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,

Im gettin nuttin for Christmas
Mommy and Daddy are mad.
Im 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.

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.

So better be good whatever you do,
Cause if youre bad, Im warning you,
Youll get nuttin for Christmas.
