Christmas Joys:
Speeding down the hill
On a sled of Christmas Joys
Over the snow of Peace
Wrapping Christmas Joys...Snip, Snip, Snip
Brightness in the air
With songs of Christmas Love
How fun it is to wrap & sing
All these Christmas Joys.
OH....snip, snip, wrap, snip, snip, wrap
Shipping all the way
OH what peaceful time it is to laugh & sing our Joys.
HEY! snip, tape, wrap, snip, tape, wrap, taping all the way.
We hope you had such fun singing this great song today....

So let's make noise singing Christmas Joys!

Madeline, 9, Apple Valley, MN


The stores are totally full,
everything's a mess,
we don't know what to get this year,
we're in a lot of stress,
OH
Our budget isn't high,
we're trying to be sly,
we've been searching low and high,
but we don't know what to buy,
OH
Shopping Sprees, Shopping Sprees,
us three love to shop,
parking lots are full this year,
and we don't know what's in stock.
(repeat)(second time through HEY at the end!!)

Oh Jingle bells Jingle bells Santa's on his way,
Its Christmas eve and its no time to play he!

Oh Jingle bells Jingle bells Santa's on his way
I think its time, he's on the roof and I want all the toys, today!

Oh! Dashing down the stairs with only one fuzzy slipper,
I flipped the switch for the net but it turned on the fire

Oh! Jingle bells Jingle bells
Santa lies right here, He looks really funny now he has no beard
Oh! Jingle bells Jingle bells
Santa now is dead I picked out his coffin and reindeer skin made the bed.

Oh! Jingle bells Jingle bells Santa now is dead,
my dad is really happy he got Rudolph's head.

Oh! dashing down the stairs only one fuzzy slipper,
My sisters gonna get me I killed her favorite reindeer.

New years day, New years day,
what is there to say,
staying up till twelve 0 clock,
and listening to rock!

New years day, New years Day,
Valentines a shame,
people break your heart on way,
with nothing else to say.

Cry, cry, cry
Bye, bye, bye,
my boyfriend broke my heart,
now to find another one 'cause now we are apart.

who, who, who,
who should it be next,
should it be the neighbors brother cause he has good packs?

New years day, New years day,
what is there to say,
staying up to twelve 0 clock,
and listening to rock.

Valentines, Valentines,
is there a different way,
to say I love you on this very special day hey!

Sara, 9, Woodbury, MN


Whining, crying kids,
Toy stores are jam packed,
Parents flipping lids,
Buying bad knick knacks.
Voices of kids ring,
Asking for more toys,
Snowballs tend to sting
When flung by girls and boys.
OH!

Dreary days, dreary days,
Holidays are crumbs,
So much indigestion that you'll have to take a Tums,
Barbie Doll, Hot Wheel car,
Getting out of bed,
But you find,
All the time,
That you get clothes instead, HEY!

Christmas time is done,
Tummies all are stuffed,
You're not having fun,
Pillows made of fluff,
Wrapping paper mess,
So sick that you cough,
Cat's ripped up your dress
And is messing up you coif.
OH!

Dreary days, Dreary days,
Holidays are crumbs,
So much indigestion that you'll have to take a Tums,
Barbie Doll, Hot Wheel car,
Getting out of bed,
But you find,
All the time,
You get clothes instead, HEY!

Will, 12, Oakdale, MN


Sk-a-ting Sk-a-ting
Skating all the day,
So that we can score a goal and go-o all the way-a,

Checking Checking
Checking ' till they bleed
We put all the cookies out so Santa Claus could fe-ed,

Splashing threw the slush
In my busted plastic sled
Sprayin' mush in my face
I think I'm almost dead

Getting a cold rush
Screaming from the cold
My brother saying shush
This whole things getting old
Ha-ha-ha,

I think I'm almost dead the snow is turning red
I think I'll spend my Christmas Eve in a hospital be-ed

Santa Claus Santa Claus
Getting very fat,
Timmy Tool goes to school and he wants a new ba-at

Alex, 12, Woodbury, MN


Hit and run,
Hit and run,

In his car he has a bar,
Man his traveled far.
Oh,

Homer ran over his toe,
In his bar,
Homer laid tar,
And Barney ate Homer's car.

Robert & Nick, 11, Woodbury, MN


Dashing through the room
and a one shoe open day,
down the stairs we go, my mom just broke my door
"Oh get back!" here said my mom
she is going to hurt me
I said "No!" to my Mom
I ate 4 brownies
get back here get back here!
No! No! No! No! NO!
Get back here! Get back here!
Warning do not try at home!

Did you know: My cousin Jake ate 4 brownies and my Aunt Shelly found out
and my Jake cousin slammed the door on her and she ran through it and it fell down.

Andrew, 11, Woodbury, MN
