Stan Freberg - Christmas Dragnet текст песни

This is the season
My name's Wednesday
My partner's Frank Jones
The Chief's name is Captain Kellogg

December the 24th, Christmas Eve
They brought in a guy named 'Grudge'
When I heard what they booked him on, my blood ran cold
It was a 4096325- 096704: not believing in Santa Claus

4:35 pm
I was working the holiday watch out of homicide with Frank

"Hang up your stocking yet, Joe?"

"Yeah, just before I come down You too Frank?"

"Alway do
Hung it up early just in case I have'ta work late tonight
Wouldn't wanna miss out on when Santa Claus comes you know "

"Sure wouldn't, be a shame"

"Whatcha gonna do tomorrow, Joe?
Whatcha gonna do on Christmas, got any plans?"

"Nothin' much"

"Why don't you come by the house Joe?
We're gonna have Christmas dinner
You know, all the trimmings:
turkey, celery stuffing, oysters maybe
Chestnuts, all the trimmings, you know
Cranberry sauce, love'ta have ya
The Missus always fixes a plate of relish
with them little carrot sticks
You know, olives, pickles, scallions
Most people call them Green Onions, but they're really scallions
Did you ever notice that Joe?"

"Notice what Frank?"

"How most people call them green onions but they're really scallions"

"Uh-huh Scallions"

"Anytime after two, Joe Love ta have ya"

"Uh-huh Well I'll see"

"Love ta have ya"

"Uh-huh Well, I'll see"

"Love ta have ya"

"Uh-huh Well, I'll see"

"Missus always fixes a plate of relish with them little carrot sticks
You know - olives, pickles, scallions"-ac
