Christmas bells are ringing
Christmas bells are ringing
Christmas bells are ringing
No stocking, no candy canes
No gingerbread, no safety net
No loose change, no change, no
'Cause Santa Claus ain't coming
No room at the Holiday Inn again
Well, maybe next year or when
December twenty-fourth, ten p.m.
I can't believe a year went by so fast
Time to see, what we have time to see
Turn the projector on first shot roger
With the fender guitar he just got out of hock
That took him away and back
If he could just find Mimi
Pulling Benny out of the east village location
Then again, maybe we won't screen it tonight
I wonder how Alison found out about Mimi?
Maybe a bird told her or an angel
I had a little hunch you could use, a little 'flow
Back at you? No, no you, no
I rewired the ATM at the food emporium
To provide an honorarium to anyone with the code
Yet robin hooding isn't the solution
The powers that be must be undermined
Where they dwell in a small exclusive
Where we overcharge the wealthy, clientle
Let's open up a restaurant in Santa Fe
With a private corner banquette in the back
We'll make it yet, we'll somehow get to Santa Fe
But you'd miss New York before you could unpack
Mark, Roger, anyone? Help
It's Mimi, I can't get her up the stairs
No, she was huddled in the park in the dark
And she was freezing and begged to come here
Got a light, I know you, you're shivering
She's been living on the street
We can buy some wood and something to eat
I'm afraid she needs more than heat
Collins will call for a doctor, honey
Don't waste your money on mimi, me, me
Hell
