(Verse 1) Snow is falling on the arcade glow Pac-Man ghosts in the window, dancing slow I’ve got my Walkman, cassette on side A Playing Wham! while the city turns to red and green today (Pre-Chorus) Keytar solo in the mall, Santa’s rocking leather Mom’s got shoulder pads bigger than the weather Turn the Fairlight up, let’s make the season bright (Chorus) Turn it up, feel the glow Snow is falling on the video snow Hearts are racing in stereo We’re lost in the flash of the Christmas show (Oh-oh-oh) Neon Christmas! (Oh-oh-oh) Midnight desire! Under the laser sky, we’re burning higher This is our neon Christmas, set the night on fire! (Verse 2) MTV’s playing “Do They Know It’s Christmas?” again But we’re too busy spiking the punch with cinnamon Roller rink Santa drops in with a boombox spin Doing the moonwalk on ice while the lasers kick in (Pre-Chorus 2) Reverb snare cracking like a New Year’s cheer Everybody’s hair is three feet in the air Crank the DX7, let’s make the season bright (Chorus) Turn it up, feel the glow Snow is falling on the video snow Hearts are racing in stereo We’re lost in the flash of the Christmas show (Oh-oh-oh) Neon Christmas! (Oh-oh-oh) Midnight desire! Under the laser sky, we’re burning higher This is our neon Christmas, set the night on fire! (Bridge – talkbox solo) “Merry Christmas, darling… yeah… in electric dreams…” (Key change + final chorus) Neon lights! (Higher now!) Christmas night! Jingle bells through a vocoder sound just right We’ll stay up till the sunrise, future’s looking bright ’Cause every day feels like Christmas in neon lights! (Whoa-oh-oh) Neon lights! (Whoa-oh-oh) Forever Christmas night! (Outro – fading synth arpeggios) Have a totally tubular Christmas… yeah… See you in ’86, baby…
