The refrain of this song is one of the easiest songs out there. That means your predecessor probably taught (part of) it to the students already, so you might as well sing it again. Add some gestures to make it a little more exciting. For instance, try thumbs up on the word "merry", and fingers on your cheeks on the word "happy".

Liven up matters by explaining what verse 2 and verse 3 mean. That is, people sing so loud that it's best to give them food so they'll leave.

Lyrics

We wish you a Merry Christmas,
We wish you a Merry Christmas, 
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin,
Good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year. 

Oh, bring us a figgy pudding,
Oh, bring us a figgy pudding, 
Oh, bring us a figgy pudding and a cup of good cheer.

We won't go until we get some,
We won't go until we get some, 
We won't go until we get some, so bring some out here.

We wish you a Merry Christmas,
We wish you a Merry Christmas, 
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
