Poured the goldfish bowl into daddy's hat,
Then I painted stripes on the family cat,
Broke two teeth only yesterday,
I'm the angel in the Christmas play

In department stores, do it "just because",
Pull the whiskers off of the Santy Claus,
I bite his leg and I run away,
I'm the angel in the Christmas play

Daddy laughs, he bends in half,
When I wear angel hair,
But wait until he takes a spill,
My halo's on the stair

Well, I gotta go, before the mailman stops,
And he feels that glue in the letter box,
See you all when it's Christmas Day,
I'm the angel in the Christmas play

Made a snowman holding a Christmas wreath,
Used my grandpa's specs, and my grandma's teeth
Cut the hair off my dad's toupee,
I'm the angel in the Christmas play

And in school today, brought a jar of ants,
You should see my teacher do a dance
Hope she don't take my part away,
I'm the angel in the Christmas play

I put on my angel gown,
And boy, did momma laugh,
She didn't guess, it was her best dress,
The one I cut in half

On the roof today, gave 'em all a scare,
I put on my wings, tried to fly through the air
Hope that bump's gonna go away,
I'm the angel in the Christmas play
