Let’s go for a sleigh ride! A wonderful sleigh ride!  
Come hurry along with a song in a wintery world to glide.

And the snow is coming down,  
On our New England town.  
And it’s been falling all day long  
What else is new?  
What can I do?  
I wrote a valley winter song,  
To play for you.

Tonight while the lights are shinin’ and the microphone is on, I’ll play for you.  
So many will be the blessings and so short will the time, I’ll stay with you.  
But I’ll play for you, I love you yes I do. You can say that I’m your friend,  
You can see my life begin and end. I’ll always play for you.

Just another night, hung down slow  
I don’t like the hotel, let me go!  
Hells bells! Give me a chance!  
This rock ‘n’ roller don’t wanna dance  
Well, it’s just another night on the other side of life.

It’s a Saturday night at the world  
And I’m thinking about a girl  
And how useless to search it becomes  
When you find all the answers in one.

I see leaves of green, red roses too,  
I see them bloom for me and you,  
And I tell myself,  
What a wonderful world.

It’s a beautiful world we live in  
A sweet romantic place  
Beautiful people everywhere  
The way they show they care  
Makes me want to say

It’s a beautiful world  
It’s a beautiful world  
It’s a beautiful world  
For you, for you, for you

It’s a wonderful time to be here  
It’s nice to be alive  
Wonderful people everywhere  
The way they comb their hair  
Makes me want to say

It’s a wonderful place  
It’s a wonderful place  
It’s a wonderful place  
For you, for you, for you

Alice in Wonderland  
How do you get to wonderland  
Over the hill or underland  
or just behind the tree

When clouds go rolling by  
They roll away and leave the sky  
Where is the land beyond the eye  
That people cannot see

Where can it be?

The second star to the right  
Shines in the night for you  
To tell you that the dreams you plan  
Really can come true  
The second star to the right  
Shines with a light that’s rare  
And if it’s Never Land you need  
It’s light will lead you there.

Well, I jumped up, turned around, spit in the air, fell on the ground and asked him which was the way back home  
He said, “Take a right at the light, keep goin’ straight until night, and then, boy, you’re on your own”  
And now in Zanzibar, a shootin’ star was ridin’ in a side car, hummin’ a lunar tune  
Yes, and the avatar said, “Blow the bar but first remove the cookie jar, we’re gonna teach those boys to laugh too soon”  
And some kidnapped handicap was complainin’ that he caught the clap from some mousetrap he bought last night  
Well, I unsnapped his skull cap and between his ears I saw a gap but figured he’d be all right

Madman drummers bummers, Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat  
In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat  
With a boulder on my shoulder, feelin’ kinda older,  
I tripped the merry-go-round  
With this very unpleasin’, sneezin’ and wheezin,  
the calliope crashed to the ground  
Now Scott with a slingshot finally found a tender spot and throws his lover in the sand  
And some bloodshot forget-me-not said daddy’s within earshot save the buckshot, turn up the band  
Some silicone sister with a manager mister told me I go what it takes  
She said “I’ll turn you on sonny to something strong”

Simple sister  
Got whooping cough  
Have to burn her toys  
Take her treats  
Eat her sweets  
Scare off all the boys

Candy on the beach, there’s nothing better  
But I like candy when it’s wrapped in a sweater  
Some day soon I’ll make you mine  
Then I’ll have candy all the time

I want candy  
I want candy
