It was December 24th on Hollis Ave after dark |
| [00:33.82] |
When I seen a man chilling with his dog in the park |
| [00:36.31] |
I approached very slowly with my heart full of fear |
| [00:38.75] |
Looked at his dog, oh my God, an ill reindeer |
| [00:41.64] |
But then I was illin' because the man had a beard |
| [00:43.88] |
And a bag full of goodies, 12 o'clock had neared |
| [00:46.44] |
So I turned my head a second and the man had gone |
| [00:48.91] |
But he left his driver's wallet smack dead on the lawn |
| [00:51.45] |
I picket the wallet up but then I took a pause |
| [00:53.96] |
Took out the license and it cold said "Santa Claus" |
| [00:56.55] |
A million dollars in it, cold hundreds of G's |
| [00:59.07] |
Enough to buy a boat and matching car with ease |
| [01:01.69] |
But I'd never steal from Santa, cause that ain't right |
| [01:04.11] |
So I'm going home to mail it back to him that night |
| [01:06.61] |
But when I got home I bugged, cause under the tree |
| [01:09.08] |
Was a letter from Santa and all the dough was for me |
| [01:21.01] |
It's Christmas time in Hollis, Queens |
| [01:24.36] |
Mom's cooking chicken and collard greens |
| [01:26.90] |
Rice and stuffing, macaroni and cheese |
| [01:29.38] |
And Santa put gifts under Christmas trees |
| [01:31.96] |
Decorate the house with lights at night |
| [01:34.35] |
Snow's on the ground, snow white so bright |
| [01:36.91] |
In the fireplace is the yule log |
| [01:39.40] |
Beneath the mistletoe as we drink eggnog |
| [01:42.11] |
The rhymes you hear are the rhymes of Darryl's |
| [01:44.71] |
But each and every year we bust Christmas carols |
| [02:01.56] |
Rhymes so loud and proud you hear it |
| [02:04.80] |
It's Christmas time and we got the spirit |
| [02:07.14] |
Jack Frost chillin', the hawk is out |
| [02:09.73] |
And that's what Christmas is all about |
| [02:12.15] |
The time is now, the place is here |
| [02:14.80] |
And the whole wide world is filled with cheer |
| [02:17.26] |
My name's D.M.C. with the mic in my hand |
| [02:19.68] |
And I'm chilling and coolin' just like a snowman |
| [02:22.36] |
So open your eyes, lend us an ear |
| [02:24.72] |
We want to say |
| [02:25.50] |
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! |
| [02:28.95] |
