I'M GETTIN' NUTTIN' FOR CHRISTMAS

     Oh, I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas,
     Mommy and Daddy are mad. 
     I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas 
     'Cause I ain't been nuttin' but bad.

I broke my bat on Johnny's head; Somebody snitched on me. 
I hid a frog in sister's bed; Somebody snitched on me. 
I spilled some ink on Mommy's rug; I made Tommy eat a bug; 
Bought some gum with a penny slug; Somebody snitched on me. 

     Oh, I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas...

I put a tack on teacher's chair; Somebody snitched on me.
I tied a knot in Susie's hair; Somebody snitched on me.
I did a dance on Mommy's plants; climbed a tree and tore my pants;
Filled that sugar bowl with ants; Somebody snitched on me.

     Oh, I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas...

I won't be seeing Santa Claus; Somebody snitched on me. 
He won't come visit me because Somebody snitched on me. 
Next year I'll be going straight; Next year I'll be good, just wait;
I'd start now, but it's too late; Somebody snitched on me. 

     Oh, I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas...

So you better be good whatever you do, 
'Cause if you're bad, I'm warning you, 
     You'll get nuttin' for Christmas.
