verse)
I broke my bat on Johnny`s head; somebody snitched on me.
I hid a frog in sister`s bed; somebody snitched on me.
I spilled some ink on Mommy`s rug,I made Tommy eat a bug,
Bought some gum with a penny slug; somebody snitched on me. Oh,(chorus)
I`m gettin` nuttin` for Christmas.Mommy and Daddy are mad.
I`m gettin` nuttin` for Christmas,`Cause I ain`t been nuttin` but bad.(verse)
I put a tack on teacher`s chair, somebody snitched on me.
I tied a knot in Susie`s hair; somebody snitched on me.
I did a dance on Mommy`s plants, climbed a tree and tore my pants.
Filled the sugar bowl with ants; somebody snitched on me. So,(repeat chorus)
(verse)I won`t be seeing Santa Claus; somebody snitched on me.
He won`t come visit me because somebody snitched on me.
Next year I`ll be going straight, next year I`ll be good, just wait.
I`d start now but it`s too late; somebody snitched on me. Oh,(repeat chorus)
(coda)So, you better be good, whatever you do,
`Cause if you`re bad I`m warning you,You`ll get nuttin` for Christmas
