WRAPPED UP NICE

Music and lyrics by Jim Laev


VERSE:
Some folks say that the Seventies were heaven.
All I know is that beat I like.
And if you want to dance with me on this holiday,
There's something big we gotta cover
Before heading down the pike.

I?ve gotten use to being treated real fine.
I scoff at lots of offers, propositions and schemes.
It's not about my present.
What's inside will be divine.
But let the packing not be lacking, or it's all just in your dreams.
It's gotta be

CHORUS: Wrapped up nice.
Wrapped up nice.
Wrapped up nice.
Wrapped up nice.

VERSE:
A gift is to receive.
A gift is also to give.
But how could a gift be good
if it's not dressed up to live?

Don?t need no ribbons or bows to make it proper or more.
But if you want your toes to curl while they're whirling off the floor,
This package better be

CHORUS: Wrapped up nice.
Now that's a present.
Wrapped up nice.
It's paradise.
Wrapped up nice.
Now that's a present.
Wrapped up nice.
Oh yeah, that's paradise.

BRIDGE:
And I gotta say I?m sure it's worth it.
Up on my high-horse.
Oh yes, I can be haughty.
So wrap it like you?re Santa.
Let your fantasies give birth.
Sometimes nice is also, oh, so naughty.

It's gotta be

CHORUS: Wrapped up nice.
Now that's a present.
Wrapped up nice.
A happy holiday.
Wrapped up nice.
Wow, that's a present.
Wrapped up nice.
A heavenly holiday.

Someone's gonna be coming to town!

Now that's a wrap!
