of ice, My god, I thought you were someone to rely on, Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on. A face on a lover with a fire in his heart, A man under cover but you tore me apart, Oh, oh Now I’ve found a real love you’ll never fool me again.

Last Christmas I gave you my heart, But the very next day you gave it away, This year to save me from tears, I'll give it to someone special. Last Christmas I gave you my heart, But the very next day you gave it away, This year to save me from tears, I'll give it to someone special.

Stop the Cavalry

Jona Lewie

Hey Mister Churchill comes over here

To say we’re doing splendidly,

But it’s very cold out here in the snow

Marching to and from the enemy.

Oh I say it’s tough, I have had enough

Can you stop the cavalry?

Da da da da da, da da da da da,

da da da da da, da da daaa

Da da da da da, da da da da da



Da da da da daa da daaa

I have had to fight almost every night

Down throughout the centuries,

That is when I say oh yes, yet again,

Can you stop the cavalry?

Mary proudly waits at home

In the nuclear fallout zone

Wish I could be dancing now,

In the arms of the girl I love.

Du bu du bu dum dum, du bu du bu dum

Da da da da da, da da da da da



Da da da da daa da daaa






Wish I could be dancing now,

In the arms of the girl I love.

Mary proudly waits at home

She’s been waiting two years long

I Believe in Father Christmas

Greg Lake

They said there'll be snow at Christmas They said there'll be peace on earth But instead it just kept on raining A veil of tears for the virgin birth I remember one Christmas morning A winters light and a distant choir And the peal of a bell and that Christmas tree smell And their eyes full of tinsel and fire [Instrumental Section]

They sold me a dream of Christmas They sold me a silent night And they told me a fairy story 'till I believed in the Israelite And I believed in Father Christmas And I looked at the sky with excited eyes ‘till I woke with a yawn in the first light of dawn And I saw him and through his disguise I wish you a hopeful Christmas I wish you a brave new year All anguish pain and sadness Leave your heart and let your road be clear They said there’ll be snow at Christmas They said there’ll be peace on earth Hallelujah noel be it heaven or hell The Christmas we get you deserve

Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer & Jingle Bells Traditional

Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer

Had a very shiny nose,

And if you ever saw it,

You would even say it glows.

All of the other reindeer

Used to laugh and call him names

They never let poor Rudolph

Join in any reindeer games.

Then one foggy Christmas Eve

Santa came to say,

“Rudolph with your nose so bright,

Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?”

Then all the reindeer loved him

And they shouted out with glee,

“Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,

You'll go down in history! “

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way,

Oh, what fun it is to ride

In a one-horse open sleigh, hey!



In a one-horse open sleigh.

We’re Dashing through the snow

In a one-horse open sleigh,

Across the fields we go,

Laughing all the way.

Bells on bobtails ring,

Making spirits bright,

What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing

song tonight.



In a one-horse open sleigh, hey!



In a one-horse open sleigh.

That Was The Worst Christmas Ever

Sufjan Stevens

Going outside, shoveling snow in the driveway, driveway Taking our shoes, riding a sled down the hillside, hillside Can you say what you want, can you say what you want to be Can you be what you want, can you be what you want Our father yells, throwing the gifts in the woodstove, woodstove My sister runs away, taking her books to the schoolyard, schoolyard In time the snow will rise, in time the snow will rise In time the Lord will rise, in time the Lord will rise Silent night, holy night Silent night, nothing feels right

Deck the halls with boughs of holly, Fa la la la laa la la la la. Tis the season to be jolly, Fa la la la laa la la la la.

Don we now our gay apparel, Fa la la, la la la, la la la. Troll the ancient Yule tide carol, Fa la la la laa la la la la.

See the blazing Yule before us, Fa la la la laa la la la la. Strike the harp and join the chorus. Fa la la la laa la la la la.

Follow me in merry measure, Fa la la, la la la, la la la. While I tell of Yule tide treasure, Fa la la la laa la la la la.

Fast away the old year passes, Fa la la la laa la la la la. Hail the new, ye lads and lasses, Fa la la la laa la la la la.

Sing we joyous, all together, Fa la la, la la la, la la la. Heedless of the wind and weather, Fa la la la laa la la la la.

Let it Snow

Sammy Cahn

Oh, the weather outside is frightful,

But the fire is so delightful,

And since we've no place to go,

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

It doesn’t show signs of stopping,

And I brought some corn for popping.

