Mint-cool midnight, moonlight on the rooftops Swim down cobblestones full of snow and stardrops Big Apple Tabernacle Choir singing fa la la Eight more shopping days 'til the brouhaha Candy taste with every breath I take Exhale an icy mist of crystal in my wake But the peppermint tingle I'm feeling in my soul Is the candy-cane swirl of a world out of control . . . If you're stranded in the snowstorm you're not the only one Deep down inside you there shines a loving sun Take these days to rediscover what makes life worthwhile Show me your Saturnalia smile I had a dream, circa Urban Millennium Whole world waitin' by the fire for the Fat Man to come But the Fat Man was fillin' in at the radio station Sending out some stereophonic transubstantiation The Whole World Waitin' was getting all upset Thinkin' talkin' screamin' bout those gifts they didn't get Now I'm not one to tell somebody how to live But what about those gifts that are uniquely yours to give? If you're stranded in the snowstorm you're not the only one Deep down inside you there shines a loving sun Take these days to rediscover what makes life worthwhile Show me your Saturnalia smile
