00:06Have you been told, did you ever hear of the curious, furious, fidgety year when Santa
00:13Claus unhitched his sleigh and vowed he was taking a holiday?
00:18How do I know so much about Santa?
00:20Well, I'm Mrs. Claus.
00:23It was long ago before you were living.
00:26Not yet Christmas, but past Thanksgiving, though I can't give you the very date.
00:35Santa got up that morning late, pulled on one boot and then its twin, ruffled the whiskers
00:41on his chin and sat back down on the side of the bed.
00:45Great North Star, but I'm tired, he said.
00:48Painting wagons red and bright, sharpening ice skates half the night, wrapping presents
00:54and ribbons and gauze has warned me weary, said Santa Claus, crick in my back, cold in
01:03my nose, aches in my fingers and all ten toes, and a sort of kind of kink inside whenever
01:11I think of that Christmas ride.
01:15Now, Santa, you just rest yourself a bit longer.
01:18Santa, I've already sent for the doctor.
01:20We'll have you back on your feet in no time.
01:23Ah, ah.
01:27No wonder you got the shivering shakes.
01:30Probably never got over the case of near pneumonia you picked up last year, gallivanting around
01:36the world in your open sleigh.
01:38And for what?
01:39Just to deliver presents to a bunch of folks who don't give a hoot in the first place.
01:44But, uh, now, now, doctor, it's not just presents and you know it.
01:51What about all that Christmas spirit and goodwill?
01:54If you had any sense, you'd give it up as a bad job and stay home in bed this year.
01:58Oh, come now, if Santa stayed home, why, there'd be no Christmas.
02:03Who cares?
02:04Nobody cares about Christmas anymore.
02:07They don't.
02:10Of course not.
02:11Wouldn't surprise me none if nobody even believes in you anymore.
02:15Now, Santa, don't you pay him any mind.
02:18Nobody cares a hoot and holler for you are Christmas.
02:22Oh, by the way, Merry Christmas to you.
02:25Now, Santa, I hope you're not going to take any of that dot.
02:29No, Ma, the man's right.
02:31I had that same feeling myself, but I just wouldn't admit it.
02:36Nobody really cares anymore.
02:39And besides, the doctor says I'm really not up to snuff.
02:44Besides, I'm due for a holiday.
02:48I better call the boys and tell them to cancel Christmas.
02:58Warn the people.
03:00Tell the papers.
03:01I'm much too tired for Christmas capers.
03:05But, but, but, but, Santa, you must be kidding.
03:08But it was true.
03:09Santa was taking a holiday,
03:11and the world would soon know that it was to be the year without a Santa Claus.
03:17Did you ever hear of that terrible year
03:22way back before you were born
03:25when Santa Claus took a holiday
03:31on the night before Christmas morn?
03:37It was a year without a Santa Claus
03:43The worst we've ever had
03:54Santa woke up one day
03:57Looking tough and angry
03:59And this is what he said
04:02I could sure use some rest
04:05I'm not feeling my best
04:07And he yawned as he took to his bed
04:10There'll be a year without a Santa Claus
04:15I'm sure they won't miss me
04:18There'll be a year without a Santa Claus
04:24Beside your Christmas tree
04:27And he slept through the day
04:30As the hours ticked away
04:32And the time was growing near
04:35And the children, they cried
04:38They thought Santa had died
04:40Every eye shed a blue Christmas tear
04:43It was a year without a Santa Claus
04:49A Christmas Eve so sad
04:52It was a year without a Santa Claus
04:57The worst we've ever had
05:11Well, can you imagine, more or less
05:14What happened when that news reached the press?
05:18Headlines screamed, wires went humming
05:20Santa says, too tired
05:22Not coming
05:25Out in the stable, nuzzling hay
05:28The reindeer dreamed of Christmas Day
05:31But Santa phoned to the reindeer groom
05:34Uh, hang up the harness in the big storeroom
05:39He called to his elves and he told each gnome
05:42Cover up the shelves
05:46We're staying home
05:48What?
