We Need a Little Christmas

[MERCEDES]
Haul out the holly
Put up the tree before
My spirit falls again
Fill up the stocking
I may be rushing things but
Deck the halls again now

[MERCEDES with NEW DIRECTIONS]
For we need a little Christmas
Right this very minute
Candles in the window
Carols at the spinet
Yes, we need a little Christmas
Right this very minute
It hasn't snowed a single flurry
But Santa, dear we're in a hurry, so

[TINA with NEW DIRECTIONS]
Climb down the chimney
Put up the brightest string of
Lights I’ve ever seen
Slice up the fruitcake
It’s time we hung some tinsel
On that evergreen bough

For I’ve grown a little leaner
Grown a little colder
Grown a little sadder
Grown a little older
And I need a little angel
Sitting on my shoulder
I need a little Christmas now

[MERCEDES (& TINA)]
(Haul out the holly)
Well, once I taught you
All to live each living day
(Fill up the stockin)

[KURT]
But Auntie Mame, it's one week
Past Thanksgiving Day now

[TINA with NEW DIRECTIONS]
But we need a little Christmas
Right this very minute
Candles in the window
Carols at the spinet
And, we need a little Christmas
Right this very minute
It hasn't snowed a single flurry
But Santa, dear, we're in a hurry, so

[KURT]
Climb down the chimney
Its been a long time since
I've done the neighbourly

[TINA with MERCEDES]
Slice up the fruitcake
It's time we hung some tinsel
On that may-berry bough

[MERCEDES & TINA with NEW DIRECTIONS]
For we need a little Christmas
Right this very minute
Candles in the window
Carols at the spinet
And, we need a little Christmas
Right this very minute

We need a little Christmas now
We need a little Christmas now
We need a little Christmas now!
