THE TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS "Bob & Doug McKenzie" (actually Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas)
(B: Bob D: Doug C: Chorus)
B: OK, g'day. This is our Christmas part of the album. You can play this at your Christmas parties, or to yourself on Christmas Eve, if there's nothin' else to do. D: G'day, eh? In case you thought, like, I wasn't on this part. B: Oh, I guarantee ya you'd be on. OK, so good day. This is the Christmas part, and we're gonna tell ya what to get...um...your true love for Christmas. D: Look out the window! B: Where? (Chuckle) What are ya doin'? D: Snow, hosehead! B: Well, oh, it's the Great White North, and it's snowing 'cause it's Christmas time. Hey, hoser! D: What? B: Here's a quiz. (Chuckle) Quiz for Doug. D: OK, I have my "thinking tuque" on. B: Yeah, right. What are the "Twelve Days of Christmas"? 'Cause, figure it out, right? Christmas is when? D: Um, the twenty-fifth. B: Right. And, what's the twenty-fourth? Christmas Eve, right? So...

D: New Year's! B: Four and what's.... D: New Year's Eve? B: That's five. Where do ya get twelve? D: Uh, there's two Saturdays and Sundays in there; that's four. So, that's nine. And three other days which, I believe, are the "mystery" days. (Music starts) B: OK, this our Christmas song, just in case you don't know what to get someone for Christmas. D: There's lots of ideas in here, so listen and don't get stuck! (Organ starts) By the way, that's ME on the organ. B: Oh, geez. D: You start. B: OK.

D: OK, the song's over! Merry Christmas, everybody! B: ...or, on the twelfth day, you could've got me a DOZEN donuts. D: So, go out to the stores and get some presents! B: You could've gone down, to, like, the good donut shops where you buy a dozen, you get another one free, and then it'd be thirteen for the "Thirteen Days of Christmas"! D: Next Christmas, you can get me a chain saw! B: Take off! (As music fades:) D: Boy, that song was a beauty. It...it moved me. B: Yeah, I think it ranks up there with "Stairway to Heaven." D: What?
