O Tannenbaum!
O Tannenbaum
O TannenBOOM!
You’re far too loud
for our living room.
O Tannenbaum
O TannenBASH!
You make glass baubles
crash and smash.
O Tannenbaum
O TannenBEEP!
You scare the magi
and the sheep.
O Tannenbaum
O TannenBANG!
You’re my favourite
Christmas thang.
O TannenBOOM!
You’re far too loud
for our living room.
O Tannenbaum
O TannenBASH!
You make glass baubles
crash and smash.
O Tannenbaum
O TannenBEEP!
You scare the magi
and the sheep.
O Tannenbaum
O TannenBANG!
You’re my favourite
Christmas thang.
