We need a little Christmas now

ORIGINAL LYRICS:
Haul out the holly
Put up the tree before my spirit falls again
Fill up the stocking
I may be rushing things, but deck the halls again now
For we need a little Christmas - Right
this very minute
Candles in the window - Carols at the spinet
Yes, we need a little Christmas -
Right this very minute
It hasn't snowed a single flurry - But Santa, dear, we're in a hurry
So climb down the chimney
Put up the brightest string of lights I've ever seen
Slice up the fruitcake
It's time we hung some tinsel on that evergreen bough
For I've grown a little leaner,
grown a little colder
Grown a little sadder, grown a little older
And I need a little angel sitting on my shoulder
I need a little Christmas now
Haul out the holly
Well, once I taught you all to live each living day
Fill up the stocking
But Auntie Mame, it's one week past Thanksgiving Day now
So climb down the chimney
It's been a long time since I felt good, neighbourly
Slice up the fruitcake
It's time we hung some tinsel on that mayberry bough
For we need a little Christmas - Right
this very minute
Candles in the window - Carols at the spinet
And we need a little Christmas - Right
this very minute
We need a little Christmas now
We need a Christmas now - We need a little Christmas now - We need a little Christmas now
