Perfect Christmas

[ARTHUR, spoken]
Have you ever wanted something to be absolutely, positively, most best it could be? Well that's how I want this Christmas to be like. Not good, not great, perfect

(Sung)
Christmas will be magical, just like in a fairy tale
I want so much snow that I'll use my toes to pick up the morning mail
Dinner will be delicious
Turkey and candied yams

[MR. READ]
Stuffing a mile high

[MRS. READ]
Seventeen types of pie

[GRANDMA THORA]
Do you want some more?

[ARTHUR]
Yes, ma'am

Our tree will shine so brightly
Our tree will be eight feet tall
Popcorn strung diagonally
Candy canes and silver balls
Here's a saying worth obeying
Please take out a pad and pencil
Nothing is more of an eyesore
Than the excessive use of tinsel

[D.W.]
What, no tinsel?

[ARTHUR]
Not on this tree!

[D.W.: Refrain]
But I want tinsel!

[ARTHUR]
Well, you can have all the tinsel you like!
When you are as old as me

[D.W.]
Is that a guarantee?

[ARTHUR]
Christmas will be special
It'll be magnificent
Everyone's going to state-

[READ FAMILY]
Arthur, we think you're great! (Pal howls)

[ARTHUR]
When they open up my presents
Yes, this Christmas I suspect, will be perfect in all respects
This Christmas will be the best Christmas yet
