[Verse 1]
Do you see the holly and the winter ivy grow?
The shock of bright red berries against the ivory snow
Silver bells and ponytails all put on a show
Do you see the holly and the winter ivy grow?
Do you hear the wild geese who too long have stayed?
Or see how the golden star atop the tree is placed?
Eskimo kisses and well-wishes this time of year are made
Do you hear the wild geese who too long have stayed?
Snowflakes give me kaleidoscope eyes
A dizzying flurry of crystalline skies
Cinnamon and holly and pine come to mind

[Chorus 1]
It's Christmastime! It's Christmastime!
Do you smell the Christmas pie in the oven bake?
See the flicker of white candles gleaming off the dinner plate
Forgotten mittens, boys mistletoe smitten all look for a mate
Do you smell the Christmas pie in the oven bake?
Snowflakes give me kaleidoscope eyes
A dizzying flurry of crystalline skies
Cinnamon and holly and pine come to mind

[Chorus 2]
It's Christmastime! It's Christmastime!
Do you see the holly and the winter ivy grow?
(Do you see the holly and the winter ivy grow?)
The shock of bright red berries against the ivory snow
(The shock of bright red berries against the ivory snow)
Silver bells and ponytails all put on a show
(Silver bells and ponytails all put on a show)
Do you see the holly and the winter ivy grow?
(Do you see the holly and the winter ivy grow?)

[Outro]
Snowflakes give me kaleidoscope eyes
A dizzying flurry of crystalline skies
Cinnamon and holly and pine come to mind
It's Christmastime! It's Christmastime!
It's Christmastime! It's Christmastime!
Fa la la la la la la la la la la la la
