What I Want for Christmas
(Shrader)

I like Christmas
That’s one day I love
I’d take the star of Bethlehem
Give it a great big hug

Yeah, I like Christmas
I love the eve and the day
Food and lights, holiday delights
What more could I say?

But there’s something else
And that’s what’s in it for me
My spirit feeds
On material needs

(CHORUS)

Cash and clothes,
I want lots of those
Crockpots and clocks,
Pairs of warm socks

Hats and rings
And expensive things
Stuff that I can touch and see
That’s what I want for Christmas
That’s what I want for me
