Santa Claus is Coming to Town
Embrace Goodness: Santa's Watchful Eye Reveals Who's Naughty or Nice
Lyrics
You better watch out
Warning to be cautious and attentive
You better not cry
Advising against crying
You better not pout, I'm telling you why
Discouraging pouting, stating a reason
Santa Claus is coming to town
Announcing Santa Claus's imminent arrival
He's making a list,
Describing Santa making a list
He's checking it twice,
Mentioning checking the list twice for accuracy
He's gonna find out who's naughty or nice
Expressing Santa's intent to determine behavior
Santa Claus is coming to town
Reiterating Santa's impending arrival
He knows you when you're sleeping
Stating Santa's awareness of sleep patterns
And he knows when you're awake
Highlighting Santa's knowledge of wakefulness
He knows if you've been bad or good
Indicating Santa's awareness of behavior
So be good for goodness sake
Encouraging good behavior for a positive outcome
You better watch out!
Repeating the warning to be watchful
You better not cry
Reiterating the advice against crying
You better not pout, I'm telling you why
Reemphasizing the discouragement of pouting
Santa Claus is coming to town
Reaffirming Santa's imminent arrival
He knows you when you're sleeping
Repeating Santa's knowledge of sleep patterns
And he knows when you're awake
Restating Santa's awareness of wakefulness
He knows if you've been bad or good
Reiterating Santa's awareness of behavior
So be good for goodness sake
Reemphasizing the importance of good behavior
You better watch out!
Reiterating the warning to be cautious
You better not cry
Reemphasizing the advice against crying
You better not pout, I'm telling you why
Reiterating the discouragement of pouting
Santa Claus is coming to town
Reaffirming Santa Claus's imminent arrival
You better watch out!
Repeating the caution to be watchful
You better not cry
Reiterating the advice against crying
You better not pout, I'm telling you why
Reiterating the discouragement of pouting
Santa Claus is coming to town
Reaffirming Santa Claus's imminent arrival
Santa Claus is coming
-I mean the big fat man with the long white beard
Providing a playful description of Santa
Is coming to town
Reiterating the impending arrival of Santa
