He's several hours late 
The skyline's getting dim 
While others deck the halls 
You dream of decking him My 
My choice in men has always been 
Pathetic, I suppose 
The guy who stole my credit cards 
The guy who tried on my clothes 
And so a row of self-help books 
Line my bedroom shelf 
Well there's one rule those books forgot 
You never fall in love with an elf 
His endless talk of Christmastown 
Will test your every nerve 
Still, he's kinda cute, I guess 
Well, if you grade on a curve 
And though you vowed you'd never sing 
Just look at yourself 
You're halfway through a Christmas song 
Called "Never Fall in Love with an Elf" 
The holidays will seem bittersweet
While you're alone in bed 
But how can one girl ever compete 
With a magic fat guy in a flying sled? 
Go ask a hundred single girls 
From here to Philadel. . . phia 
They'll say it's clear as day 
You're in for sleepless nights 
If you date a guy 
Who has a thing for tights 
Oh, never fall in love 
Never fall in love 
Never  
Fall in 
Love 
With an 
Elf 
It's as clear as a jinglebell 
If you are single  
Well, don't fall in love with an elf
