Lyrics[]
Archibald: No matter what your grumpy mood,
You can't resist this Christmas food.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.
Jimmy: We love Christmas food! Bring it on!
Jerry: Ready!
Archibald: Send your taste buds for a loop,
And try this yummy cabbage soup.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.
Jimmy: Cabbage soup?
Jerry: Not Christmas-y.
Archibald: It is if you live in the Czech Republic!
Jimmy: Not really feeling it. Let's bring on the Christmas food.
Archibald: This Christmastime, you'll get your wish
If you enjoy this Christmas dish.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.
Jimmy: I hope it's not soup.
(Archibald removes the serving dish to reveal the next food)
Jimmy: What am I looking at?
Jimmy: Looks like jelly.
Archibald: Come on fellows, take a risk.
Have a slip of lutefisk. Ah-ha!
Jimmy: Which is, what, exactly?
Archibald: Jellied fish!
Jimmy: Ick!
Jerry: Fish jelly.
Jimmy: Oh man, that's not Christmas food.
Archibald: It is if you live in Scandinavia!
Jerry: Fish jiggles.
Jimmy: I want Christmas food!
Archibald: Do not think I'm being rude,
But all of this is Christmas food.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.
You did not like dish one or two,
But here's a dish just right for you.
Jimmy: It better be ham or something.
Jerry: Piggy.
(Archibald removes another serving dish)
Jimmy: That's not ham.
Archibald: Now it's time to get your filler
Tasty, fried-up caterpillars.
Jerry: Caterpillars?
Archibald: Gonimbrasia belina, a moth species whose caterpillar is harvested in southern Africa around Christmastime and served up fried and crunchy.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.
Jimmy: Alright fella, you said this was gonna be Christmas food. Ham and turkey and pies and cookies!
Archibald: It's Christmas food from around the world, my friends! We're on an educational journey of discovery!
Jerry: No pies, no cookies.
Jimmy: I'll give you one more chance to give us something Christmas-y. One more chance!
Archibald: I'm thrilled to show you what's in store
Feast your eyes on number four
Fa-la-la-la-la, fa-la-la-la-la,
Fa-la-la-la-la!
(Jimmy and Jerry look at the next meal, only for it to be the head of a sheep)
Jerry: It's... looking at me.
(The sheep bleats, and Jimmy and Jerry run off of the stage)
Archibald: Roast sheep's head, a Christmas delicacy in Norway.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.
