You better watch out
You better not cry
Better not pout, 'cause I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
He's making a list (Making a list)
And checking it twice (Checking it twice)
Gonna find out who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is coming to town
He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good, for goodness sake
You better watch out (You better watch out)
You better not cry (You better not cry)
You better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
He sees us when we're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if we've been bad or good
So be good, for goodness sake
You better watch out (You better watch out)
You better not cry
You better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to—
He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good, for goodness sake
You better watch out (Santa)
You better not cry (Claus is)
You better not pout, I'm telling you why (Coming to—)
Santa Claus is coming (Who's coming?)
Santa Claus is coming (Who's coming?)
Santa Claus is coming to town
