A Little Christmas

But we need a little Christmas

Right this very minute,

Candles in the window,

Carols at the spinet...

Slice up the fruitcake;

It's time we hung some tinsel on that evergreen bough.

For we need a little music, 

need a little laughter,

Need a little singing

Ringing through the rafter,

And we need a little snappy,

"Happy ever after,"

Need a little Christmas now.
