Dashing through the mall,
In a frantic sort of way.
I don't care at all
'Bout what I have to pay.
Cash registers ring,
Make my wallet light,
But I don't think about a thing
'Cept getting done tonight.
Christmas Eve, Christmas Eve,
Final shopping day.
Other folks, more organized,
Might have some time to play, but--
Christmas Eve, Christmas Eve,
What time do they close?
No time for baking cookies,
I'll pick up some Oreos.
Checked my list last night,
Thought that I was done.
Nothing for my sis,
My in-laws, or my son.
Grab a shirt for Dad,
A sweater for Aunt Sue.
They will just exchange 'em when
The holidays are through.
O, Christmas Eve, Christmas Eve,
From Macy's to Wal-Mart.
Took a Batman Lego
Out of someone else's cart, O--
Christmas Eve, Christmas Eve,
Got no time to wrap.
I know what I want next year:
Just a twenty-five-day nap.
