You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town

He's making a list
Checking it twice
Gonna find out
Who's naughty or nice
Santa Claus is comin' to town

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

You better watch out (you better watch out)
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town

He sees you when you're sleepin'
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
Waah
You better watch out (you better watch out)
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
