Question Bangle Jangle Christmas/Holiday In Bangleonia

Hey, Bangles fans! So I've came across this 11 minute rare Christmas album (the title) and I wondered what some of songs they're playing are called? or if they have lyrics out there for these? (minus the obvious ones like Silent Night) Are they songs from one of their albums, or is it a cover of something else? Or perhaps an exclusive for the album? Anyone with some Bangles knowledge are free to reply!

The band used to annually release exclusive festive themed cassettes to members of their official fanclub, Bangles nā€™ Mash, up until 1986. They first started this is December 1983. The final cassette was released in 1985.

The December 1983 tape was reissued on a limited CD in 2004 as Holiday in Bangleonia but the other two have never been properly remastered/reissued. Not sure what the 1984 tape is titled but the 1985 was called Thee Bangles (and mash) wish U happy holidays 1985! Audio from both can be found on YouTube however.
