Lyrics
Verse 1
Fires crackle wild in the mountain town
Footsteps echo, turning smiles to frowns
Tales get swapped by the lantern’s light
Of a horned old stranger roaming late at night
Pre-Chorus
Shadow on the hillside sharp as a tack
He’s watchin’ your doorstep, just checkin’ the facts
Chorus
Here comes old Krampus down the lane
Sack on his back and a jingle bell chain
He’s got a laugh and a sprig of pine
He’s crashin’ your party by wintertime
Post-Chorus
Hey, hey, it’s Krampus Day
Ho ho, better not play
Verse 2
Snow falls heavy on the crooked road
Boots and fur, it’s a frosty load
Children peek from candlelight
Better be good or he’ll visit tonight
Pre-Chorus
Red suit’s for Santa, but Krampus wears black
Bringing some mischief in his burlap sack
Chorus
Here comes old Krampus down the lane
Sack on his back and a jingle bell chain
He’s got a laugh and a sprig of pine
He’s crashin’ your party by wintertime
Post-Chorus
Hey, hey, it’s Krampus Day
Ho ho, better not play
Verse 3
Cinders and laughter spin through the air
Even the bravest won’t risk a dare
Stockings shiver hung high and neat
As Krampus comes stompin’ down the snowy street
Pre-Chorus
Windows are rattlin’, wind’s got a bite
No hiding from Krampus when he visits tonight
Chorus
Here comes old Krampus down the lane
Sack on his back and a jingle bell chain
He’s got a laugh and a sprig of [Post-Chorus]
Hey, hey, it’s Krampus Day
Ho ho, better not play
Outro
So hang your wishes, hope you behave
Or you’ll
Outro
So hang your wishes, hope you behave
Or you’ll hear those hoofbeats far away
Raise a toast to the long, cold night
And Krampus keepin’ the stories alive