The lights are turned way down low,


When we finally kiss good night,

How I'll hate going out in the storm.

But if you really hold me tight,

All the way home I'll be warm.

The fire is slowly dying,

And, my dear, we're still good-bye-ing,

But as long as you love me so.

Lonely This Christmas

Mud

Try to imagine a house that’s not a home

And try to imagine a Christmas all alone

That’s where I'll be since you left me

My tears could melt the snow

What can I do? Without you

I’ve got no place to go

It'll be lonely this Christmas without you to hold

It'll be lonely this Christmas lonely and cold

It’ll be cold so cold without you to hold this Christmas

Each time I remember the day you went away

How I never listened to the things you had to say

I just break down, when I look around

The only things I see

Are emptiness and loneliness and a humbling Christmas tree

It'll be lonely this Christmas without you to hold

It'll be lonely this Christmas lonely and cold

It’ll be cold so cold without you to hold this Christmas

Frosty the Snowman

Walter "Jack" Rollins and Steve Nelson

Frosty the Snow Man was a jolly happy soul

With a corn-cob pipe and a button nose

And two eyes made out of coal

Frosty the Snow Man is a fairy tale they say

He was made of snow but the children know

How he came to life one day

There must have been some magic in that

Old silk hat they found

For when they put it on his head

He began to dance around oh

Frosty the Snow Man as alive as he could be

And the children say he could laugh and play

Just the same as you and me

Frosty the Snow Man

Knew the sun was hot that day

So he said let's run and we'll have some fun

Before I melt away

Down to the village with a broomstick in his hand

Running here and there all around the square

Saying catch me if you can

He led them down the streets of town right

To the traffic cop

And he only paused a moment

When he heard him holler stop

Frosty the Snow Man had to hurry on his way

But he waved goodbye saying don't you cry

I'll be back again someday I'll be back again some day

Walking in a Winter Wonderland

Dean Martin

Sleigh bells ring are you listening In the lane snow is glistening A beautiful sight we're happy to night Walking in a winter wonderland

Gone away is the bluebird Here to stay is a new bird He sings a love song As we go along Walking in a winter wonderland

In the meadow we can build a snowman Then pretend that he is Parson Brown

He'll say are you married we'll say no man But you can do the job when you're in town

Later on we'll conspire As we dream by the fire To face unafraid The plans that we've made Walking in a winter wonderland

In the meadow we can build a snowman Then pretend that he is Parson Brown

He'll say are you married we'll say no man But you can do the job when you're in town

When it snows ain't it thrilling Though your nose gets a chilling We'll frolic and play the Eskimo way Walking in a winter wonderland

Mary’s Boy Child Boney M

Long time ago in Bethlehem so the Holy Bible say Mary's boy child Jesus Christ Was born on Christmas Day

Hark now hear the angels sing A king was born today And man will live for evermore Because of Christmas day Mary's boy child Jesus Christ Was born on Christmas Day

While shepherds watch their flock by night They see a bright new shining star They hear a choir sing a song The music seemed to come from a far

Hark now hear the angels sing A king was born today And man will live for evermore Because of Christmas day

Now Joseph and his wife Mary came to Bethlehem that night They found no place to bear the child Not a single room was in sight

And then they found a little nook in a stable all forlorn And in a manger cold and dark Mary’s little boy was born

Hark now hear the angels sing A king was born today And man will live for evermore Because of Christmas day Mary's boy child Jesus Christ Was born on Christmas Day

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas Just like the ones I used to know Where the tree-tops glisten And children listen to hear sleigh-bells in the snow

Mistletoe & Wine Cliff Richard

Intro: [Instrumental Section]

The child is a king, the carollers sing, the old has passed, there’s a new beginning. Dreams of Santa, dreams of snow, fingers numb, faces aglow.

Christmas time, mistletoe and wine, children singing Christian rhyme. With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree, a time to rejoice in the good that we see.

A time for living, a time for believing, a time for trusting, not deceiving. Love and laughter and joy ever after, ours for the taking, just follow the master.


[Instrumental Section] It’s a time for giving, a time for getting, a time for forgiving and for forgetting. Christmas is love, Christmas is peace, a time for hating and fighting to cease.

