I just came back from a lovely trip  Along the Milky Way  I stopped off at the North Pole  To spend a holiday  I called on dear old Santa Claus  To see what I could see.  He took me to his workshop  And told his plan to me    You better watch out,  You better not cry,  You better not pout,  I'm telling you why:  Santa Claus is coming to town!    He's making a list,  And checking it twice,  Gonna find out who's naughty or nice.  Santa Claus is coming to town!    He sees you when you're sleeping,  He knows when you're awake.  He knows if you've been bad or good,  So be good for goodness sake!    Oh! You better watch out,  You better not cry,  You better not pout,  I'm telling you why:  Santa Claus is coming to town!    He sees you when you're sleeping,  He knows when you're awake.  He knows if you've been bad or good,  So be good for goodness sake!    Oh! You better watch out,  You better not cry,  You better not pout,  I'm telling you why:  Santa Claus is coming  Santa Claus is coming  Look out Santa's coming to town!
