This performance is from Top of the Pops, Thursday December 20, 1973. That’s exactly 48 years ago today.
The source video I used to create this one is here:
That was the best-quality upload of this performance I could find online. I have replaced the audio track with a high-quality, full-length one of the single. To accompany the beginning of the track, I have put up on screen a picture of the single’s picture sleeve as released in Belgium. I have also added optional subtitles for the lyrics.
This song was written by Noddy Holder and Jim Lea. This track was produced by Chas Chandler, and was released in 1973. According to Wikipedia, this single went to No. 1 in their native UK and in Ireland, and reached No. 3 in the Netherlands and Belgium, No. 4 in Germany, No. 19 in Finland, No. 28 in France, and No. 58 in Australia, and has charted again many times since, including every year since 2006. The song’s Wikipedia page claims it was never released as a single in the United States, but the Discogs website has a page for its release there which includes pictures of it. Here is the link: ƨ-Everybody

I have not been able to find an official presentation of the lyrics to this song. Presented below and as optional subtitles in the video is my own transcript of the lyrics, for which I have used the transcripts found on lyrics websites as a guide.
Lyrics:
“Merry Xmas Everybody“
- Slade
(Words and Music by Noddy Holder and Jim Lea)
Are you hanging up a stocking on your wall?
It’s the time that every Santa has a ball
Does he ride a red-nosed reindeer?
Does a ton-up on his sleigh?
Do the fairies keep him sober for a day?
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody’s having fun
Look to the future now
It’s only just begun
Are you waiting for the family to arrive?
Are you sure you’ve got the room to spare inside?
Does your granny always tell ya
That the old songs are the best?
Then she’s up and rock-’n’-rolling with the rest
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody’s having fun
Look to the future now
It’s only just begun
What will your daddy do
When he sees your mama kissing Santa Claus?
Ah-ah-ah
Are you hanging up a stocking on your wall?
Are you hoping that the snow will start to fall?
Do you ride on down the hillside
In a buggy you have made?
When you land upon your head
Then you’ve been slayed
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody’s having fun
Look to the future now
It’s only just begun
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody’s having fun
Look to the future now
It’s only just begun
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody’s having fun
(It’s Christmas!)
Look to the future now
It’s only just begun
