[verse1]
Pretty lights that twinkle,
Pretty lights that shine,
I see them up and down the block,
On every house but mine.

I see thousand-watt winter scene,
Dancing in her head,
Mind as well get ready,
Here comes the job I dread.

[chorus]
Riggin' up the lights,
Riggin' up the lights,
First you have to separate the reds and green and whites,

Riggin' up the lights,
Riggin up the lights,
Looks like I'll be spending all of my December nights,

oooooooohhhhh,
Riggin' up the lights.

[verse2]
Now, I think more is better,
So it never fails,
I stock up for the next year at,
The after Christmas sales.

I don't mean to be a Scrooge,
The kids sure love the thrill,
Still, I can't help but think about,
Our next electric bill.

[chorus]
Riggin' up the lights, (I'm riggin' up)
Riggin' up the lights, (up the lights)
You can see our front yard from some weather satellites.

Riggin' up the lights, (I'm riggin')
Riggin up the lights, (up the lights)
I don't want to be up here, cause I'm afraid of heights.

oooooooohhhhh,
Riggin' up the lights.

[bridge]
Waiting like a box of snakes all tangled up no doubt,
When one bulb blows,
Another goes,
Next thing you know the whole stinken strand goes out.

[chorus]
Riggin' up the lights, (I'm busy riggin')
Climbing higher heights, (up the lights)
Here up on the roof I feel like Superman in tights.

Riggin' up the lights, (around the mailbox)
Riggin' up the lights, (upon the tree top)
All is bright and sparkle, for a moment all is right.

oooooooohhhhh,
Riggin' up the lights.

[bridge]
Twinkle, twinkle, lights aglow,
How you glisten in the snow,

People stop to talk and go,
Point at our electric show.

Now you're up and pretty cheer,
Why not leave you up all year?

[chorus]
Riggin' up the lights,
Riggin' up the lights,
First you have to separate the reds and green and whites,

Riggin' up the lights,
Riggin up the lights,
Looks like I'll be spending all of my December nights,

Riggin' up the lights, (I'm riggin' up)
Riggin' up the lights, (up the lights)
You can see out front yard from some weather satellites.

Riggin' up the lights, (I'm riggin')
Riggin up the lights, (up the lights)
I don't want to be up here, cause I'm afraid of heights.

oooooooohhhhh,
Riggin' up the lights.
