Studio, Mic it up, Roll the tape
It's Christmas eve
Gotta turn this record in before the holidays
We hear this crazy noise up on the roof
Squeezing through the air vent, call security
It couldn't be
Who invited Santa to the studio?
As we're putting final touches to this song
he said "now Merry Christmas everyone"
As he reached into his bag for his guitar
Could you imagine how I felt when I stopped the tape?
I told him it was great but that he rushed the beat
Then he smiled at me
Then he said "I'm in a little rush,
Cause I'm in a time crunch.
Got a three o'clock downbeat with N'Sync
Who invited Santa to the studio?
As he's putting final touches to this song
He said "now Merry Christmas everyone"
As he climbed back up the air vent to his sleigh.
