Why don’t you come and play with me, my friend?
Bring your cousins too!
We’ll wrap a gift

We’ll throw some snowballs, how fun it will be 
That’s what it’s all about, we’ll do it together

Lyrics:
Whatcha gonna do now
To save the world
Things are just a mess now
It really hurts

Now I’ve got the answer
You know it too
Music’s gonna save us, yeah 

It’s all that we want
It’s all that we need
Just open your ears and listen to me

Cause everyone
And every day
We need those sounds in every way

No more useless talking 
We’ve heard it all
Watcha gonna do now
You hear the call

Drown out all the BS
You know it’s true
Music’s gonna save us, yeah

It’s all that we want
It’s all that we need
Just open your ears and listen to me

Cause everyone
And every day
We need those sounds in every way

Merry Christmas!
Music and lyrics by The Landaeus Csizmadia Family Orchestra

"I'll Never Tell You"

On a special day, before the year ends
If you look up at the sky
You might catch a glimpse, of a comet so bright
Racing straight for you and I
But it may not be what it seems, it might be his sleigh
And if you get the binoculars
You can see a reindeer, maybe with a red nose (red as a rose)
He has hooves and not toes
To be teased he loathes
And to the chimney he goes

Last night i saw
Santa Claus break the law
I never knew
What Santa could do
It's all different now
I just won´t tell you how

I’ll never tell ya
Don't try to make me
My world is upside down
On the rooftop it lands, a sleigh made out of brown oak
With a big bag of packages 
It’s connected by rope, the rope is polished with soap
And it shines in the darkness
But something here must be astray
It should be a different way
Cause where’s the man that we talked about?
There is only a reindeer with a shiny big nose (red as a rose)
He has hooves and not toes (hooves and not toes)
To be teased he loathes (to be teased he loathes)
And to the chimney he goes

Last night i saw
Santa Claus break the law
I never knew
What Santa could do
It's all different now
I just won´t tell you how

I’ll never tell ya
Don't try to make me
My world is upside down

I’ll never tell you
Don't try to make me
My world is upside down
I’ll never tell you
Don't try to make me
My world is upside down
I’ll never tell you
Don't try to make me
My world is upside down

I’ll never tell ya
Don't try to make me
My world is upside down

I'll Never Tell You (2014)

Joey lived up atop a hill
Wintertime standing still
Bottom, middle, and head so round
Snowy and shining bright
Sometimes he couldn’t stay so long
Wanting more time to play
Put in the carrot to make his nose
Before he melts away!
 
Joey, he could see all around
Through the woods, into town
Joey, he never felt alone
Loving his snowman life
Sometimes he felt a little warm
And the children would say
Put in the charcoal to make his eyes
Before he melts away!
 
Joey, we love you
Joey, you’re ours
Joey, our friend
Until the end
 
Joey, he came back every year
Spreading his winter cheer
Never wondering where he’d be
If he could not be here
He always smiled and waved to us
If only for a day
Put in the branches to make his arms
Before he melts away!

Snowy Joey (2024)

You gonna, we gonna celebrate 
Get your stuff and don’t be late

We’ll never stop, we’ll never stop!
Give it to the bottom take it from the top

Slidin’ down the chimney slow
Outta there before you know 

We’ll never stop, we’ll never stop!
Climbin’ up the ladder careful when you drop

See you on the other side
Man, it’s gonna be a ride

We’ll never stop, we’ll never stop!
Fillin’ up your sock, fillin’ up your sock

Written and performed by The Landæus Csizmadia Family Orchestra

We'll Never Stop (2025)

"This Season"

Every time this season comes around,
I can´t help but feel a little down,
All I want to be is homeward bound

Everywhere I look I see her face,
Wear my finest shoes just in case,
All this time without her´s such a waste

If only I could tell her, "Have a Merry Christmas"
If only she would answer, "Happy New Year, too"

Every one who comes to see me knows,
That´s the way my Christmas season goes

"What It Sounds Like"

Put your hand in my hand
We gotta go

Just wait and see
This is the year

And you’ll follow me
This is what it sounds like

Do you see what I see?
Here we go

"You´ve Got To Believe (Don´t Say No)"

No stars out tonight, I´m going home
I can´t find my way
Who´s that I see behind the tall trees
He´s shorter than me
Could it be?

