Santa Claus Is Coming to Town

by Straight No Chaser

Lyrics
Santa Claus is comin'
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin'
Santa Claus is comin' to town

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm tellin' you why

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town hey

He's makin' a list
An' checkin' it twice

He's gonna find out
Who's naughty or nice

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

He sees you when your sleepin'
He knows when your awake
He knows if you been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm tellin' you why

Santa Claus is comin' to town

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

Santa Claus is comin'
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin'
Santa Claus is comin' to town

The kids and girl in Boyland
Will have what you believe
They're gonna build a Toyland
All around the Christmas tree

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm tellin' you why

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is coming to town

(x2)
Santa Claus is comin'
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin'
Santa Claus is comin'
Santa Claus is comin', comin', comin' to town

Santa Claus is comin' (x3)
Is comin' to town

About "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"

Straight No Chaser reinvents the holiday standard as a cappella architecture—voices stacked like snowdrifts, each syllable a bell. The arrangement's brisk confidence turns anticipation into a communal pulse, the group's blend so tight it feels like one throat singing ten parts.
