I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday by Wizzard

I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday
Wizzard, 1973

In 1973, 'Wizzard', a group formed by former 'Move' member Roy Wood, released their new album, Wizzard Brew, as well as a single titled 'I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday'. While the band split up in 1975, the song remains a perennial Christmas favorite in the UK. I had never before heard it until this Christmas 2020, but now that I have, it will be a playlist fave.


Enjoy the goodness from 1973 !


When the snowman brings the snow
Well he just might like to know
He's put a great big smile on somebody's face
If you jump into your bed
Quickly cover up your head
Don't you lock the doors
You know that sweet Santa Claus in on the way

Well I wish it could be Christmas every day
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas every day
Let the bells ring out for Christmas

When we're skating in the park
If the storm cloud makes it dark
Then your rosy cheek's going to light my merry way
Now the frosticles appear
And they've frozen up my beard
So we'll lie by the fire
Till the sleet simply knocks 'em all away

Well I wish it could be Christmas every day
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas every day
Let the bells ring out for Christmas

When the snowman brings the snow
Well he just might like to know
He's put a great big smile on somebody's face
So if Santa brings that sleigh
All along the Milky Way
I'll sign my name on the roof top in the snow
Then he may decide to stay

Well I wish it could be Christmas every day
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas every day
Let the bells ring out for Christmas
Well I wish it could be Christmas every day
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas every day
Let the bells ring out for Christmas
Why don't you give your love for Christmas?

When the snowman brings the snow
When the snowman brings the snow
