You better watch out, better not cry

better not pout, I'm tellin' you why

Santa Claus is comin' to town!



He's makin' a list an' checkin' it twice

gonna find out who's naughty or nice

Santa Claus is comin' to town!



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!



So, you better watch out, you better not cry

better not pout, I'm tellin' you why

Santa Claus is comin' to town!



Say Perry,

somebody's ringin' the front doorbell,

shall I answer it?

Oh tell em to go away Helen

we've got to decorate this Christmas tree!

Where do I connect the lights Perry?

Artie, all you have to do is put the thing in a plug!

Say Perry, I can't find a train switch,

know where it is?

Bobby, the train switch is always

where it's always been!

Hey Perry, what do ya want for Christmas?

Now wait a minute, where are you going?

Oh I'm going out to give a few haircuts,

you kids go ahead and sing

I'll be right back!



You better watch out, better not cry

better not pout, I'm tellin' you why

Oh! Santa Claus is comin' to town!



He's makin' a list an' checkin' it twice

gonna find out who's naughty an' nice

Santa Claus is comin' to town!



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!



So, you better watch out, you better not cry

better not pout, I'm tellin' you why

Santa Claus is comin' to town!
