The Nice List

(album: Yule Tunes - 2017)

Presents under the tree
I only took a few peeks
When you said "naughty or nice", exactly what did you mean?

I put out cookies and milk
But I couldn't help myself
Before I knew it, the dozen turns to crumbs

But can I stay on the nice list?
Santa, tell me the secret
Except for a couple times, I've been pretty good
Can I stay on the nice list?

I passed a snowball fight
You know I had to join in
And I put one right between their eyes

I spiked the eggnog good
I stole some gingerbread
I'll never do it again, Santa, I swear that I'll change

But can I stay on the nice list?
Santa, tell me the secret
Except for a couple times, I've been pretty good
Can I stay on the nice list?

Santa, is it so black and white?
Santa, can we just let it slide?
When you said "naughty or nice",
Did you really mean all of the time?

Just some other time
Can I stay on the nice list?
Santa, tell me the secret
Except for a couple times, I've been pretty good
Can we just overlook this
Can you just look the other way, just once?
Can I stay on the nice list?
Can I stay on the nice list?
