The Beatles - The Beatles’ Christmas Record lyrics

Good King Wenceslas looked out
On the feast of Stephen (Hoo)
As the slow ray round about
Deep and crisp and crispy
Brightly show the boot last night
On the mosty cruel
Henry Hall and David Lloyd betty Grable too

Hello, this is John, speaking with his voice
(Huh) We're all very happy to be able
To talk to you like this
On this little bit of plastic this
Record reaches you at the end
Of a really gear year for us
And it's all due to you when
We made our first record on Parlophone
Towards the end of 1962
We hoped everybody would like
What had already
Been our type of music for several
Years already, but we had no idea of all the


Gear things in store for us it
All happened really when Please
Please Me became
A number one hit, and after that, well cor'
The blimeys, heave the mo'! Our biggest
Thrill of the year, well
I suppose it must have
Been topping the bill at
The London Palladium and
Then, only a couple of days later
Being invited to take part in
The Royal Variety Show

This time last year
We were all dead chuffed because
"Love Me Do" got into the top twenty
And we can't believe really that so
Many things have happened in
Between already! Just before I pass
You over to Paul
(Arf-arf! Arf-arf) I'd like to say thank
You to all the Beatle people
Who have written to me during
The year and everyone who
Sent gifts and cards for my birthday
Which I'm trying to forget, in October
(Huh) I'd like to reply
Personally to everyone
But I just haven't enough
Pens in the meantime:

Garry Crimble to you garry Mimble to you
Getty Bable, dear Christmas
Happy Birthday me too

This is Paul here everything that
John said goes for me
Too, 'specially the bit about birthday
Cards and the parcels
'cause all our homes and offices got
Stacks of mail last June, ow! Ha! Ha!
When it was my birthday anyway
We're all dead pleased by the way
You've treated us in 1963
And we'll try to do everything
We can to please you
With the type of songs we write
And record next year oh yeah, somebody asked
Us if we still like Jelly Babies
Well! We used to like them
In fact we loved them
And said so in one of the
Papers, you see ever since then
We've been getting
Them in boxes, packets and crates anyway
We've gone right off Jelly Babies, you see
But we still like peppermint creams
And chocolate drops and
Dolly mixtures and all that sort of thing

Yes! Yes! Oh yes!
Well, lots of people asked us what
We enjoy best, you see
Concerts and television or recording? We
Like doing stage shows 'cause
It's, you know, it's great to hear an
Audience enjoying themselves
But the thing we like best
I think so anyway
Is going into the recording studio

Yes, we enjoy that very kindly!
To make new records
Which is what we've been doing all day
Before we started on this special
Message well, eh, what we like to hear most
Is one of our songs, you know
Taking shape in
A recording studio, ah, one of the ones
What John and I have written
And then listening to the
Tapes afterwards to hear how
It all worked out
You see well, I'm running over my time
And people are telling me to stop and Ringo

Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop shouting
Those animals!

So I'll finish off now with it
Wishing everyone Happy Crimble and a
Merry New Year and especially all the
Ones who paid the subscription

Ja, das wird uns danke schon
Und denn gruss von even
Ja, denn gruss von even schon
Ja, das wird wunderschon, boy danke schon

Ja, Ringo!

Hello, Ringo here

Beatles i started to play drums
In the group 1962, ha ha ha! Have been in
A couple of other groups

Happy, go on, for Christmas, christmas)

Merry, Happy New Year, and folks
Happy Christmas and may
May everything you wish be granted
(Sing, sing us Wenceslas, King Wenceslas)

Deep and crisp and even (Oh yeah)

Hooray!

Not to mention Freda Kelly in Liverpool
(Good old Freda) So on behalf of us all
I'd just

Long time, 'cause it's gonna

And I'd just like to say:

Brightly was the shone that night
Though the winter cruel
When a pork pie came inside
Gathering winter cruel

Had a very shiny nose (A shiny nose)
When ev'rybody picked it

Ha, ha, ha, ha

Oh yeah! Oh!

Rudolph, the red nosed Ringo (Rudolph)
Had a very shiny nose
Merry Christmas everybody!
