What’s in a Gift? Lyrics by StarKid Productions

VHS Christmas Carols (The Full Musical Album)

2024

[THE NARRATOR]
What's in a gift?
Sometimes I can't recall
Why people do it all
Why people give
Why make the sacrifice?
Pay such an awful price
Just for a gift?
Can somebody tell me how
It's the thought that counts
Not the dollar amount
Because if just a thought can count
Why not just tell them how
It was thought about?
What's in a gift?
[JIM and DELLA]
Something sometimes hard to see
[THE NARRATOR]
Is it how smart or dumb?
Is it just who it's from?
What's in a gift?
[JIM and DELLA]
Something not underneath the tree
[THE NARRATOR]
What's the real reason for it?
Is it just the season for it?
What gives?
And look at these foolish kids
And their foolish gifts
Look at what they did
Traded in their most treasured possessions for gifts
And look what came of it
What foolish kids
What foolish kids
What's in a gift?
[JIM and DELLA, THE NARRATOR]
Something precious something free
More valuable than gold could ever be
Something so surprisingly
Right in front of me
What's in a gift?
Something that can't be replaced
What's in a gift?
Something not easily explained
Something's lost but what is gained is
Perfect
Next time you give a gift
Or get a gift just think of it
What's in a gift?
[THE NARRATOR]
To you
