Lyrics
SANTA COMES ONCE A YEAR
Lyrics: George Simonovich, Music: George Simonovich, Harry Kopy
HeÂ?s saving all his love, for one special night
And making out his list, and checking some names twice
Black leather boots, red velvet and white fur
And in his bag of goodies, all the toys for boys and girls
Like a polar bear, hibernating in a hole
HeÂ?s deep into the woods, somewhere up in the North Pole
Candy sugarplums, and other sweet things
When Santa Claus comes, peace on earth, the angels sing
HeÂ?s building it up, just to bring it down
Except for one day a year, you wonÂ?t see him around
Cause, Santa, comes once a year
Yeah Santa, comes only once each year
Rosy red cheeks, and big red nose
Waiting for the night, the tension and excitement grows
Just canÂ?t sleep, anticipating in bed
With such delightful thoughts, dancing in your head
HeÂ?s building it up, just to bring it down
Except for one day a year, you wonÂ?t see him around
Cause, Santa, comes once a year
Yeah Santa, comes only once each year
Only once each year
Only once each year
Only once each year
Only once each year
Santa, Santa, Santa
Santa, Santa, Santa
