The sky is well-lighted with bright stars The streets are littered with shiny cars The motorists are playing Xmas carols The children are excited ‘cause Mr. Claus Papa Noel is coming in person tonight To bring toys to boys who did not fight This year and gifts to girls and gals Who have been good all year long Let's sing along, let's sing...
