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. I put a tack in my 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. (Chorus) 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. (Chorus) So better be good whatever you do, ‘Cause if you’re bad, I’m warning you, You’ll get nuttin’ for Christmas.