He pulls off his hat and winks at me
Don´t know what to say
You get one wish
But I will need your help
You´ve got to believe
Could it be?

DON´T SAY NO TO ME
I MAY GIVE YOU WHAT YOU WANT
THIS NIGHT ALL CAN COME
TRUE IF YOU BELIEVE IN ME

And that´s when I know that I´m okay
We both start to smile
I do believe
And now I see the way
One star shining bright
Could it be?

"Here's to Friends and Family"

Fint med alla ljusen / The lights are pretty
Som lyser in i husen / Shining inside the houses
Det är jättesnyggt när det är jul / It's handsome when it's Christmas
Och så är det ganska kul / And it's pretty fun
Alla ljus är tända / All the lights are lit
Någonting ska hända / Something is going to happen
Det är något som jag inte vet / There is something that I don't know -
Vad som finns i mitt paket / What is in my present

(Sara's improv:)
La la la
Och när stjärnor lyser / And when the stars shine
Och änglar flyger och fryser / And angels fly and feel cold
Och när änglar fryser / And angels feel cold
La la la
Och en flicka satt och frös / And a girl sat and was cold
Och hon även, även nös / And she even, even sneezed
En flicka satt och frös / A girl sat and was cold
Och hon även, även nös / And she even, even sneezed

Here’s to friends and family
Whether near or far
Have a lovely holiday’s time
Where’er you are
Some are under palm trees
Others at the pool
We’re in Sweden freezing our butts
off in our school
You can come and visit
There is always room
Probably the size of this house 
will be our doom
But seriously, merry Christmas
Happy new year too
Sending our best wishes and lots
Of love to you

"Santa You Can Shake It"

Christmas is coming, the best day of the year
I open my package, and oh no, it’s just the thing I fear
Santa, how could you?
I don’t play trombone 
Help me (help me)
I need music (I need music)
To make this Christmas rock and roll

If you want to see me smile
This is what you gotta do, you gotta play it
Grab a seat and stay a while
Show me how you make it
Sant you can shake it!

If you want to see me smile
This is what you gotta do, you gotta play it
Grab a seat and stay a while
Show me how you make it
Sant you can shake it!

If you want to see me smile
This is what you gotta do, you gotta play it
Grab a seat and stay a while
Show me how you make it
Sant you can shake it!

If you want to see me smile
This is what you gotta do, you gotta play it
Grab a seat and stay a while
Show me how you make it
Sant you can shake it!

  ”Wish List”

Santa won’t you please
think about all of our needs
Coming years we have to fear
that there won’t be any bees

As we sing this song
the koala’s almost gone
Polar bears are threatened too
Well, the list is very long

Please stop the bulldozers
Destroying the Amazon
Avocados, coffee beans
Soon they will be gone

Santa please, I wish
that you save all of our fish
In the sea they’d like to be
We don’t need them as a dish

Santa:
Maybe next year,
I’m busy my dears
So many they want their comforts
New telephones, clothes, TV’s and drones
The elves never rest a moment

Santa, don’t you see
Time is running out quickly
Seas are drowning our shores
and soon we’ll have to flee

Santa, can you please
see to it that we can breathe
Shortly Sydney’s air will be
way too thick and black to see

Phase out the fossil fuels
And end all the wars
Give people back their voice
Even where they’re poor

Please hear what we say
If your ice will melt away
Tempratures will rise too high
And you’ll have nowhere to stay

Santa: 
Maybe next year,
I’m busy my dears
So many they want their comforts
New cars and jewels, their very own pools
The elves never rest a moment

Santa Claus is gone
Now we all must get along
and save our planet, save our world
before next Christmas song

"Burning Earth (Fight for You)"

We don’t know the future
It’s up to us, and you
You best believe it
Now we can’t back down

Yes, we are on fire, fire, fire
We’re rising high
Don’t you know it’s human nature
To unite, do what’s right, think about all of humankind

Burning Earth
Hunger, thirst
Hold our hands
WE WILL FIGHT FOR YOU

We know that you need us
We feel your heart, and you
You best believe it
Now we can’t back down

Yes, we are on fire, fire, fire
We’re rising high
You should know there’s next to nothing
That will break me or take me away, I’ll be standing here

Burning Earth
Hunger, thirst
Hold our hands
WE WILL FIGHT FOR YOU
