The Twelve Gifts of Christmas<br />

On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me<br />

A Japanese transistor radio.<br />

On the second day of Christmas, my true love gave to me<br />

Green polka-dot pajamas,<br />

And a Japanese transistor radio.<br />

(It's a Nakashuma.)<br />

On the third day of Christmas, my true love gave to me<br />

A calendar book with the name of my insurance man,<br />

Green polka-dot pajamas,<br />

And a Japanese transistor radio.<br />

(It's the Mark IV model. That's the one that's discontinued.)<br />

On the fourth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me<br />

A simulated alligator wallet,<br />

A calendar book with the name of my insurance man,<br />

Green polka-dot pajamas,<br />

And a Japanese transistor radio.<br />

(And it comes in a leatherette case with holes in it,<br />

So you can listen right through the case.)<br />

On the fifth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me<br />

A statue of a lady, with a clock where her stomach ought to be,<br />

A simulated alligator wallet,<br />

A calendar book with the name of my insurance man,<br />

Green polka-dot pajamas,<br />

And a Japanese transistor radio.<br />

(And it has a wire with a thing on one end that you<br />

Can stick in your ear, and a thing on the other end<br />

That you can't stick anywhere, because it's bent.)<br />

On the sixth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me<br />

A hammered aluminum nutcracker,<br />

And all that other stuff,<br />

And a Japanese transistor radio.<br />

On the seventh day of Christmas, my true love gave to me<br />

A pink satin pillow that says San Diego, with fringe all around it,<br />

And all that other stuff,<br />

And a Japanese transistor radio.<br />

On the eighth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me<br />

An indoor plastic birdbath,<br />

And all that other stuff,<br />

And a Japanese transistor radio.<br />

On the ninth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me<br />

A pair of teakwood shower clogs,<br />

And a Japanese transistor radio.<br />

On the tenth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me<br />

A chromium combination manicure scissors and cigarette lighter,<br />

And a Japanese transistor radio.<br />

On the eleventh day of Christmas, my true love gave to me<br />

An automatic vegetable slicer that works when you see it on television,<br />

but not when you get it home,<br />

And a Japanese transistor radio.<br />

On the twelfth day of Christmas, although it may seem strange,<br />

On the twelfth day of Christmas, I'm going to exchange:<br />

An automatic vegetable slicer that works when you see it on television,<br />

but not when you get it home,<br />

A chromium combination manicure scissors and cigarette lighter,<br />

A pair of teakwood shower clogs,<br />

An indoor plastic birdbath,<br />

A pink satin pillow that says San Diego, with fringe all around it,<br />

A hammered aluminum nutcracker,<br />

A statue of a lady, with a clock where her stomach ought to be,<br />

A simulated alligator wallet,<br />

A calendar book with the name of my insurance man,<br />

Green polka-dot pajamas,<br />

And a Japanese transistor radio.<br />

Merry Christmas everybody
