Santa Claus, Santa Claus, you are much too fat! (sing to the tune of “Jingle Bells”)

Jingle Bells

1.I heard a reindeer hoof, then Santa dressed in red,

Came crashing through the roof and landed on my bed.

I thought it was a dream but quickly did I wake

As soon as I heard Santa scream “I want a piece of cake!”

Chorus:

Oh, Santa Claus, Santa Claus you are much too fat,

I was sleeping peacefully but now my bed is flat.

Oh! Santa Claus, Santa Claus how much do you weight?

I’m glad I’m not a reindeer that has to pull your sleigh.

2.He got up off the floor and said, ”How do you do”

I said “My back is sore, my head is black and blue.”

“So sorry” he replied, and then he asked my name

He offered me a ride, I said “No thank you just the same”

3.I heard a “ho, ho, ho” the sleigh was in the sky

But it was moving slow and wasn’t very high

It wobbled in the air, I hoped it wouldn’t fall;

Said Santa, chewing cookies, “Merry Christmas, one and all”

My Bonnie

My bonnie is over the ocean, my bonnie is over the sea,

My bonnie is over the ocean, oh bring back my bonnie to me.

Chorus:

Bring back, bring back, oh, bring back my bonnie to me, to me.(2)

Last night as I lay on my pillow, last night as I lay on my bed.

Last night as I lay on my pillow, I dreamed that my bonnie was dead.

Chorus.

The wind has blown over the window, the wind has blown over the sea,

The wind has blown over the ocean and brought back my bonnie to me.

Chorus:

Brought back, brought back, oh, brought back my bonnie to me. (2)

HALLOWEEN SONG

I was a monster the other night and I gave everyone such a fright,

It was the scariest Halloween I have ever seen.

I saw a fairy princess in a wig and silver dress,

It was the scariest Halloween I’ve ever seen.

There were orange pumpkins and vampire bats

There were lots of witches wearing big black hats.

I saw a clown juggling and a mummy shuffling,

It was the scariest Halloween I’ve ever seen.

There were little devils dancing up and down

There were hairy spiders crawling on the ground.

It was the scariest Halloween I’ve ever seen

It was the scariest Halloween I’ve ever seen.
