It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Everywhere you go
Take a look at emails five and ten, it’s phishing time once again
With suspicious links and attachments that will bring you woe

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Cyberattacks lurking in every data store
But the scariest sight to see is the hit that will be
On your own credit score

A date of birth and social security number
Is the wish of Barney and Ben
A credit card and CCV code
Is the hope of Janice and Jen
And cyberattackers can hardly wait use them again and again

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Everywhere you go
There’s a breach in the Marriot Hotel, one in Orbitz as well
There’re the stealthy kind that are really hard to know

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Soon the fraud will start
And the thing that will make ‘em cyberattackers sing is the PII that you bring
Right within your checkout cart

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Cyberattacks lurking in every data store
But the scariest sight to see is the hit that will be
On your own credit score

Sure it’s Christmas, once more
