lyrics

CREATURES ARE STIRRING

WHO SAYS THE CREATURES - WON'T BE STIRRING
IN THIS OLD HOUSE - COME CHRISTMAS
MAYBE IT'S TIME - THAT THE CHRISTMAS STORY
GOT A RE-WRITE - COS SOME OF IT AIN'T RIGHT
COS CREATURES ARE STIRRING - EVEN ON CHRISTMAS
IT'S JUST ANOTHER DAY - FOR ALL OF THE CREATURES
I HEAR 'EM IN THE WALLS - AND UP IN THE CEILING
IN THIS OLD HOUSE - COME CHRISTMAS

WHO SAYS THE CREATURES - WON'T BE STIRRING
I KNOW OF MANY - EVEN KNOW 'EM BY NAME
I HEAR 'EM ON THE ROOFTOP - AND UP IN THE CHIMNEY
AWAITIN' MILK AND COOKIES - WE ALWAYS LEAVE OUT

SO OLD SAINT NICK - IT'S TIME YOU ADMIT
WE SHARE THE WORLD WITH CREATURES - ALL THE YEAR LONG
IF YOU THINK THAT THEY'D STOP - FOR SANTA CLAUS
THAT RED-SUITED CLOWN - AW, C'MON
THE CREATURES ARE STIRRING - EVEN ON CHRISTMAS
YOU THINK THEY'D STOP - FOR SANTA CLAUS
I HEAR 'EM IN THE WALLS - UP IN THE CEILING
IN THIS OLD HOUSE - COME CHRISTMAS

THERE GOES A MOUSE - ACROSS THE FLOOR
AND IN THE WALLS - OF THIS OLD HOUSE
DOWN IN THE FLOORBOARDS - UP IN THE CHIMNEY
NESTING FOR WINTER - IN THIS OLD HOUSE
IN THE HALLWAYS - UP IN THE CEILING
CREATURES ARE STIRRING - IN THIS OLD HOUSE
