Never Fall In Love Lyrics - Elf: The Musical - Original Broadway Cast

He's several hours late 

The skyline's getting dim 

While others deck the halls 

You dream of decking him 

My choice in men has always been 

Pathetic, I suppose 

The guy who stole my credit cards 

The guy who tried on my clothes 

And so a row of self-help books 

Line my bedroom shelf 

Well there's one rule those books forgot 

You never fall in love with an elf 

His endless talk of Christmastown 

Will test your every nerve 

Still, he's kinda cute, I guess 

Well, if you grade on a curve 

And though you vowed you'd never sing 

Just look at yourself 

You're halfway through a Christmas song 

Called "Never Fall in Love with an Elf" 

The holidays will seem bittersweet 

While you're alone in bed 

But how can one girl ever compete 

With a magic fat guy in a flying sled? 

Go ask a hundred single girls 

From here to Philadel. . . phia 

They'll say it's clear as day 

You're in for sleepless nights 

If you date a guy 

Who has a thing for tights 

Oh, never fall in love 

Never fall in love 

Never 

Fall in 

Love 

With an 

Elf 

It's as clear as a jinglebell 

If you are single 

Well, don't fall in love with an elf
