Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I just came back from a lovely trip along the milky way
I stopped off at the north pole to spend a holiday
I called on dear old Santa Claus to see what I could see
He took me to his workshop and told his plan to me
[Verse 2]
You better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
[Verse 3]
He's makin' a list and checkin' it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is coming to town
[Verse 4]
He sees you when you're sleepin'
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
[Verse 5]
Oh, you better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
[Verse 6]
He sees you when you're sleepin'
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
[Verse 7]
Oh, you better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is comin'
Santa Claus is comin'
Look out, Santa's comin' to town
