[Chorus] You'd better watch out, you'd better not cry Better not pout, I'm telling you why Santa Claus is coming to town [Verse] He's making a list and checking it twice Going to find out who's naughty and nice Santa Claus is coming to town He sees you when you're sleeping He knows when you're awake He knows if you've been bad or good So be good for goodness sake [Chorus]
