lyrics

When I paint my Christmas scene
Use green and gold for my Christmas tree
Cadmium red for Rudolph’s nose
Burnt Umber on the mistletoe
All my palette knifes are candy canes
My turpentine is hot toddies
We’ll hear carolers all night long
As we gather round to sing some songs
We’ll go:

Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Holidays
Jingle Jingle Jingle Jingle Bells
Deck Deck Deck Deck Deck Deck the Halls
When I paint
When I paint my Christmas scene

All my canvas is ribbon & bows
I’ve been bad but Santa knows
Mixing eggnog with brandy
Peanut brittle and archive sleeves
All my brushes are fallen snow
Indian yellow for the fire’s glow
My portfolio is sleds and sleighs
And I can name every reindeer’s name
It goes:

Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, and Vixen
Comet, Cupid, Donner, and Blitzen
Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer we’ll all sing
When I paint
When I paint my Christmas scene

Bridge-ish:

When it dries…Happy New Year!

When I paint my Christmas scene
I’m gonna show my whole family
It’s the love that will make it glow
It’s my friends that will make the show
We’ll sing:

Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Holidays
Jingle Jingle Jingle Jingle Bells
Joy Joy Joy Joy Joy to the world
