I Hate Christmas Lyrics - Sesame Street

I can't think of anything that's dumber 

To a grouch, Christmas is a bummer! 

Beaming faces everywhere, happiness is in the air 

I'm telling you, it isn't fair! 

I hate Christmas! 

People loaded with good will, giving presents, what a thrill 

That slushy nonsense makes me ill 

I hate Christmas! 

I'd rather have a holiday like normal grouches do 

Instead of getting presents, they take presents back from you 

Heh heh 

Here comes Santa, girls and boys 

So, who needs that big red noise! 

I'll tell him where to put his toys 

I hate Christmas! 

(spoken): And if you want the truth, I ain't so crazy about Thanksgiving or Labour Day either! 

Christmas carols to be sung, decorations to be hung 

Oh, yeah? Well, I stick out my tongue! 

I hate Christmas! 

Christmas bells play loud and strong 

Hurts my ears, all that ding dong 

Besides it goes on much too long 

I hate Christmas! 

I'd rather have a holiday with a lot less joy and flash 

With a lot less cheerful smiling, and a lot more dirty trash, yeah! 

Christmas Day is almost here 

When it's over, then I cheer 

I'm glad it's only once a year 

I hate Christmas!
