You Ain't Getting Nothin'
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's the night before Christmas and you're lying in bed
Visions of presents dance in your nasty little head
Look like an angel, you're a devil instead
You're gonna pay for all the things you said
(I'll tell you why)
You picked Santa's pocket and you stole his reindeer
You're only eight years old, I caught you drinking beer
You paint the cat red and pierced the dog's ear
You ain't getting nothin' this year
I truly feel for your current circumstance
You think I'm giving in, you ain't got a chance
You know I love you but you drive me insane
Chaos is your middle name
You ain't gеtting nothin' (you ain't getting nothin')
You ain't getting nothin' (you ain't getting nothin')
Your crocodilе tears are so insincere
You ain't getting nothin' this year
I said ho, ho, ho (ho, ho, ho)
I said no, no, no (no, no, no)
Ho, ho, ho (ho, ho, ho)
You ain't getting nothin' this year
It's a silent night but you won't stop talkin'
Don't be surprised if you get coal in your stockin'
You think the season's merry but you better think twice
You ain't getting nothin' this year
You ain't getting nothin' (you ain't getting nothin')
You ain't getting nothin' (you ain't getting nothin')
When you fall asleep I whisper in your ear
You ain't getting nothing this year
I said ho, ho, ho (ho, ho, ho)
I said no, no, no (no, no, no)
I said ho, ho, ho (ho, ho, ho)
You ain't getting nothin' this year
You ain't getting nothin' (you ain't getting nothin')
You ain't getting nothin' (you ain't getting nothin')
No candy canes and no Christmas cheer
You ain't getting nothing this year
