I am Festus Claus, the son of Santa And I've got a thing for Frosty's daughter Father says, "No way, because a month from now she'll turn into a puddle of water This December love affair is doomed because of next month's expiration date" We're gonna leave here soon, 'cause I'm in love with her And I can hardly, I can hardly wait "Son, this kind of love was never meant to be It won't survive the changing weather" Wynter Snowgirl, come and run away with me So we can always be together "NO!!! If you leave...I'll be canceling Christmas this year!"
II. Runaway Romance
Something's wrong here The city's angry It's Christmas Eve, but life is dull Just business as usual The crowded streets scream Without mercy They come and go, all work, no play Like any other day I can't believe my father's nerve He's wiped it from the calendar And nobody remembers this is Christmas Eve (Humbug!) No making lists and checking twice No happy kids naughty and nice 'Cause somehow he's erased it from their memory
Kiss me under the mistletoe And we can break the spell of Father Christmas Jingle Bells on the radio So help another angel get his wings Close your eyes and I'll be your star tonight Wynter stay, since Father Christmas took Christmas away
Desperate times mean desperate measures There's only one way out of this: A jolly elf-on-snowgirl kiss Santa's workshop is full of treasures Tonight we've gotta get those toys to all the girls and boys I feel there's something in the air From our forbidden love affair But they could never understand 'Cause true love lasts forever Twig in hand, just be my girl It's you and me against the world So come with me, and we can save the day together
Kiss me under the mistletoe And we can break the spell of Father Christmas Jingle Bells on the radio So help another angel get his wings Close your eyes and I'll be your star tonight Wynter stay, since Father Christmas took Christmas away
Christmas, Christmas, where is Christmas?
No more sugarplums are dancing in dreams No more stockings hung in holiday scenes No more reindeer pulling sleighs in the snow No more children with their faces aglow
Life goes on, but Christmas is nowhere to be found There's no magic in the air The people shiver in the cold And their hearts are as freezing as the snow
III. A Surprise Confrontation
"Son, you'd better stay away from that little ho ho ho You know I saw you kiss her under the mistletoe But if you think that that's enough to break the spell I cast Then boy there's something you oughta know" Dad, you can't accept the fact that Wynter's the girl for me I'm old enough to know the ways of the family Now you'll deny it, 'cause you try to keep it quiet, But I know you've always hated the people of the snow "That's a lie and you know it!" No it's not! "Then go ahead and you prove it!" At Thanksgiving you said that thing that time after you had a couple glasses of wine "Hey hey hey now, listen son, I'm telling you that's not what it's all about" Well, what's the problem then? 'Cause we're going out! "I'm not gonna let my son be ruined by some ice queen of her kind"
Come on, quit it, just admit it Stop denying it, I've had enough Snowgirl crazy, elf-boy hazy Ain't no thinking maybe, we're in love
IV: Jolly Bearded Madman
"You can't get away from me! But I ain't gonna hurt ya Got a Christmas present for you, my dear" You'd better stay away from her!
