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 p.m.
I was working the holiday watch out of homicide with Frank
Frank:
"Hang up your stocking yet, Joe?"
Joe:
"Yeah, just before I come down
You too Frank?"
Frank:
"Always do
Hung it up early just in case I have to work late tonight
Wouldn't wanna miss out on when Santa Claus comes you know"
Joe:
"Sure wouldn't, be a shame"
Frank:
"Whatcha gonna do tomorrow, Joe?
Whatcha gonna do on Christmas, you got any plans?"
Joe:
"Nothin' much"
Frank:
"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?"
Joe:
"Notice what Frank?"
Frank:
"How most people call them green onions but they're really scallions"
Joe:
"Uh-huh
Scallions"
Frank:
"Anytime after two, Joe
Love ta have ya."
Joe:
"Uh-huh
Well I'll see"
Frank:
"Love ta have ya"
Joe:
"Uh-huh
Well, I'll see"
Frank:
"Love ta have ya"
Joe:
"Uh-huh
Well, I'll see"
Frank:
"Missus always fixes a plate of relish with them little carrot sticks
You know - olives, pickles, scallions"
