LYRICS
Good ‘ole Saint Nick
Up his sleeve, he’s got a trick
He’ll make those reindeer fly
Taking toys high in the sky
Good Saint Nick

Overcoming adversity
To try n’ make everyone happy
Good Saint Nick
Good ‘ole Saint Nick

Here’s the trick
If all year long, we just kept a lil’ good ‘ole Saint Nick
As our secret trick
As our back-up plan
To show a human
Humanity
Yeah, let’s see if we can show humanity someone being humane
If any remain?

Good Saint Nick
Keep a little in your heart
That a good place to start
Good Saint Nick
Keep a little in your heart
Maybe we’ll start

LYRICS
[knock, knock]
I swore I heard a knock at the door
When I went to explore
I found they were no more
There was no body
Nobody was there

It was the strangest thing
I heard the doorbell ring
Thought maybe it was some carolers coming to sing
The strangest thing
When I answered the door
They were no more
There was no body there
Nobody

[knock, knock]
Who is it?

Up on the rooftop
Most baffling
Hearing the strangest thing
Like 8 little reindeer hoof
When I say little… they weren’t really that little… but compared to the roof
8 reindeer hoofs… 8 x 4… maybe even more
If ya count the one rednosed one
So I arose
Trying to be on my toes
I suppose…
Out of curiosity
I had to see
If there was anybody there
Some body
Somebody
Coming down the chimney
I had to see
’cause I’d heard
It was a tradition
And, I was just itching
To find out if this tradition was just fiction
Or, if there was just a sliver of truth
Because if it could be true for me
Maybe it could be true for you, too
So I had to see what this clutter was… this clutter of clatter
If it ’twas the spirit of Christmas
Is that no body somebody
Hard to put my finger on it
This Christmas spirit
But, I tell ya I hear it
Up on the rooftop
Yes, I suppose when I arose
I just had to look in the right place
If I wanted to see the Christmas spirit’s face
It was right in front of me the whole time
And, here I am searching high and low
At least now I know

Up on the rooftop
Why not?
