    Hahaha, I do the same thing to “O, Christmas Tree”.
    Just sing those three words over and over in the correct tone and it all fits.

      My brain does this and also likes to do it with Santa Claus is Coming to Town, except just “you better watch out” over and over again, sounding more and more threatening, haha. I’m pretty sure I got that from some meme or social media post years ago, though.

        How do you fit adjust the 5-syllable phrase to fit the 8-syllable titular line at the end?

        “you had better really watch out”?

        Do you continue into the B-section (“he sees you when you’re sleeping”) as well?
