[Verse 1]
I 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
[Chorus]
(Oh) I'm getting nuttin' for Christmas
Mommy and Daddy are mad
I'm getting nuttin' for Christmas
Because I ain't been nothing but bad
[Verse 2]
I put a tack on teacher's chair
Somebody snitched on me
I tied a knot in Susie's hair
Somebody snitched on me
I did a dance on Grandma's plants
Climbed a tree and tore my pants
Filled the sugar bowl up with ants
Somebody snitched on me
[Chorus]
(Oh) I'm getting nuttin' for Christmas
Mommy and Daddy are mad
I'm getting nuttin' for Christmas
Because I ain't been nothing but bad
[Verse 3]
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]
(Oh) I'm getting nuttin' for Christmas
Mommy and Daddy are mad
I'm getting nuttin' for Christmas
Because I ain't been nothing but bad
(Oh) I'm getting nuttin' for Christmas
Mommy and Daddy are mad
I'm getting nuttin' for Christmas
Because I ain't been nothing but bad
[Outro]
Because I can't be nothing but bad
Because I ain't been nothing but bad
