We Need a Little Christmas

One, two, three, four

Haul out the holly
Put up the tree before my spirit falls again
Fill up the stocking
I may be rushing things, but
Deck the halls again now (now)

For we need a little Christmas, right this very minute
Candles in the window, carols at the spinet
Yes, we need a little Christmas, right this very minute
It hasn't snowed a single flurry, Santa, dear, we're in a hurry

Climb down the chimney
Turn on the brightest string of lights I've ever seen
Slice up the fruitcake
It's time we hung some tinsel
On that evergreen bough (bough)

For I've grown a little leaner, grown a little colder
Grown a little sadder, grown a little older
And I need a little angel sitting on my shoulder
Need a little Christmas now

For we need a little music (need a little music)
Need a little laughter (need a little laughter)
Need a little singing (need a little singing)
Ringing through the rafter (ringing through the rafter)
And we need a little snappy (need a little snappy)
Happy ever after (happy ever after)
Need a little Christmas now
