Lyrics

[GROUP]

This time, this time

[GHOSTS]
Making Christmas

[ACCORDION PLAYER]
Making Christmas

[MAYOR]
Making Christmas, making Christmas
Is so fine

[MAYOR, CORPSE MOM, CORPSE DAD, CYCLOPS, CLOWN]
It's ours this time
And won't the children be surprised
It's ours this time

[CORPSE KID]
Making Christmas

[MUMMY]
Making Christmas

[MUMMY & CORPSE KID]
Making Christmas

[WITCHES]
Time to give them something fun

[WITCHES & UNDERSEA GAL]
They'll talk about for years to come

[GROUP]
Let's have a cheer from everyone
It's time to party

[VAMPIRES]
Making Christmas

[VAMPIRES AND TOY DUCK]

Making Christmas

[VAMPIRES]
Snakes and mice get wrapped up so nice
With spiders legs and pretty bows

[WINGED DEMON]
It's ours this time

[CORPSE FATHER, WOLFMAN, AND DEVIL]
All together, that and this
With all our tricks we're
Making Christmastime

[WOLFMAN]
Here comes jack

[JACK]
I don't believe what's happening to me
My hopes, my dreams, my fantasies
Hee, hee, hee, hee

[HARLEQUIN DEMON]
Won't they be impressed, I am a genius
See how I transform this old rat
Into a most delightful hat

[JACK]
Hmm, my compliments from me to you
On this your most intriguing hat
Consider though this substitute
A bat in place of this old rat
Huh! No, no, no, now that's all wrong
This thing will never make a present
It's been dead for much too long
Try something fresher, something pleasant
Try again, don't give up

[THREE MR. HYDES]
All together, that and this
With all our tricks we're making Christmastime

[GROUP]
This time, this time
Making Christmas, making Christmas
La, la, la
It's almost here
And we can't wait
So ring the bells and celebrate
'Cause when the full moon starts to climb
We'll all sing out

[JACK]
It's Christmastime
Hee, hee, hee

Trivia

  • The melody of the song is derived from the Dies Irae, a melody commonly used in film and stage to symbolize death and impending doom. This is true in the case of Making Christmas as it is the direct rising action to Jack's nightmarish Christmas which results in anarchy for the humans, and Jack getting shot out of the sky.
