Did that really just happen?
Have I actually understood?
This weird quirk I've tried to suppress or hide
Is a talent that could
Help me lead the reindeer
If I make good?
So I'll make good…

When I work for Santa
Once I've proved my worth
And when I work for Santa
What I've waited for since - since birth
And with all his Yuletide wisdom
By my looks he won't be blinded
Do you think that Santa is dumb?
Or like elves, he's so small-minded? No!
He'll say to me, "I see who you truly are
A buck on whom I can rely"
And that's how we'll begin, old Santa and I

When I work for Santa
My whole life will change
'Cause when you work for Santa
No one thinks you're strange
No father is not proud of you
No mother acts ashamed
And all reindeer have to love you
When by Santa you're acclaimed
And this gift or this curse I have inside
Maybe at last I'll know why
When we are hand in hoof
Old Santa and I

And one day he'll say to me "Rudolph, son
This snowstorm is the worst I've ever seen
My reindeer can't see their way through it
So Christmas is off - wait, what's that gleam?
Since that nose of yours shines so brilliantly
With it out in front, we can finally see
So with your nose so bright
Will you guide my sleigh tonight?"
And though of course that's not important to me
"All right, why not?" I'll reply
Oh, what a pair we'll be, old Santa and I
Yes, what a pair we'll be, old Santa and…

Unlimited, my future is unlimited
And I just had a vision almost like a prophecy
I know, it sounds truly crazy
And like the fog, it's hazy
But I swear someday there'll be
A celebration, and soon I'll go down in history

And I'll fly in front of Santa
Feeling things I've never felt
And though I'd never show it
I'd be so happy I could melt
And so it will be for the rest of my life
And I'll want nothing else till I die
Held in such high esteem
When people see me, they will scream
For the North Pole's best Christmas team
Old Santa and I
