"Christmas Wrapping" is a bonus track from the Barbie: A Perfect Christmas soundtrack. It is sung by Allie Feder, the singing voice of Christie Clauson in the movie. The song was originally by The Waitresses and was released in 1981. The Barbie version of the song censored the word "damn".
Lyrics[]
Bah, humbug, no, that's too strong
'Cause it is my favourite holiday
But all this year's been a busy blur
Don't think I have the energy
To add to my already mad rush
Just 'cause it's 'tis the season
The perfect gift for me would be
Completions and connections left from
Last year, ski shop encounter, most interesting
Had his number, but never the time
Most of '81 passed along those lines so
Deck those halls, trim those trees
Raise up cups of Christmas cheer
I just need to catch my breath
Christmas by myself this year
Calendar picture, frozen landscape
Chilled this room for twenty-four days
Evergreens, sparkling snow
Get this winter over with
Flashback to springtime, saw him again
Would've been good to go for lunch
Couldn't agree, we were both free
We tried, we said we'd keep in touch
Didn't, of course, 'til summertime
Out to the beach to his boat, could I join him?
No, this time it was me
Sunburn in the third degree
Now the calendar's just one page
And, of course, I am excited
Tonight's the night, I've set my mind
Not to do too much about it
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas
But I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas
But I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas
But I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas
But I think I'll miss this one this year
Hardly dashing through the snow
'Cause I bundled up too tight
Last minute have-to-do's
A few cards, a few calls
Because it's R-S-V-P
No thanks, no party lights
It's Christmas Eve, gonna relax
Turned down all of my invites
Last fall I had a night to myself
Same guy called, Halloween party
Waited all night for him to show
This time his car wouldn't go
Forget it, it's cold, it's getting late
Trudge on home to celebrate
In a quiet way, unwind
Doing Christmas right this time
A&P has provided me
With the world's smallest turkey
Already in the oven, nice and hot
Oh, no, guess what I forgot?
So on with the boots, back out in the snow
To the only all-night grocery
When what to my wondering eye should appear
In the line is that guy I've been chasing all year
"I'm spending this one alone," he said
"Need a break; this year's been crazy,"
I said, "Me too, but why are you?
You mean you forgot cranberries too?"
The suddenly, we laughed and laughed
Caught on to what was happening
That Christmas magic's brought this tale
To a very happy ending
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
