Lyrics
Everybody stops and stares at me
These two teeth are gone as you can see
I don’t know just who to blame
For this catastrophe
But my one wish on Christmas Eve
Is as plain as it can be
Chorus
All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth
My two front teeth, see my two front teeth
Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth
Then I could wish you “Merry Christmas”
It seems so long since I could say
“Sister Susie sitting on a thistle”
Gosh oh gee, how happy I’d be
If I could only whistle (thhh)
All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth
My two front teeth, see my two front teeth
Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth
Then I could wish you “Merry Christmas”
