You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus [bad word] to town

He's making a list
He's checking it twice;
He's gonna find out
Who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus [bad word] to town

He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows when you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake!

You better watch out!
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus [bad word] to town

You better watch out!
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus [bad word] to town

He's making a list
And checking it twice;
He's gonna find out
Who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus [bad word] to town

He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows when you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake!

You better watch out!
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus [bad word] to town
