Last night we were so gratefully treated to a live super rockin' version of "I Wish it Was Christmas Today" as Jimmy was joined by Horatio Sanz and The Stroke's own Julian Casablancas. Today we're bringing you the original "I Wish it Were Christmas Today" as seen on Saturday Night Live (and that Jimmy talked about last night.) Enjoy!
Another bonus! Here's a streaming audio .mp3 from last night's performance!
Read the lyrics after the jump.
I don't care what the neighbors say
Christmas time is near
I don't care what anyone says
Christmas is full of cheer
All I know is that Santa's sleigh
Is makin its way to the U.S.A.
I wish it was Christmas today
I wish it was Christmas today
I wish it was Christmas today, oh, oh
I wish it was Christmas today
I wish it was Christmas today, oh, oh
All I know is that Santa Claus
Don't care about breaking or applying laws
I wish it was, wish it was,
Wish it was, wish it was, oh
I don't care about anything else

Christmas is almost here
And I don't care what the news man said
Christmas is full of cheer
I don't care about anything
Except hearing those sleigh bells a'ring-a-ding, ding
I wish it was Christmas today
In the good old U.S. of A.
I wish it was Christmas today
I wish it was Christmas today, oh, oh
I wish it was Christmas today
I wish it was Christmas today, oh, oh
I'm telling ... to the boys and girls
In every nook and cranny of this crazy ass world
I want it, I want it,
I want it, I want it
