I broke my bat on Johnnys head;
Somebody snitched on me.
I hid a frog in sisters bed;
Somebody snitched on me.
I Spilled some ink on Mommys rug;
I made Tommy eat a bug;
Bought some gum with a penny slug;
Somebody snitched on me. Oh,

[Chorus:] I'm gettin? Nuttin? For Christmas;
Mommy and Daddy are mad.
I'm gettin? Nuttin? For Christmas,
Cause I aint been nuttin? But bad.

I put a tack in my teachers chair;
Somebody snitched on me.
I tied a knot in Susies hair;
Somebody snitched on me.
I did a dance on Mommys plants,
Climbed a tree and tore my pants,
Filled the sugar bowl with ants;
Somebody snitched on me.

[Chorus:] I'm gettin? Nuttin? For Christmas;
Mommy and Daddy are mad.
I'm gettin? Nuttin? For Christmas,
Cause I aint been nuttin? But bad.

I wont be seeing Santa Claus;
Somebody snitched on me.
He wont come visit me because
Somebody snitched on me.
Next year Ill be going straight;
Next year Ill be good, just wait;
Id start now but its too late;
Somebody snitched on me.

[Chorus:] I'm gettin? Nuttin? For Christmas;
Mommy and Daddy are mad.
I'm gettin? Nuttin? For Christmas,
Cause I aint been nuttin? But bad.

So better be good whatever you do,
Cause if youre bad, I'm warning you,
Youll get nuttin? For Christmas.
