Wanted toys for Christmas, toys for Christmas.
Santa Brought Me Clothes. Even wrapped in pretty
Packages, clothes are still clothes. You gotta
Wash 'em. You gotta wear 'em. You gotta fold 'em
And take care of 'em. Any way you look at it,
It's not what I chose. Santa Brought Me Clothes.
There's nothing like having the whole family
There, Laughing when you open up a big box of
Underwear. When I said I like rocks, somebody
Must've thought I said socks. I got about a
Hundred pair.
I wanted toys for Christmas, toys for Christmas.
Santa Brought Me Clothes. Even wrapped in pretty

One little game and my life would be so changed.
One little toy and my heart would fill with joy. A
Bike with one little wheel might be a better deal.
I want to have some fun. Do you remember how that
Feels?
Maybe some day I'll like suits and ties, But for
Now it's trampolines and slides. And I don't think
I'll ever be happy with a sweater,
I'd rather have a sled.
I wanted toys for Christmas, toys for Christmas.
Santa Brought Me Clothes. It's better than switches,
Better than coal, better than nothing I suppose.
