(Isn’t It a Shame) Christmas Comes But Once a Year

[Intro]
Folks, I've got a little wish, if it only could come true
It's about a holiday that's meant for me and you
Although it has been coming on the same day each year
There should be one more day it could appear

[Verse 1]
Now. isn't it shame that Christmas comes
But once a year?
Wouldn't it be nice if it came around twice
Spreading joy and good cheer
Just when everyone forgets good will to men
That's the time for jingle bells to chime again
Now isn't it shame that Christmas comes
But once a year?

[Bridge]
Uncle Jimmy, Uncle Jimmy
Anna May, what arе you doing on the avenue alonе?
Christmas shopping
What's that in your arms
It's my Christmas present to you, a nice big fuzzy teddy bear
Ah, just what I needed, it's beautiful
I knew you'd like it
I love it
Look there's your teacher Mr. Randell
Merry Christmas, Jimmy
Merry Christmas, Mr. Randell
Hmm, hasn't got a beautiful Christmas tree?
Every Christmas tree is beautiful, Annabelle
Merry Christmas Jimmy
Merry Christmas
Gee, everybody seems so happy
Yes, that's right, everybody is happy

[Verse 2]
Now, isn't it shame that Christmas comes
But once a year?
Uncle Jimmy wouldn't be nice if it came around twice
That's right, Annabelle
Spreading hope and good cheer
Just when everyone forgets good will to men
That's the time for jingle bells to chime again
Now isn't it shame that Christmas comes
But once a year?
