MUST BE CHRISTMAS

RUSHING AROUND AT THE SHOPPING MALL.
GOTTA FIND SOMETHING FOR ONE AND ALL.
BOYS AND GIRLS FILLED WITH LAUGHTER.
SANTA'S GONNA ARRIVE IN A HELICOPTER.

MUST BE CHRISTMAS. NO BETTER TIME, THE WHOLE YEAR.
MUST BE CHRISTMAS. WISHIN' THAT MORNING WAS ALREADY HERE.

STRAIGHTEN MY TIE. THE PARTY'S LATE.
SEEMS WE'RE DANCING DECEMBER AWAY.
EVERYBODY'S HUGGIN' AND KISS-MAS CHRISSIN',
TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT WE'RE HEAVENLY WISHIN'.

MUST BE CHRISTMAS. NO BETTER TIME, THE WHOLE YEAR.
MUST BE CHRISTMAS. WISHIN' THAT MORNING WAS ALREADY HERE.

THERE'S A CHILL IN THE AIR. BUT WE DON'T CARE.
WE'RE TOGETHER. WE'VE GOT OUR LOVE TO KEEP US WARM.

(very "now sounding" (for back then) synthesizer solo)

WENT THROUGH A WEEK OF LAST MINUTE DETAILS.
ASSEMBLED ALL THE TOYS WITH THEIR ALKALINE CELLS.
WE FINALLY RELAX ON THIS HECTIC NIGHT,
WITH MIDNIGHT MASS VIA SATELLITE.

MUST BE CHRISTMAS. NO BETTER TIME, THE WHOLE YEAR.
MUST BE CHRISTMAS. WISHIN' THAT MORNING WAS ALREADY HERE.

ROLLING AND TUMBLING IN THE WATERBED,
VISIONS OF COMPUTER GAMES IN MY HEAD.
STRUGGLING IN VAIN TO TRY TO GET TO SLEEP,
I WONDER WHAT'S UNDER THAT SHINY CHROME TREE.

MUST BE CHRISTMAS. NO BETTER TIME, THE WHOLE YEAR.
MUST BE CHRISTMAS. WISHIN' THAT MORNING WAS ALREADY HERE.

THERE'S A CHILL IN THE AIR. BUT WE DON'T CARE.
WE'RE TOGETHER. WE'VE GOT OUR LOVE TO KEEP US WARM.

MUST BE CHRISTMAS. NO BETTER TIME, THE WHOLE YEAR.
MUST BE CHRISTMAS. WISHIN' THAT MORNING WAS ALREADY HERE.

MUST BE CHRISTMAS. NO BETTER TIME, THE WHOLE DAMN YEAR.
MUST BE CHRISTMAS. WISHIN' THAT MORNING WAS ALREADY HERE.
