Lyrics

Think of the pres ents you’re brought,

an y mer ry lit tle thought.

Think of Christ mas, think of snow; think of sleigh bells, here we go!

Like rein deer in the sky,

you can fly!

You can fly!

You can fly!

Soon you’ll zoom all a round the room, all it takes is faith and trust.

But the thing that’s a pos i tive must

is a lit tle bit of Pix ie Dust;

the dust is a pos i tive must.

When there’s a smile in your heart

there’s no bet ter time to start.

It’s a ver y sim ple plan.

You can do what bird ies can; at least it’s worth a try,

you can fly!

You can fly!

You can fly!
