I stuffed my face into the fridge,
A five pound ham was baked,
And the mashed potaters were all that was left,
Of the family feast from yesterday.
Why did it have to end,
The food was love and the cheer was great,
I'm only here for three weeks at a time, so,
I don't care if I'm late.
Break out, break out,
All the silver and gold,
That frame, that frame,
Could use mistletoe,
I hear, I hear,
Us ringin' the bells,
We know, we know,
This show's gonna sell.
(Way-yo!)
We are the Festive Follies!
(Way-yo!)
Everyday's another jolly one!
(Way-yo!)
We're always back for more!
(Way-yo!)
We're bringing the party straight to your door!
Ooh, oeh,
Ooh wah ooh waah,
Ooh, oeh,
Oooooh,
Ooh, oeh,
Ooh wah ooh waah,
Ooh, oeh,
Oooooh.
We danced with Santa, ginger ale,
Was all the evidence left,
And we drew some reindeer tracks on the stairs,
(Oh yeah)
Next to the ones that were already there.
(What the-)
We perform only once a year,
The 26th of December has us here,
Where we play our greatest hits in one go,
If nobody shows we play for the snow.
Look out, look out,
I've got a new sled,
That house, that house,
Could use gingerbread
I smell, I smell,
Warm cookies and milk,
Our gloves, our boots,
Are soft like a silk.
(Way-yo!)
We are the Festive Follies!
(Way-yo!)
Everyday's another jolly one!
(Way-yo!)
We're always back for more!
(Way-yo!)
We're bringing the party straight to your door!
Ooh, oeh,
Ooh wah ooh waah,
Ooh, oeh,
Oooooh,
Ooh, oeh,
Ooh wah ooh waah,
Ooh, oeh,
Oooooh.
(Way-yo!)
We are the Festive Follies!
(Way-yo!)
Everyday's another jolly one!
(Way-yo!)
We're always back for more!
(Way-yo!)
We're bringing the party straight to your door!
(Oooooh!)
(Way-yo!)
We are the Festive Follies!
(Festive Follies!)
(Way-yo!)
Everyday's another jolly one!
(Just another little jolly one!)
(Way-yo!)
We're always back for more!
(Way-yo!)
(Ooh!)
We're bringing the party straight to your door!
Ooh, oeh,
Ooh wah ooh waah,
Ooh, oeh,
Oooooh,
Ooh, oeh,
Ooh wah ooh waah,
Ooh, oeh,
Oooooh.

Ha Laa La La La Ooh!

I cannot keep up,
For you have taken up.
Well I'm trying endlessly around the town,
But you know I'm falling down,
But you know I'm falling.
Ha laa la la la ooh,
Ha laa la la la ooh,
Ha laa la la la ooh,
Ha laa la la la ooh.
How in an old rink,
You can still find new trails,
Well I'm sorry but I've got nowhere else to go;
I'm on you like hail.
Now I'm honest,
I want our eyes to meet one day.
Should I hurry up or should I stay?
(Standing on my back now!)
Oh! Should I hurry up or should I stay?
Oh ohhhh!
Standing on my back now!
Ha laa la la la ooh,
Ha laa la la la ooh,
(Standing on my back now!)
Ha laa la la la ooh,
Ha laa la la la ooh,
(Standing on my back now!)
Oooooh.
I've... I've never felt ice colder,
And I've never felt softer shoulders,
And I can't make myself believe,
But you make me feel like it's Christmas Eve.
Ha laa la la la ooh,
Ha laa la la la ooh,
(Standing on my back now!)
Ha laa la la la ooh,
Ha laa la la la ooh,
(Standing on my back now!)

Remember when you were clean, you had a nice gleam.
Shine on you crazy snow globe.
Now there's a stain on your glass, like fire in the grass.
Shine on you crazy snow globe.
You were caught in my Windex and steel wool with a sponge, damning the bookshelf.
Come on you reason for incessant cleanings, come on you object, you friend's gift, you ornament, and shine!
I brought over some guests too soon, the dust was a'bloom.
Shine on you crazy snow globe.
Threatened by social standards, and some asthmatic words.
Shine on you crazy snow globe.
Well you snuffed my company with mad dust bunnies (maa-ad), ruling the bookshelf.
Come on you bloodstain, you knower of my pain, come on you smoker, you lawyer, you player, and shine!
