Hello, everyone out there. This is Carl and the rest of Madness
We'd just like to bring you a bit of Christmas cheer
Please remember to keep a smile on your face 'till the New Year

Hello, this is Woody. And we've got a little song for ya. Merry Christmas
1, 2, 3, 4

Hi ya, Merry Christmas everyone, Mark here. I'm going to play a bit of bass for you now.

Hello, this is Chris, Happy Christmas

Hi, Lee Kix here, filling your stocking
I play sax

But also, I sing at the same time
Baffling, eh?

Well, it's jingling bells, it's Christmas time
As Santa fetches his sack
Snowdrop glitter falls from the skies
To settle upon each and everyone's back

Chimney sweeps take to the streets
In the ongoing situation
Pages freeze upon your pension book
And up flies the flag of inflation

But oh this time I'll be waiting up by the chimney stack
On this coldest year since brr, up up up above a reindeer's back
Stop off at the Rock of Gibraltar
Tea under the blue lagoons of Malta
Wrap up warmer in Warsaw
Cruise over the flats of Alaska

And all this time I'll be waiting up by the chimney stack
On this coldest year since brr, up up up above a reindeer's back

I hope you've enjoyed this song so far.
This is Suggs, and now I am going to take it away
OK, lads, get closer together

And all this time I'll be waiting up by the chimney stack
On this coldest year since brr, up up up above a reindeer's back

OK, quiet everybody. You should come on here
Er, hit me with those backing vocals, yeah

Ooh
Ooh

"You'll never take me alive, copper"
"Look, reindeer, don't be silly, just settle down"
"I'm gonna get that coney to ma"
"We've got you on six counts of disturbing the peace"
"Shove it, copper, I'll stick a grapefruit in your face"
"We're gonna keep singing "
"You are so..You are so...out of a job! Now come on down here"
"Nothings going to stop us singing, copper, even if I have gotta come down that chimney myself and Stick it in your face"
"I'm going to send in the troops if you don't come down here""
"We're going to keep singing in every home in the nation"
"Do whatever you want to do. Do what you...f*ck! That's it!
"You stupid flatfoot, you'll never take me alive.
I'm on top of the world Ma
Top of the world Ma-Ma?"

Get those stickers on you know...Chris, quieten down over there, will you, I'm trying to get a Message across, you know
I'm going to change the world overnight, yeah
Thank you
Thank you
