Apple continues the Get A Mac advertising campaign with an animated TV ad in which Santa Claus joins the two comedians in a computer-related version of the song, “Santa Claus is Coming”. PC (John Hodgman) and Mac (Justin Long) sing alternate lines until PC gets carried away and encourages viewers not to buy Macs.

You’d better watch out
You’d better not cry
You’d better not power down
I’m telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
He sees you when you’re in sleep mode
He knows when you’re awake
He knows when you’ve been bad or good
So buy a PC and not a Mac this holiday season
or any other time for goodness sake!
Oh…. (come one) oh…. (what?)
I thought those were the lyrics
That’s how I learned it…
