I Always Get Emotional at Christmas Time



"I Always Get Emotional at Christmas Time" is the villain song from An All Dogs Christmas Carol. It is sung by Carface Carruthers's sidekick Killer about how he enjoys celebrating Christmas and Belladonna about how she enjoys making Christmas miserable, while Sasha (as The Ghost of Christmas Present) shows Carface what is happening to someone other than him in the present. It is reprised by Carface himself when Timmy's family is shown to be understanding and they do not eject him from unintentionally breaking a china plate of cookies.

Original Version
Killer: I always get emotional at Christmas time That heavenly time of year. Whether I'm home with friends Or out there bustin' heads, I'm blinkin' back a sad or happy tear. On February, I start seein' red and green Brass knuckles tied up in bows. It's like a herd of tiny reindeer Is prancin' 'round my heart, And I become the me that nobody knows.

I laugh. I cry. I totally lose my cool. Oh, me! Oh, my! I'm a Yuletide fool! This eggnog is so creamy (mmm) It oughta be a crime. I always get emotional at Christmas time.

Tell old Saint Nicky I'm feelin' awful icky About the naughty stuff I did (I'm so ashamed!) After a beatin', I'll find myself repeatin', "Say 'Hi' to the wife and kid... Don't forget.

Belladonna: I always get emotional at Christmas time Undoing so much good cheer. Whether I'm poisoning punch Or setting dolls on fire, I try to fill the world with grief and fear. What fun to send each family a big surprise As gruesome as it can be. I might invest the boughs of holly With bugs from outer space Or slide the local toy store into the sea.

I laugh. I cry. I totally lose my cool. Oh, me! Oh, my! I'm a Yuletide fool! To give the gift of chaos What thrill is more sublime? I always get emotional at Christmas time.

Killer: This year I'm taking More time to do my baking. You're always short and bonkin', ain't it true? (Whoa!) Carefully choosing (Whoa!) My card gets so confusing. I like the cats with Santa hats. Don't you?

Both: I laugh. I cry. I totally lose my cool. Oh, me! Oh, my! I'm a Yuletide fool!

KIller: When fruitcake goes on sale, I'm spending every dime.

Belladonna: It's time to pass out candy canes I've dipped in slime.

Both: So call me sentimental. It's a fact that I'm...

Killer: A fool for trees with flocking.

Belladonna: En route to steal your stocking.

Both: I always get emotional at Christmas time!

Reprise
Carface: I laugh. I cry. I totally lose my cool. Oh, me! Oh, my! I'm a Yuletide fool! The look's so doggone cozy, It oughta be a crime. I always get emotional at Christmas time.
