Get Ready for Christmas

[Verse 1]
Everyone's in a hurry
To prepare for the holiday cheer
But there's no need to worry
Though the holiday is drawing near.

[Chorus]
Get ready for Christmas
As the snow is falling down
You won't want to miss this
When Santa Claus comes to town
Listen to the jingle bells everywhere you go
With everyone's faces all aglow.

[Verse 2]
Christmas eve will be here soon
And the presents are bought for all
While children sing a holiday tune
From the big to the small.

[Chorus]
Get ready for Christmas
As the snow is falling down
You won't want to miss this
When Santa Claus comes to town
Listen to the jingle bells everywhere you go
With everyone's faces all aglow.

[Verse 3]
Give the tree a trimming
A star will be placed up high.
With joy and happiness brimming
And Christmas is oh so nigh.

[Final Chorus]
Get ready for Christmas
As the snow is falling down
You won't want to miss this
When Santa Claus comes to town
Listen to the jingle bells everywhere you go
With everyone's faces all aglow.

Here goes

What Christmas Means to Me

Verse 1
A tree with lots of presents
Piled high and all around.
A feast with a big turkey,
Lots of goodies to be found.
What does Christmas mean to you?

Chorus
What does Christmas mean to you?
Is it something that can be bought?
What does Christmas mean to you?
Or is it something from the heart?

Verse 2
The love of a young child,
for parents they just found.
A sad soul who's found happiness,
and joy spread all around.
That's what Christmas means to me.

Chorus
What does Christmas mean to you?
Is it something that can be bought?
What does Christmas mean to you?
Or is it something from the heart?

A pretty, but happy, instrumental break

Repeat Chorus a final time

Verse One:
Did you hear that?
Was it our cat?
Wait no I think
Just don’t blink
Or old Saint Nick
Will be gone before you can say “mink”

Verse Two:
From house to house
Even those with a mouse
Get presents under the tree
Which fills the house with glee
Because of all of the toys
Which fills the house with joy

Verse Three:
So this year be extra good
SO you’ll get a sweater with a hood
And any toys that you ask for
And maybe you’ll get more
Remember being good gets you toys
And it fills your house with joy

Verse One:
Its that time of year
When we all spread the cheer
all the scrroges hide their faces
while at the dinner table we take our places
CHORUS:
the snow is way too deep!
Its over top my head!
But thats no reason for st. nick
to be very well fed!
leave out the milk and cookies.
its that cheerful time of year
christmas time! christmas time!
get up and spread some cheer!
Verse two
The stocking are all hung up
our pillows have been fluffed
Its time to sleep so santa

CHORUS:
the snow is way too deep!
Its over top my head!
But thats no reason for st. nick
to be very well fed!
leave out the milk and cookies.
its that cheerful time of year
christmas time! christmas time!

Verse three
The days has finally come
and I wish it were done!
Uncle fred took the family picture

CHORUS:
the snow is way too deep!
Its over top my head!
But thats no reason for st. nick
to be very well fed!
leave out the milk and cookies.

christmas time! christmas time!
get up and spread some cheer!
