Music Video
Synopsis
Crazy Frog appears behind two snowy trees, wearing a scarf and bobble hat. He scampers toward a door on the side of a hill, sneaking inside. There is a Christmas tree with presents beneath it, which Crazy Frog grabs one of, shaking it around. A trapdoor under him sends him falling into a secret underground toy factory, where Santa is locked up in a cage. He signals for Crazy Frog to set him free with a key placed next to the cage. Crazy Frog absently stares at Santa, while a security camera looks at him.
A claw comes down from the ceiling and grabs Crazy Frog by the head and flings him into the air. The Boss presses a skull-marked red button, and the claw drops Crazy Frog into a vat of green liquid. A laser scans him as he floats in the liquid. A monitor reads "scanning complete" and the claw pulls Crazy Frog out of the tank. He is dropped onto a conveyor belt creating plush figures of him. A stamp presses down on a plush in front of him, putting on a hat, but then presses down on Crazy Frog, causing Santa to cringe.
A robotic arm grabs the plush and dips the head into a bowl full of white paint. It then grabs Crazy Frog and dumps in him the bowl of paint, then throws him onto another conveyor belt leading into car wash rollers. Santa gasps in fear. After the rollers, the conveyor belt leads the plush to a screen which says "Say ding ding!" which the plush does. A giant hammer that says "OK" slams down on it. Crazy Frog tries reading the sign, going "bem bem" twice, causing the hammer to slam him down the conveyor belt.
He lands by Santa's sleigh, with a set of two buttons, a red and green one. He keeps pressing between red and green, getting angry, not realizing he's freeing and trapping Santa repeatedly. Crazy Frog gets in the sleigh, with Santa shaking his head in fear. He slams down on a button, causing a grappling hook to fire out across the toy factory, landing on the cage Santa is trapped in. Crazy Frog slams on another button, which starts up a rocket on the sleigh. It flies off, sending Santa flying along with the cage door. The music video ends with Crazy Frog flying in front of the moon, and Santa letting out a "bem bem."

Lyrics
Lyrics provided by Genius.[2]
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance but you still catch my eye
Tell me baby do you recognise me?
Well it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me
(Happy Christmas!) I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying 'I Love You' I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now I know you'd fool me
Again
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice
My God I thought you were someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover but you tore me apart
Oooh Oooh
Now I've found a real love you'll never fool me
Again
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
