Kindness! Gladness! Christmas!

Gather up the yarn and mistletoe
Sew yourself a scarf and tie it to your clothes
I ask you from the window for a kiss
Blow one from the yard and pray it doesn't miss

Thank goodness that it's Christmas!
Be thankful, son! It's Christmas!

Joyful we throw on our winter coats
Find a place for Joseph and ceramic goats
Fashion up a golden Christmas wreath
Angels from the closet and your mother's sheets

Thank goodness that it's Christmas!
Praise the Lord! It's Christmas!

Handfuls of the fluffy ginger snow
Shoving sweetened frosting up your button nose
I will take the candy with a smile
Leaving all the green ones is so infantile

Thank goodness that it's Christmas!
The neighbors know it's Christmas!

Push me Dad, and watch where my sled goes
Keep the sleigh bells ringing on our stereo
Fix the lights and star for our fake tree
Will the presents come? Well I don't know, we'll see!

Thank goodness that it's Christmas!
Thank goodness that it's Christmas!
It's Christmas!
