WE NEED A LITTLE CHRISTMAS

Haul out the holly;
Put up the tree before my spirit falls again.

 Fill up the stocking,
I may be rushing things, but deck the halls again now.

 For we need a little Christmas
Right this very minute,
Candles in the window,
Carols at the spinet.

 Yes, we need a little Christmas
Right this very minute.
It hasn't snowed a single flurry,
But Santa, dear, we're in a hurry;

 So climb down the chimney;
Put up the brightest string of lights I've ever seen.
Slice up the fruitcake;

 It's time we hung some tinsel on that evergreen bough.

 For I've grown a little leaner,

 Grown a little colder,

 Grown a little sadder,

Grown a little older,

And I need a little angel
Sitting on my shoulder,
Need a little Christmas now.