05:49Cover the shelves?
05:51Cried the gnomes and elves
05:52Cover the dolls
05:54And the electric trains
05:56And the rocking horses with shaggy manes
05:59And the rubber boots for splashing in parts
06:02And the cowboy suits
06:03And the Noah's arks
06:05And the Noah's arks
06:08And the animals, too
06:13Hello, jingle bells
06:15Number one elf speaking
06:17And jangle bells
06:18Will you stop that?
06:21May I ask who is calling, please?
06:24Oh, hi, Mrs. Claus
06:26Yes, Mrs. Claus
06:28Okay, Mrs. Claus
06:30Sure thing, Mrs. Claus
06:31Right away, Mrs. Claus
06:33Who was that?
06:35That was...
06:36Come on
06:39Hmm, it fits
06:41It fits very nicely
06:45I bet I could be Santa Claus
06:48Who would know the difference
06:50If Santa Claus was me?
06:54Yes, who would know the difference?
06:56Just Santa Claus and me
07:04Anyone can be Santa
07:07Why can't a lady like me?
07:11I admit I'm underfed
07:13But with a pillow from the bed
07:15I could be Santa Claus
07:18Oh, anyone can play Santa
07:22I fantasized it a lot
07:27With his hat upon my head
07:29And his suit of Christmas red
07:31I could be Santa Claus
07:34And with his ho, ho, ho
07:36I'd be going
07:38Down the chimneys
07:40Through this sack
07:42And although my curls may be showing
07:46I'll make sure they only see me from the back
07:50Yes, anyone can be Santa
07:54A tantalizing remark
07:58Though his boots are not my size
08:01With a twinkle in my eyes
08:03I could be Santa Claus
08:14With his reindeer and his sleigh
08:16I'd be up, up, and away
08:18Yes, I could be Santa
08:21I could be Santa
08:23I could be Santa Claus
08:31Santa, you changed your mind
08:33Oh, joy, oh, happy day
08:37Well, boys, what do you think?
08:39Hi, Mrs. C
08:40Mrs. C?
08:44No good, hmm?
08:45Well, I guess we'll have to move right on
08:47Then to plan B
08:48Plan B?
08:50What's that?
08:51As I see it, Santa doesn't want to go
08:53Because nobody cares, right?
08:55Right
08:56He thinks there's no Christmas spirit
08:58No goodwill, right?
09:00Right
09:00So all you have to do
09:02Is go down there
09:03And find some example
09:05Of Christmas spirit
09:06Left over from last year
09:07Scout up some goodwill
09:09And show him some proof
09:11That somebody cares
09:13Right?
09:14Right
09:14Santa will change his mind
09:16And presto
09:17Christmas is on again
09:19Yippee!
09:20Yippee!
09:21Now, make sure you don't get lost
09:24Lost?
09:26Vixen's made the trip, haven't you, dear?
09:29She'll take you
09:30No problem
09:31Yeah, but, but, but
09:32Now you just hurry along
09:33And gather up enough proof
09:35To change Santa's mind
09:36And we can get on
09:37With Christmas as usual
09:40Bon voyage
09:41Send us a car now and then
09:47I wasn't sure I was doing the right thing
09:50But faced with the idea
09:52Of having no Christmas at all
09:53Drastic measures were called for
09:57Well
09:59What's all that racket out there, Ma?
10:02Oh, it was just one of the reindeer
10:05Getting himself some exercise, dear
10:07What with all the rest
10:09And relaxation around here
10:11Everybody's jumpy as a leapfrog
10:13It just isn't natural
10:15For this time of year
10:16They'll get used to it
10:18I have already
10:21I tell you
10:24This is life
10:25If you say so, dear
10:27Uh, are you thinking
10:29That I'm doing the wrong thing
10:31By staying home?
10:33Of course not, dear
10:35But if you should change your mind
10:37Okay
10:38What are you up to, Ma?
10:41Me?
10:42Up to something?
