Carols sing of Christmas snow, but itÕs backwards down below.

Christmas comes in summer there.  Making for a different feeling in the airÉ

 

The temperature is rising fast, everyone is all aghast,

The holiday spirit can not last Ōcuz weÕre having a heat wave for Christmas.

 

Winter clothes are packed away as weÕre approaching Christmas day.

It looks like summerÕs here to stay Ōcuz weÕre having a heat wave for Christmas.

 

No sense looking for a snowy view as IÕm sparking up the barbeque.

Go out shopping if you have the notion, just use lots of sun tan lotion.

 

ThereÕs no way that weÕll conspire with chestnuts roasting on a fire.

I am starting to perspire, cuz weÕre having a heat wave for Christmas.

 

Thanksgiving day has come and gone. The Christmas seasonÕs now upon,

But I must go and mow the lawn Ōcuz weÕre having a heat wave for Christmas.

 

There wonÕt be any snowball fights as IÕm stringing up the Christmas lights.

I donÕt need a coat to keep me warm, look out! Here comes a thunderstorm.

 

Eggnog is the drink for me when outside falling snow I see,

But all I want is a tall iced teaŌcuz weÕre having a heat wave for Christmas.

 

Shoveling snow can be the pits, but itÕs better than a schvitz.

I donÕt know how IÕll keep my wits Ōcuz weÕre having a heat wave for Christmas.

 

Santa is coming in his sleigh. ItÕs warm and sunny all the way.

No, those arenÕt reindeer clip-clops ItÕs everybody walking in flip-flops.

 

IÕm really feeling out of sorts. ThereÕs no snow for Winter sports.

SantaÕs wearing Bermuda shorts Ōcuz weÕre having a heat wave for Christmas.

 

The seasons are all upside down. My plastic snowman wears a frown.

My Christmas tree is turning brown Ōcuz weÕre having a heat wave for Christmas.

 

WeÕre having a heat wave. A tropical heat wave.

ItÕs gonna be hot if we like it or not,

WeÕre having a heck of a heat wave for Christmas!
