Bah, hum bug!
No, that’s too strong ’cause it is my fa v’rite hol i day.
But all this year’s been a bus y blur.
Don’t think I have the en er gy to add to my al read y mad rush just ’cause it is the sea son.
The per fect gift for me would be com ple tions and con nec tions left from last year, ski shop en coun ter, most in t’rest ing.
Had his num ber, but nev er the time.
Most of eight y one passed a long those lines.
So, deck those halls, trim those trees.
Raise up cups of Christ mas cheer.
I just need to catch my breath.
Christ mas by my self this year.
Cal en dar pic ture, fro zen land scape, chilled this room for twen ty four days.
Ev er greens, spar kl ing snow, get this win ter o ver with!
Flash back to spring time, saw him a gain.
Would ’ve been good to go for lunch.
Could n’t a gree we’re both free.
We tried, we said we’d keep in touch.
Did n’t, of course, till sum mer time, out to the beach to his boat, could I join him?
No, this time it was me.
Sun burn in the third de gree.
Now the cal en dar’s just one page, of course I am ex cit ed.
To night’s the night, I set my mind not to do too much a bout it.
Mer ry Christ mas, Mer ry Christ mas, but I think I’ll miss this one this year.
Mer ry Christ mas, Mer ry Christ mas, but I think I’ll miss this one this year.
Mer ry Christ mas, Mer ry Christ mas, but I think I’ll miss this one this A & P has pride in me with the world’s small est tur key.
Al read y in the ov en, nice and hot.
Oh, damn!
Guess what I for got!
So on with the boots, back out in the snow to the on ly all night gro cer y.
When what to my won der ing eyes should ap pear?
In the line is that guy I’ve been chas in’ all year!
“I’m spend ing this one a lone,” he said.
“Need a break, this year’s been cra zy.” I said, “Me too, but what are you...
you mean you for got cran ber ries too?” Then sud den ly we laughed and laughed, caught on to what was hap pen ing.
That Christ mas mag ic’s brought this tale to a ver y hap py end ing.
Mer ry Christ mas, Mer ry Christ mas.
Could n’t miss this one this year.
Mer ry Christ mas, Mer ry Christ mas.
Could n’t miss this one this year.
Mer ry Christ mas, Mer ry Christ mas.
Could n’t miss this one this year.

About “Christmas Wrapping”

- What key is "Christmas Wrapping" by The Waitresses played in?
- Christmas Wrapping is arranged in the key of C on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.

- The arrangement plays at 180 BPM. Use the speed control (10-200%) to practice slower or play faster.
- Is "Christmas Wrapping" easy to play on piano?
- Yes — this is one of our beginner-friendly arrangements with simplified chords and color-coded notes.
- Can I download sheet music for "Christmas Wrapping"?
- Yes — registered users can download PDF sheet music, plus MIDI and MusicXML files for use in other notation software.
- Who composed "Christmas Wrapping"?

- Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
- Yes — "Christmas Wrapping" is rendered at engraver quality (the Verovio engine, the same toolkit RISM and OpenScore editions use) from the original publisher MusicXML. You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature C, time signature, beams, dynamics — everything a printed sheet music book would have. Great for piano students learning to read music properly.
- What's the difference between Sheet Music and the other modes here?
- Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.
- Can I practice from this view at my own pace?
- Yes — slow the tempo from 180 BPM down (or up) without changing the pitch. The score scrolls in time and the currently playing note is highlighted, so you can drill a tough bar at half speed and bump it up once it feels comfortable.
- Why can I click a note in the score?
- Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
- Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
- Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