Said Santa to a girl child, "What'd please you most to get?" "A little baby doll that could cry, sleep, drink and wet" Then away went Rudolph, whizzin' like a Sabre jet


Said Santa to a boy child, "What have you been longing for?" "Well all I want for Christmas is a rock'n'roll electric guitar" Then away went Rudoph, whizzin' like a shooting star

Na Na Na Na Na Na Na

A ray of hope flickers in the sky, A tiny star lights up way up high, All across the land dawns a brand new morn, This comes to pass when a child is born.

A silent wish sails the seven seas,

The winds of change whisper in the trees

All the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn,

This comes to pass when a child is born.

A rosy dawn settles all around,

You get the feel you’re on solid ground

For a spell or two no-one seems forlorn,


It’s all a dream, an illusion now,

It must come true sometime soon somehow.

All across the land dawns a brand new morn,

Merry Christmas Everyone

Shakin’ Stevens


Snow is falling all around me

Children playing , having fun.

It's the season of love and under- -standing,

Merry Christmas everyone!

Time for parties and celeb--ration

People dancing all night long

Time for presents and ex changing kisses

Time for singing Christmas songs.

We're gonna have a party tonight,

I'm gonna find that girl,

Underneath the misteltoe, and kiss by candlelight .

Room is swaying, records playing

All the old songs, love to hear.

Oh I wish that every day was Christmas

What a nice way to spend a year.


We're gonna have a party tonight,

I'm gonna find that girl,

Underneath the misteltoe, and kiss by candlelight

Ooo, snow is falling all around me

Children playing, having fun.

It's the season love and under- -standing,

Do They Know it’s Christmas?

Band Aid

It's Christmas time, there’s no need to be afraid.

At Christmas time, we let in light and we banish shade.

And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy,

Throw your arms around the world at Christmas time.

But say a prayer; pray for the other ones,

At Christmas time, it's hard, but when you're having fun

There's a world outside your window,

And it's a world of dread and fear,

Where the only water flowing is

The bitter sting of tears.

And the Christmas bells that ring there

Are the clanging chimes of doom.

Well, tonight thank God it’s them, instead of you.

And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time.

The greatest gift they’ll get this year is life. Oh Oh Oh

Where nothing ever grows, no rain nor rivers flow,

Do they know it’s Christmas time at all?


Here’s to you; Raise a glass for everyone.

Here’s to them; Underneath that burning sun

Do they know it’s Christmas time at all?

Feed the world!

Feed the world!

Feed the world!

Let them know it’s Christmas time again

Feed the world!


Feed the world!

Blue Christmas Elvis Preseley

I'll have a blue Christmas without you,

I'll be so blue just thinking about you.

Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree,

Won't be the same dear, if you’re not here with me.

And when those blue snowflakes start fallin’,

That’s when those blue memories start callin’

You’ll be doin’ all right with your Christmas of white

But I’ll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas.

Mmm mm mm mm Mmm mm mm mm



Mmm mm mm mm mm mm

You’ll be doing’ all right with your Christmas of white

But I’ll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas.

Another Rock and Roll Christmas

Gary Glitter

(Christmas). (Christmas).

Light the lights, ring the chimes, come on in; it's party time. Raise a glass for auld lang syne, come on, rock it up for all mankind. It’s good to see friends I know, kissing under the mistletoe. I love to hear the children sing, it looks like Santa's gonna bring...

Another Rock 'N' Roll Christmas, another Christmas Rock 'N' Roll. Presents hanging from the tree, you'll never guess what you've got from me! Another Rock 'N' Roll Christmas, another Christmas Rock 'N' Roll. We better hold each other tight; you never know, it might snow tonight.

Guys and girls, stay up late, so excited they can't wait. Let there be peace on Earth; come on, Rock 'N' Roll for all your worth. We're gonna laugh, we're gonna sing, we're gonna make the rafters ring. I'll pull my cracker, let me be, the Silver Star upon your tree.

Another Rock 'N' Roll Christmas, another Christmas Rock 'N' Roll. All dressed up, so here we go, do I hear sleigh bells in the snow? Another Rock 'N' Roll Christmas, another Christmas Rock 'N' Roll. To-night old Santa never, ever stops; he bops above the chimney tops.

You'll be rocking, in your stocking, When you see your big su-prise. 'Cos I'll be rocking, in your stocking, You won't believe your big blue eyes

Come on in and join the fun; it's Christmas time for everyone. May your days be merry and bright, ‘Cos there ain't gonna be no silent night! See the stars, dance and ring, soon they're gonna see the New Year in. No-one's looking, kiss me quick; come on, Rock 'N' Roll for old Saint Nick.
