Lyrics and Makaton Sign Transcription:

The mood is right (FEEL / PERFECT)
The spirits up (HAPPY)
We're here tonight (HERE / TONIGHT)
And that's enough (OKAY)

Simply having a wonderful Christmas time (WONDERFUL / CHRISTMAS / TIME)
Simply having a wonderful Christmas time

The party's on (PARTY)
The feeling's here (FEEL / NOW)
That only comes (HAPPEN)
This time of year (TIME / YEAR)

Simply having a wonderful Christmas time (WONDERFUL / CHRISTMAS / TIME)
Simply having a wonderful Christmas time

The choir of children sing their song (SING / CHILDREN / SING)
Ding dong, ding dong (CHURCH BELLS)
Ding dong, ding ohhhh
Ohhhhhhh

Simply having a wonderful Christmas time
Simply having a wonderful Christmas time

The word is out (TALK)
About the town (TOWN)
To lift a glass (TO DRINK)
Ahhh don't look down (NO / SAD)

Simply having a wonderful Christmas time
Simply having a wonderful Christmas time

The choir of children sing their song
They practiced all year long
Ding dong, ding dong
Ding dong, ding dong
Ding dong, ding dong

The party's on
The spirits up
We're here tonight
And that's enough

Simply having a wonderful Christmas time
Simply having a wonderful Christmas time

The mood is right
The spirits up
We're here tonight
And that's enough

Simply having a wonderful Christmas time
Simply having a wonderful Christmas time
Simply having a wonderful Christmas time
Simply having a wonderful Christmas time

Ohhhhhhhhh
Ohhhhhhhhh
