Lyrics

Oh Golly, Lookie

Hey Mama, lookie
Santa ate all the cookies
And he drank all the hot chocolate
But I don’t think he’s finished yet
‘cause there’s no present under the tree
(well, at least not for me)

Oh, Mama, lookie
My little brother got a Wookie
And my sis got a soccer ball
But there’s nothing here for me at all
Nothing that I can see
Well now, how can that be?

Well, Papa,
I know I haven’t been too good
But I thought Santa understood
I’d be better next year
Maybe he didn’t get my letter
At least that’s what I fear

Bridge
I’ll do the dishes
I’ll clean my room
I’ll take the trash out
I’ll get the broom
I really mean it
So don’t assume
Just like the Grinch my budding goodness finally bloomed…

What’s that now, Papa?
You say you found a note from Santa
One present didn’t fit down the chimney
And it’s outside on the balcony
And apparently it’s mine
Oh, I wonder what I’ll find

Oh, Mama, lookie!
Santa left one of the cookies
And it’s on top of a new bicycle
Just when I felt cold like an icicle
He gave me such a big surprise
And I can’t believe my eyes!
And you know that I’ll be good
Just like I promised that I would

(Fade starts-little brother sings)
Ah, Mama, lookie All Santa gave me is a Wookie
Mother speaks: “Well, now that’s what you asked for, Santa can’t read minds”
And my brother got a bicycle
Mother: “That was on his list!”
And he never does a thing at all
Mother: “Now, now,"
And it really isn't fair
you’ll get a bike when you get older….”
And it's more than I can bear
