VEGGIE TALES lyrics : "Oh, Santa!"
Narrator: "It's Christmas Eve, and Larry is anxiously
awaiting the
arrival of Santa Claus with a plate of cookies."
Larry: "Oh, Santa! I can't wait for you to come, I just
can't wait for
you to come, and I've got cookies! Three yummy cookies!
Just for you for
when you come, oh me, for you for when you come ... because
it's
Christmas!"
[Knock-knock-knock]
Larry: "Could that be Santa? Could that be him? Could it be the
one who
brings presents for a cucumber like me, a good cucumber like
me?"
Narrator: "Larry is surprised to be greeted not by Santa, but
crafty
bankrobber!"
Larry: "Who are you?"
Bankrobber: "I'm a bankrobber! And I've come to rob
your bank, oh yes!
I've come to rob your bank, and I've come to take your
dimes and swipe
your nickels. So stand back, step aside you silly pickle! And
let me
in!"
Narrator: "Although frightened by the intruder, in the spirit
of
Christmas Larry makes an offering."
Larry: "I'm not a banker ... I have no bank my robbing
friend, but I
have cookies--three yummy cookies. And I don't have
nickels, but please
take this my robbing friend. Eat one of these my robbing friend.
They
are for Santa, but you may have one."
Narrator: "The bankrobber is truly touched by Larry's good
will. But
Larry, although momentarily distracted, is still excited about
seeing
Santa."
Larry: "Oh, Santa! I can't wait for you to come, I just
can't wait for
you to come, and I've got cookies! Two yummy cookies! Just
for you for
when you come, oh me, for you for when you come ... because
it's
Christmas!"
Bankrobber: (Simultaneously) "I'm a robber! I came to rob
your bank, oh
yes! I came to rob your bank ... you shared a cookie--a yummy
cookie.
Though I'd love to take your dimes, perhaps another
time--because it's
Christmas!"
[Knock, knock, knock]
Larry: "Could that be Santa? Could that be him? Could it be the
one who
brings presents for a cucumber like me, a good cucumber like
me?"
Narrator: "Once again, it is not Santa who has come to
Larry's door, but
this time a savage Norseman."
Larry: "Who are you?"
Viking: "I'm a viking! And I've come to take your
land, oh yes! I've
come to take your land, and I've come to burn your crops
and steal your
horses. And I've come to ... step on your chickens! And
soil your
quilts!"
Narrator: "Although frightened by the intruder, in the spirit
of
Christmas Larry makes an offering."
Larry: "I don't have land ... I don't have crops, my
viking friend, but
I have cookies--two yummy cookies. And I don't have horses,
but please
take this my viking friend. Eat one of these my viking friend.
They are
for Santa, but you may have one."
Narrator: "The viking is also touched by Larry's good will.
But Larry's
thoughts are still with Santa."
Larry: "Oh, Santa! I can't wait for you to come, I just
can't wait for
you to come, I've got a cookie! A yummy cookie! Just for
you for when
you come, oh me, for you for when you come ... because it's
Christmas!"
Viking: (Simultaneously) "I'm a viking! I came to take your
land, oh
yes! I came to take your land ... you shared a cookie--a yummy
cookie.
Though I'd love to soil your quilts, I don't think
that I wilt ...
because it's Christmas!"
[Knock-knock-knock]
Larry: "Could that be Santa? Could that be him? Could it be the
one who
brings presents for a cucumber like me, a good cucumber like
me?"
Narrator: "Larry is greeted now by an agent of the Internal
Revenue
Service."
Larry: "Who are you?"
Peach: "I'm from the IRS! And I've come to tax your
..." [Slam]
Larry: "Oh, Santa! I can't wait for you to come, I just
can't wait for
you to come ... It's finally Santa! It's finally him!
At last, the one
who brings presents for a cucumber like me, a good cucumber like
me!"
Santa: "I'm Santa! And I've come to bring you gifts,
oh yes! I've come
to bring you gifts, and I've come to stuff your
stockings--oh ho-ho-ho!
And I've come to jiggle my belly. And wiggle my nose ...
Hey, wait a
minute! Isn't that my belt? And what are you doing with my
hat? So
you're the ones!"
Bankrobber: "Wait a minute, I can explain!"
Viking: "We've changed!"
Santa: "Nobody messes with Santa! You know that don't you!?
You've been
very naughty! And I've got a list!"
Peach: "Did you claim that?"
Larry: "Merry ... Christmas.
