Thanks for Christmas,
Thank you for the love and happiness that's snowing down,
All around.
Thanks for Christmas,
Thank you for the winter friendliness that's snowing down,
All around the world.
It's nearer,
Children's eyes shine clearer now,
As they decorate the trees,
All across the seven seas.
It's nearer,
Yule log fires burn clearer now,
In the winter's frosty air,
Sing with us and we can share our...

Thanks for Christmas,
Thank you for the winter friendliness that's snowing down,
All around the world.
It's dawning,
Santa's reindeer yawning now,
All their festive work is done,
Filling houses up with fun.
It's dawning,
Here is Christmas morning now,
Greatest day of all the year,
Listen out and you will hear our...
Thanks for Christmas,
Thank you for the love and happiness that's snowing down,

Thanks for Christmas,
Thank you for the winter friendliness that's snowing down,
All around the world.
It's such a shame it's only one day every year,
Three hundred and sixty-four days full of doubts and fear
You've been saving your love up,
Let it out,
'Cause Christmas is here.
Thanks for Christmas,
Thank you for the love and happiness that's snowing down,
All around.
Thanks for Christmas,
Thank you for the winter friendliness that's snowing down,

Let's make it "The Three Wise Men (aka XTC)". They released the record with that pseudonym only once, but it's not like it's a big secret.
