You poured the brandy, baby, dressed the tree
I got the table looking Christmassy
Wrapped up presents, lit all the lights up, it's true

What can be wrong with all this right?
Somebody's light is not so bright
One thing here could use some cheer, and that's you

Ah, because everyone you know and everyone you don't
Are wearing Christmas sweaters, so it's crazy that you won't

Ah, put your Christmas sweater on, it's got to be done
The uglier, the better, hon', don't be the only one
You'll light up everybody's faces
And, babe, you know the time has come
(Come on, come on, come on)
Play along, play along and get your Christmas sweater on

It doesn't matter if you don't look cool
Everybody's following the Christmas rule
Remember December, forget everything that you know

Oh, you gotta try to put your pride on pause
Show a little reindeer or some Santa Claus
Ain't no hiding, time has come to go

To get your sweater, baby, 'cause I just can't wait
So come and join the party now before it gets too late, yeah

Ah, put your Christmas sweater on, it's got to be done
Oh, the uglier, the better, hon', don't be the only one
You'll light up everybody's faces
And, babe, you know the time has come
(Come on, come on, come on)
Play along, play along and get your Christmas sweater on

Oh, let's go
Yeah, babe

Ah, put your Christmas sweater on, it's got to be done (put it on, put it on)
Oh, the uglier, the better, hon', don't be the only one
You'll light up everybody's faces
And, babe, you know the time has come
(Come on, come on, come on)
Play along, play along and get a Christmas sweater on
