[Intro – 2 bars instrumental]
[Light sleigh bells + bouncy holiday pop beat.
Cheeky, energetic, “busy Christmas mall” atmosphere.]
[Verse 1 – list-style, quick phrases]
I’m Santa every year.
Scooters and bikes,
teddies and dolls,
socks and shoes—
I get them all.
Red ribbon bows,
wrapping paper torn.
I can’t find the tape—
I guess Christmas is gone.
[Vocal note:
Fast, bouncy, clear. Little smile in the voice. No vibrato. Each line hits like a checklist.]
[Chorus – bigger, playful energy]
Best time of year—
Christmas shopping.
Everybody better stay clear.
I’m grabbing the totes,
the trees,
the chocolate and cheese,
the advent calendar—
that one’s for me.
[Vocal note:
Add more brightness here.
Cheeky attitude.
Lean into the humor of “cheese” and “for me.”
Stack light harmonies on “Christmas shopping.”]
⸻
[Verse 2 – optional repeat verse energy]
Hats and scarves,
new wallet for the men.
Gotta grab that new perfume—
the one that just came in.
[Vocal Note:
Match Verse 1’s bounce.
Fast, light, crisp phrasing.
Little smile in the voice.]
[Bridge – softer, sweet twist]
Wake up
Christmas morning—
everybody cheers.
So glad Santa
was able to make
this year.
Vocal note:
Softer, warmer tone here.
More heartfelt, less comedic.
Hold “morning” lightly.
Let “this year” fall gently.
[Final Chorus – big, bright, holiday ending]
Best time of year—
Christmas shopping.
Everybody better stay clear.
I’m grabbing the totes,
the trees,
the chocolate and cheese,
the advent calendar—
that one’s for me.
[Vocal note:
Full energy, double the backing harmonies.
Smile in the voice.
Lean into “for me” like a wink.]
[Outro – 1 bar, spoken or soft sung]
Guess Santa pulled it off again…
’cause Santa’s always me.
[Vocal note:
Spoken with a smirk, like a joke.]
