VERSE 1:

Ashley, What would you like for Christmas?

Mommy, I’d like a new dolly for Christmas,
And some pretty little ribbons for my hair,  
(Well of course dear)

A bunch of new clothes and those sneakers with the pump,
I could use at least a couple more pair, 
(Well, maybe one...)

That game with Turbo Graphics, I can’t remember the name,
But you se it all the time on TV, 
(That's a little expensive...)

It’s only two hundred dollars and my old game is boring, 
Can’t you afford to take care of me? 
(Well of course I can dear)

My TV’s too small it doesn’t even have a remote,
And I want my own VCR too, 
(Honey...)
When we go to Dad’s, he gets us anything we want, 
(I'll bet!)
Are you going to let him do that to you? 
(Ashley!)

CHORUS:

Christmas is coming twice this year, once with Mommy, then again with Dad,
They feel real crummy ‘cause they split up, I’ll get more presents than I’ve ever had,
Grandparents falling all over themselves, to get me something really rad, 
Christmas is coming twice this year and all I’ve got to do is try and look sad,

VERSE 2:

Brandon, What would you like for Christmas?

Dad, what I want for Christmas is a new pocketknife,
And a book on how to tie knots
(OK Son)

A bunch of comics and some of those magazines, (magazines?)
Just like my friend Tommy has got
(Wait, what magazines?)

A sling shot or a 22, no, what I need is an Uzi
(Huh?)
With a night scope and a bayonet,
Nun-chucks, grenades, a bazooka, a flame-thrower and a tank 
(Now, now, son!)
And a bunch of stuff I haven’t even thought of yet
(We'll have to see about that!)

All Mom’s gonna get me is a stupid new computer,
She says that violent stuff warps my head,
(Well...)
She never lets us watch any slasher movies, like you do Dad,
You know, sometimes I wish she were dead!
(Brandon!)

CHORUS:

Christmas is coming twice this year, once with Mommy, then again with Dad,
They feel real crummy ‘cause they split up, I’ll get more presents than I’ve ever had,
Grandparents falling all over themselves, to get me something really rad, 
Christmas is coming twice this year and all I’ve got to do is try and look sad,
