Chorus Lyrics and Recordings
First Flakes
Like a silent movie show
Winter makes an entrance
Floating on the soft snow
And we watch in quiet awe,
Asking one another, “Did you just see what I saw?”
First flakes have finally come to town,
And I love to see them twirling swirling
First flakes are floating fluttering down,
And I love to see them curling whirling
Round, round, down, down-down
There’s confetti all around,
Covering up the roof-tops
Dressing up the bare ground
By the time we are awake
Everything is covered in miles and piles of snowflakes!
First flakes have finally come to town,
And I love to see them twirling swirling
First flakes are floating fluttering down,
And I love to see them curling whirling
Round, round, down, down-down
I love the hush that winter brings
To mountains and to cities
No matter where they come to rest,
Snowflakes are so pretty
First flakes have finally come to town,
And I love to see them twirling swirling
First flakes are floating fluttering down,
And I love to see them curling whirling
Down, down, down, down
Round and round and round
FIRST FLAKES!!
Hot Chocolate
Sssss
HOT!
Hot, hot, hot, hot chocolate
I can’t get enough
Hot, hot, hot, hot, chocolate
It’s my favorite stuff!
When the weather is freezing
And you think you’ll turn to ice.
There is nothing more pleasing
Than a mug of paradise.
Turn up the heat, make it steamy and sweet,
With marshmallows on the top
Come fill me up to the top of my cup,
I’m gonna drink every drop!
Hot, hot, hot, hot chocolate
I can’t get enough
Hot, hot, hot, hot, chocolate
It’s my favorite stuff!
Hot….hot chocolate
Hot….hot chocolate
Hot…hot chocolate
(Sss…Make it steamy)
Hot…hot chocolate
(Sss…Rich and creamy)
Hot…hot chocolate
(Sss…Make it steamy)
Hot…hot chocolate
(Sss…Rich and creamy)
Turn up the heat, make it steamy and sweet,
With marshmallows on the top
Come fill me up to the top of my cup,
I’m gonna drink every drop!
Hot, hot, hot, hot chocolate
I can’t get enough
Hot, hot, hot, hot, chocolate
It’s my favorite stuff!
I can’t get enough!
I need a fix made from scratch or a mix
Hot chocolate
HOT!!

Carol of the Bells
Hark! How the bells,
Sweet silver bells,
All see to say, "Throw cares away"
Christmas is here, bringing good cheer
To young and old, meek and the bold
Ding, dong, ding, dong
That is their song, with joyful ring
All caroling
One seems to hear words of good cheer
From everywhere filling in the air
O how they pound, rasiing the sound
O'er hill and dale, telling their tale
Loudly they ring, while people sing
Songs of good cheer, Christmas is here
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas
On, on they send, on without end
Their joyful tone, to every home
Hark! How the bells,
Sweet silver bells,
All see to say, "Throw cares away"
Christmas is here, bringing good cheer
To young and old, meek and the bold
Ding, dong, ding, dong
That is their song, with joyful ring
All caroling
One seems to hear words of good cheer
From everywhere filling in the air
O how they pound, rasiing the sound
O'er hill and dale, telling their tale
Loudly they ring, while people sing
Songs of good cheer, Christmas is here
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas
On, on they send, on without end
Their joyful tone, to every home
Ding, dong, ding, dong
The Night Before Christmas
‘Twas the night before Christmas when all through the house,
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse
All the stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that Saint Nicholas soon would be there.
The moon on the back of the new fallen snow,
(The new fallen snow)
Gave a luster of midday to objects below
When what to my wondering eyes should appear
(My eyes should appear)
But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer.
Up on the house-top reindeer pause
Out jumps good old Santa Claus.
Down through the chimney with lots of toys,
All for the little ones’ Christmas joys
He was dressed all in fur from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot.
A bundle of toys he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack.
Jolly old Saint Nicholas,
Lean your ear this way
Don’t you tell a single soul
What I’m going to say
Christmas Eve has come at last,
Now you dear old man,
Whisper what you’ve brought for me.
Tell me if you can.
He spoke not a word but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings the turned with a jerk.
And I heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight,
“Merry Christmas to all,
(Merry Christmas to all)
“Merry Christmas to all,
(Merry Christmas to all)
“Merry Christmas to all, and to all a goodnight!”
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Santa Claus Boogie
Who’s that up there in the sky?
Hey, that’s Santa flying by!
Rudy and the reindeer by his side,
Doing the Santa Claus Boogie!
Laughing, singing, all the way
On this happy holiday!
It’s not work, hey it’s all play
Doing the Santa Claus Boogie!
You can trust the man in red.
He’ll do everything he said.
Sleigh’s all loaded and the work is done.
Time to fly and have some fun.
Now, look up quick or they’ll be gone.
They’ve been waiting all year long.
In the sky’s where they belong
Doing the Santa Claus Boogie!
Santa Claus Boogie!
Santa Claus Boogie!
Santa Claus Boogie!
Boogie woogie woogie all night long!
Santa Claus Boogie!
Santa Claus Boogie!
Santa Claus Boogie!
Boogie woogie woogie till the break of dawn!
You can trust the man in red.
He’ll do everything he said.
Sleigh’s all loaded and the work is done.
Time to fly and have some fun.
Now, look up quick or they’ll be gone.
They’ve been waiting all year long.
In the sky’s where they belong
Doing the Santa Claus Boogie!
And it’s up, up and away
Up there in the Milky Way
Doing the Santa Claus,
Santa Claus Boogie Woogie!
Boogie Woogie!
Boogie Woogie Woogie
All night long!
