Christmas in Hollis - Voices of Christmas

It was December 24th on Hollis Ave after dark

When I see a man chilling with his dog in the park

I approached very slowly with my heart full of fear

Looked at his dog oh my god an illin reindeer

But then I was illin because the man had a beard

And a bag full of goodies 12 o'clock had neared

So I turned my head a second

And the man had gone

But he must have dropped

His wallet smack down on the lawn

I picket the wallet up then I took a pause

Took out the license and it cold said Santa claus

A million dollars in it cold hundreds of g's

Enough to buy a boat and matching car with ease

But I'd never steal from Santa cause that ain't right

So I was going home to mail it back to him that night

But when I got home I bugged cause under the tree

Was a letter from Santa and the dough's for me

It's Christmas time in Hollis queens

Mom's cooking chicken and collard greens

Rice and stuffing macaroni and cheese

And Santa put gifts under Christmas trees

Decorate the house with lights at night

Snow's on the ground snow white so bright

In the fireplace is the yule log

Beneath the mistle toe as we drink egg nog

The rhymes that you hear are the rhymes of darryl's

But each and every year

We bust Chrsitmas carols

Rhymes so loud and proud you hear it

It's Christmas time and we got the spirit

Jack Frost chillin the orchids out

And that's what Christmas is all about

The time is now the place is here

And the whole wide world is filled with cheer

My name's DMC with the mic in my hand

And I'm chilling and cooling

Just like a snowman

So open your eyes lend us an ear

We want to say Merry Christmas

And happy new year
