CHRISTMAS CAROLS
Watch the video and try to remember as many things connected to Christmas as you can. Is the song familiar? Why?
LISTEN
We wish you a Merry Christmas, 
We wish you a Merry Christmas, 
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 

Good tidings we bring to you and your kin, 
Good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year. 

Oh, bring us a figgy pudding,
Oh, bring us a figgy pudding, 
Oh, bring us a figgy pudding and a cup of good cheer.

We won`t go until we get some,
We won`t go until we get some, 
We won`t go until we get some, so bring some out here.

We wish you a Merry Christmas,
We wish you a Merry Christmas, 
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
 
LISTEN
Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
O`er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bob tails ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to laugh and sing
A sleighing song tonight

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh


A day or two ago
I thought I`d take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune seemed his lot
We got into a drifted bank
And then we got upsot

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
JINGLE BELLS
LISTEN
Jingle bell rock

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun.

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air.

What a bright time, it`s the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet
That`s the jingle bell,
That`s the jingle bell,
That`s the jingle bell rock.
LISTEN
Deck the halls with boughs of holly, 
Fa la la la la, la la la la. 
Tis the season to be jolly, 
Fa la la la la, la la la la. 
 

Don we now our gay apparel, 
Fa la la, la la la, la la la. 
Troll the ancient Yule tide carol, 
Fa la la la la, la la la la. 

See the blazing Yule before us, 
Fa la la la la, la la la la. 
Strike the harp and join the chorus. 
Fa la la la la, la la la la. 
Follow me in merry measure, 
Fa la la la la, la la la la. 
While I tell of Yule tide treasure, 
Fa la la la la, la la la la. 

Fast away the old year passes, 
Fa la la la la, la la la la. 
Hail the new, ye lads and lasses, 
Fa la la la la, la la la la. 


Sing we joyous, all together, 
Fa la la la la, la la la la. 
Heedless of the wind and weather, 
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
DECK THE HALLS
LISTEN
You better watch out
You better not cry
Better not pout
I`m telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
He`s making a list
And checking it twice;
Gonna find out who`s naughty and nice
Santa Claus is coming to town

He sees you when you`re sleeping
He knows when you`re awake
He knows if you`ve been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake!
O! You better watch out!
You better not cry
Better not pout
I`m telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is Coming to Town
LISTEN
Rocking around the Christmas Tree
at the Christmas party hop
Mistletoe hung where you can see
Ev`ry couple tries to stop

Rocking around the Christmas Tree
Let the Christmas Spirit ring
Later we`ll have some pumpkin pie
and we`ll do some caroling

You will get a sentimental feeling When you hear voices singing
"Let`s be jolly; Deck the halls with boughs of holly" Rocking around the Christmas Tree
Have a happy holiday
Everyone`s dancing merrily
In a new old fashioned way
Rocking around the Christmas Tree
Rocking around the Christmas Tree
Let the Christmas Spirit ring
Later we`ll have some pumpkin pie
and we`ll do some caroling

You will get a sentimental feeling
When you hear voices singing
"Let`s be jolly; Deck the halls with boughs of holly"
Rocking around the Christmas Tree
Have a happy holiday
Everyone`s dancing merrily
In a new old fashioned way

I don`t want a lot for Christmas 
There`s just one thing I need 
I don`t care about the presents 
Underneath the Christmas tree 
I just want you for my own 
More than you could ever know 
Make my wish come true 
All I want for Christmas is ..... You 
I don`t want a lot for Christmas 
There`s just one thing I need 
I don`t care about the presents 
Underneath the Christmas tree 
I don`t need to hang my stocking 
There upon the fireplace 
Santa Claus won`t make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day 
I just want you for my own 
More than you could ever know 
Make my wish come true 
All I want for Christmas is you 
You baby 

ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU
LISTEN
All the lights are shining 
So brightly everywhere 
And the sound of children`s 
Laughter fills the air 
And everyone is singing 
I hear those sleigh bells ringing 
Santa won`t you bring me the one I really need 
Won`t you please bring my baby to me... 

Oh I don`t want a lot for Christmas 
This is all I`m asking for 
I just want to see my baby 
Standing right outside my door 
Oh I just want you for my own 
More than you could ever know 
Make my wish come true 
Baby all I want for Christmas is... 
You 

I won`t ask for much this Christmas 
I don`t even wish for snow 
I`m just gonna keep on waiting 
Underneath the mistletoe 
I won`t make a list and send it 
To the North Pole for Saint Nick 
I won`t even stay awake to 
Hear those magic reindeers click 
`Cause I just want you here tonight 
Holding on to me so tight 
What more can I do 
Baby all I want for Christmas is you 
Ooh baby 
[Chorus]
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year
To save me from tears
I`ll give it to someone special

Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance
But you still catch my eye
Tell me baby
Do you recognize me?
Well
It`s been a year
It doesn`t surprise me
I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying "merry Christmas"
I wrapped it up and sent it
Now I know what a fool I`ve been
But if you kissed me now
I know you`d fool me again

[Chorus]

A crowded room
Friends with tired eyes
I`m hiding from you
And your soul of ice
My god I thought you were
Someone to rely on
Me?
I guess I was a shoulder to cry on

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover but you tore me apart
Now I`ve found a real love you`ll never fool me again

[Chorus: x2]

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover buy you tore him apart
Maybe next year I`ll give it to someone
I`ll give it to someone special.
