It was the night before Christmas when all through the castleMy monsters were having a Yuletide hassleThe tree was all trimmed in ghoulish thingsLike werewolf fangs and vampire wings(It was a monsters' holiday)But they were up to no good(It was a monsters' holiday)Didn't act like good monsters should(It was a monsters' holiday)They found themselves a new play(It was a monsters' holiday)They planned to rob Santa's sleighThey were making a list and checking it twiceFrankenstein wanted a shiny new trike A new chain for YarnushA brace for Igor's backA speed shaver for WolfmanA new cape for Drak(It was a monsters' holiday)But they were up to no good(It was a monsters' holiday)Didn't act like good monster's should(It was a monsters' holiday)They found themselves a new play(It was a monsters' holiday)They planned to rob Santa's sleighSongtexteThe Mummy was to signal from the castle roofAt the very first sound of a reindeer hoofAs Santa slid down the chimney wallThe zombies were to make off with sleigh and allFrom beyond the moat, there arose such a clatterI jumped to the window to see what was the matterLike a bolt of lightning, it happened so quickAnd there in our midst stood old Saint NickHe began to dig down deep in his sackAnd came up with the traction for Igor's backDrak got his capeFranky's trike made him behaveEven Wolfman was happy, now he can shave(It was a monsters' holiday)And all ended well(It was a monsters' holiday)And Santa was really swell(It was a monsters' holiday)No need to rob Santa's sleigh(It was a monsters' holiday)Maybe next year he'll come backSo the children everywhere were spared the griefOf losing their presents to a monster sleigh thiefNow the monsters love Santa and say they'll behaveAnd never again rob sleighs or graves(It was a monsters' holiday!)Igor, what do you think of Santa now? "Arrrrrr . . . Santa good!"And Santa said as he drove out of sight"Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!"Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the wayOh what fun it is to ride in a one-wolf open sleighDashing through the snowWhere is that reindeer with the red noseOn Dasher and Dancer and Comet and Cupid . . .
