Suddenly it's Christmas
Right after Hallowe'en
Forget about Thanksgiving;
It's just a buffet in between
There's lights and tinsel in the windows;
They're stocking up the shelves;
Santa's slaving at the North Pole
In his sweatshop full of elves
There's got to be a build-up
To the day that Christ was born:
The halls are decked with pumpkins
And the ears of Indian corn
Dragging through the falling leaves
In a one-horse open sleigh
Suddenly it's Christmas
Seven weeks before the day
Suddenly it's Christmas
The longest holiday
When they say "Season's Greetings"
They mean just what they say:
It's a season, it's a marathon
Retail eternity
It's not over till it's over
And you throw away the tree
