Christmas Time is Here
Time after time the seasons pass us by
the snow is falling, the kids all stare outside.
The smell of cookies, the breeze against our face
all the presents under the trees with names
(Sledding faster than a car on the freeway)
This year you could help somebody, just 'cause you can
Reach out to hold somebody, to lend them a hand
Christmas time is not too far away
A joyful time for you to give not take
Every time I hear those sleigh bells ring, I know that it's gonna be a happy holiday
Christmas time is here
There's a snowball fight out in the yard
And a two foot stack of Christmas cards
But it's not about the shiny things
It's that we all still have time to change.
This year you could help somebody, just 'cause you can
Reach out to hold somebody, to lend them a hand
Christmas time is not too far away
A joyful time for you to give not take
Everytime I hear those sleigh bells ring, I know that it's gonna be a happy holiday
Christmas time is here
Solo
Christmas time is not too far away
A joyful time for you to give not take
Everytime I hear those sleigh bells ring, I know that it's gonna be a happy holiday
Christmas time is here

Jingle Bell Bling (Parody of "Hotline Bling" by Drake)
You used to believe in
You used to, you used to
Ho
You used to believe in me
Late night when you need my elves
Sending me those letters
Late night when you need my elves
And I know when those jingles ring
That can only mean one thing
I know when those jingles ring
That can only mean one thing
Ever since you stopped believing
You got a reputation on the naughty list
Everybody knows even Mrs. Claus
Girl you got me less stressed out
Ever since I left the North Pole
I started eating less and working more
Glasses of milk out on the mantle
Hanging with some elves I've never seen before
I know when those jingles ring
Late night when you need my elves
Sending me those letters
Late night when you need my elves
I know when those jingles ring
That can only mean one thing
Ever since you stopped believing. ho, ho, ho
You and me we just don't get along
You made me feel like I did the naughty list wrong
Going places where I now belong
Ever since you stopped believing
You, you didn't get exactly what you asked for
Hanging with some elves I've never seen before
You used to believe in me
Late night when you need my elves
Sending me those letters
Late night when you need my elves
I know when those jingles ring
That can only mean one thing
I know when those jingles ring
That can only mean one thing
These days, all I do is
Wonder if you believing in someone else
Wonder if you telling I'm not real to someone else
Doing things I didn't teach you, gettin' presents for someone else
I don't need your Christmas list
Used to always stay at home, be a good child
You was in the zone, yeah
You should just be good
Right now, you're not yourself
You used to believe in me
Late night when you need my elves
Sending me those letters
Late night when you need my elves
I know when those jingles ring
That can only mean one thing
I know when those jingles ring
That can only mean one thing
Ever since you stopped believing
