Couplet 1

Every day is a grind
Them elves working six-day weeks
No raise in sight
Santa only pay 'em cookies
When they working that overtime
Gotta make that quota
Can't do it in a 9 to 5
That ain't right

Pré-Refrain

Let's talk about fairness
Elf awareness

Refrain

This is the elf song
Sitting on the shelf song
Working with them itty bitty
Pointy toed shoes on
I blame Santa Claus
And his North Pole operation
Ain't a good look
Paying candy cane wages
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Give 'em some
Put your hands up for the elves

Boucle

This is the elf song
This is the elf song
This is the elf song
Alright

Couplet 2

They only stand two-feet tall
Or maybe three maybe four
But the point is elves are small
Still make enough toys
For a million shopping malls
Size don't matter
Even Santa can't do it all
Elves are the bomb

Refrain

This is the elf song
Giving them the credit song
Working with them itty bitty
Pointy toed shoes on
I love Santa Claus
And his North Pole operation
But it ain't a good look
Paying M&M wages
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Give 'em some
Put your hands up for the elves

Boucle

This is the elf song
This is the elf song

Pré-Refrain

Let's talk about fairness
Elf awareness

Refrain

This is the elf song
Elfin' every day song
Dancing with them itty bitty
Pointy toed shoes on
High five Santa Claus
And his North Pole operation
Word on the street is
The elves got raises
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Give 'em some
Put your hands up for the elves

Outro

This is the elf song
This is the elf song
This is the elf song
This is the elf song
