part not two parts you've got four or
five parts and they're all funny now of
course a Christmas story has a character
in it that everybody knows that his name
is and whenever I mentioned Santa Claus
you guys at home can go home and you can
do it so let's try it this is a story
about Santa Claus and it's also a story
about an evil emperor yeah he's so evil
you go boo whenever I mention his name
now of course Santa Claus has reindeer
now Santa Clauses toys are made by a
dopey elf and you can make a dopey Elsa
is there anything else I wonder if I
have forgotten any of them Superman okay
this is the story about somebody who
makes 1 million 6-inch wind up Superman
dolls that's what we decided we would
shout whenever I talked about the
Superman dolls up in the North Pole
there lived with his 8 right here and
his chief toymaker the dopey Oh
now deep in the earth lived the
mastermind of all criminals the evil
emperor one year not so long ago santa
claus was standing in the snow brushing
his reindeer winds blew all around him
at that very moment all of the criminals
on the whole earth were down in a deep
cave listening to the evil emperor there
was thousands and thousands and
thousands of criminals and the evil
emperor shouted and they all yelled you
are the evil emperor and of all of us
who is the meanest bellowed the evil
emperor boom
and they screamed you are the evil
emperor and who is going to lead you on
the greatest mass robbery in the history
of the earth hist
the evil emperor and they chanted you
are you are the evil emperor this
Christmas at exactly five minutes after
4:00 in the morning when everyone is
asleep and Santa Claus has already
returned to the North Pole with his
reindeer
we will creep into all the houses where
Santa Claus who has been and we will
steal every present in the world
a bad man was the evil emperor
meanwhile at the North Pole Santa Claus
Oh caught a terrible cold and so mrs.
Claus put Santa Claus that's right now
every Christmas the chief toymaker the
dopey L invented a new and wonderful toy
and this Christmas the dopey elf a
six-inch high wind up Superman doll
which by the way when wound up would fly
faster than a speeding b*llet
but with Santa Claus in bed the dopey
elf lazy he stopped making Superman
dolls and two nights before Christmas
when Santa Claus found his magic toy bag
was still empty he was furious
of course the dopey elf apologized and
immediately began to make 1 million
Superman doll however the night before
Christmas the Superman dolls still not
finished but the dopey elf
says he said Santa Claus Oh take your
reindeer deliver whatever presents
you've got my Superman dolls will
deliver themselves and that night the
dopey elf finished making all the windup
toys he took the maps outside and he
wound up 1 million Superman doll all
over earth the bad people waited for the
stroke of 4:00 a.m. in order to carry
out the evil plan oh the evil emperor
now the dopey elf
[Music]
do nothing of the terrible plans of the
evil emperor
it was very happy and one after another
the Superman doll took off from the
North Pole
they took off one after another and at
exactly five minutes after 4:00 in the
morning
the Superman dolls rived at the homes of
children that Santa Claus and the
reindeer had already visited now in his
secret cave the evil emperor was all
chuckling over the facts that he was
going to have all of the Christmas gifts
given to the children by Santa Claus
that moment there was a terrible shaking
of the whole earth it's an earthquake
yelled the evil emperor but it wasn't
you know it was merely the shockwave of
1 million tiny fists smashing against a
lot of terrible people who were sneaking
out of homes everywhere with stolen
Christmas presents pow smash of 1
million tiny little Superman doll it's
amazing that the sounds of fighting
everywhere didn't wake everybody up I
suppose the people were exhausted from
decorating their trees but it's
certainly true that all of the Christmas
presents
were saved and it's also true that
nobody was aware that at 4:05 while
everybody slept soundly one Christmas
morning not long ago the evil emperor
and thousands of criminals all over the
world were brought to justice by a g*ng
of powerful 6-inch high wind up this is
the song that does it and yes it goes on
and on my friend some people started
singing it not knowing what it was and
they'll continue singing it is forever
just because
[Music]
how do I turn you off
[Music]
[Music]
