TOPIC:
We can find the usual expressions about Christmas
in this song, but not with the usual meaning. It is now Lady
Gaga who has to be "lit up" and "put on top",
you can imagine her "delicious Christmas tree, which
is the only place you wanna be underneath", and it may
not be the mantelpiece where Lady Gaga's stockings should
be taken off;-)
GRAMMAR: In English, imperative
sentences usually end in a full stop instead of an exlamation
mark, begin with a verb and there is not a subject::
"Light me up.", "Put me on top." "Take
off my stockings.".
First,
try to understand the song just by listening to it, then
check your understanding and extend your vocabulary from
the lyrics below.

Lady Gaga - Christmas Tree (lyrics)
Ra pa pam pam, ra pa pam pam
Ra pa pam pam, ra pa pam pam
Light me up put me on top, let's falalalalalalala
Light me up put me on top, let's falalalalalalala
The only place you wanna be is
Underneath my Christmas tree
The only place you wanna be is
Underneath my Christmas tree
Light me up put me on top, let's falalalalalalala
Light me up put me on top, let's falalalalalalala
Ho ho ho (Ra pa pam pam), under the mistletoe (Ra pa pam pam)
Yes, everybody knows (Ra pa pam pam)
We will take off our clothes (Ra pa pam pam)
Yes, if you want us to we will
(You) oh, oh, a Christmas
My Christmas tree is delicious
Oh ,oh, a Christmas
My Christmas tree is delicious
Light you up, put you on top, let's falalalala (lets go!!)
Light you up, put you on top, let's falalalala (lets go!!)
Ho ho ho (Ra pa pam pam), under the mistletoe (Ra pa pam pam)
Yes everybody knows (Ra pa pam pam)
We will take off our clothes (Ra pa pam pam)
Yes, if you want us to we will
(You) oh, oh, a Christmas
My Christmas tree is delicious
Oh ,oh, a Christmas
My Christmas tree is delicious
Here, here, here (Ra pa pam pam)
The best time of the year (Ra pa pam pam)
Take off my stockings here
I'm spreading Christmas cheer
Yes, if you want us to we will, you
Oh ,oh, a Christmas
My Christmas tree is delicious
Oh, oh, a Christmas
My Christmas tree is delicious
Space cowboy, Lady Gaga, Lady Gaga
And she goes
Space cowboy, Lady Gaga, Lady Gaga
Here we go
Cherry, cherry, boom, boom
