out the holly but on the tree

before my spirit falls again

fill up the stocking i may be rushing things

but deck the halls again now

for we need a little christmas right this very moment

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

but santa dear we're in a hurry

so climb down the chimney

turn on the brightest string of lights i've ever seen

slice up the fruit cake

it's time we hung some tinsel on that evergreen 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 laughter

need a little singing ringing through the rafter

and we need a little snappy

happy ever after

need a little christmas now
