lyrics
V.1.2.) I’ll be feelin’ grim, then he’ll pass a grin, that only his reindeer see. Santa, what do you have in mind. We’ll be on his sleigh, and we’ll play all day, snow will be flyin’ everywhere. Santa, what do you have in mind?
Chorus 1.) We’ll be dashing through the snow, with all the lights aglow, singing carols on our merry way. We’re sipping on champagne, riding down the lane, I help him wrap up all his gifts, he winks at me I’m on his list.
V.3.) I’m feelin’ pretty swell, don’t ask and I won’t tell, he lets me jingle all his bells. Santa, what do you have in mind?
Chorus 2.) I’ll be dancin’ with his elves, Santa’s by himself making a list of the good boys and girls. He delivers all his toys, without making too much noise, cookies made with sugar and spice, I get one because I’ve been nice.
V.4.) Christmas Eve is through, I think I’ve got a clue, now I know just what to do. Santa, what do you have in mind?