10:44Oh, ridiculous
10:45Do I look like I'm up to something?
10:48No, you don't look like
10:49You're up to something
10:50But whenever you look like
10:52You're not up to anything
10:55You're up to something
10:57What are you up to, Ma?
10:59Now, it's nothing that need concern you
11:02Poor Jingle
11:05Poor Jangle
11:06Jingle, Jangle
11:09Concern it, Ma
11:10What's going on?
11:12They're only trying to help
11:14Where are they?
11:16Well, they thought they'd just browse around the world
11:18And see if the folks didn't really care about you
11:21And Christmas
11:22You mean they went down there
11:24Out into that?
11:26Cruel world by themselves?
11:29Oh, of course not, silly
11:31Vixen went with them
11:33Vixen?
11:35She's just a baby
11:36Oh, poor little girl
11:42No telling what might happen
11:44Now I'll have to go after them
11:47Do you think you ought to, dear
11:48With your cold and all?
11:51I have to go
11:52Why, those three won't even get past the Miser brothers without
11:56The Miser brothers?
11:57Oh, dear
11:58Oh, I forgot all about those two
12:00Of all the fool things for them to do
12:03Why, if Snow Miser doesn't freeze them
12:06Just for the fun of it
12:07His devil of a brother will put the heat on them for sure
12:12Dasher
12:15On the double
12:18Away, Dasher
12:20Away
12:25The Miser brothers
12:27What a pair
12:28Snow Miser who controls
12:30The northern part of the world
12:32Trying to turn everything to icicles
12:34And his nasty brother trying to keep the south
12:36So hot with nary a snowflake a year
12:40Thanks to me
12:41Vixen and Jingle and Jangle
12:43Were headed right between the two
12:44Where are we?
12:46Where are we heading?
12:47What do you think?
12:49Yeah!
12:51Don't just stand there, you fools
12:53They're part of that Santa Claus gang of goody goodies
12:56They must be on their way
12:58To start everybody dreaming of a white Christmas again
13:02Don't let them get through
13:04Stings their britches for them
13:11Of course, I never dreamed that little Vixen
13:14Would make the mistake of flying right smack
13:17Into Heat Miser's territory
13:31They got away
13:32They got away
13:42Just a baby perhaps
13:44But little Vixen pulled the boys out of a pretty tight spot
13:46I wonder where we are now
13:48If you ask me, still in serious trouble
13:51Look, look down there
13:54South Town, USA
13:55That looks like as good a place as any
13:57To find some Christmas spirit
13:59Take her down, Vixen, old girl
14:05Where is everybody?
14:07Boy, that's what I'd like to know
14:08How can we find any goodwill if we can't even find any people?
14:15All right, buddy, pull over
14:17What's the problem, officer?
14:19What's the problem?
14:20I'll tell you what the problem is
14:22Driving, riding, what do you call that thing anyway?
14:27That's Vixen
14:28Riding a Vixen the wrong way on a one-way street
14:32Crossing the white line
14:33And wearing funny-looking suits on a Sunday
14:37But
14:37Tell it to the judge
14:39Maybe they don't like reindeer in these parts
14:42I know what
14:44We'll make her a disguise
14:45Take your socks off
14:46Take my socks off?
14:48Just do as you're told
14:51And there we have
14:53Instant Rover
14:54Now then
14:55Let's take our dog for a walk
14:57And see if we can find some Christmas spirit and goodwill
15:03Yoo-hoo, madam
15:05Yeah, what do you want?
15:06I wonder if we might speak with you for a moment
15:09Do you believe in Santa Claus?
15:11At my age?
15:13Who are you?
15:15My name is
15:16And what on earth is that?
15:18That's our little puppy dog, Rover
15:20A dog?
15:22Yup
15:22Bark for the lady, Rover
15:39Yeah, I've seen them
15:40Two little fellas wearing goofy clothes
15:43They didn't get into any trouble today, officer
15:46I'll say they got in trouble
15:48Wait till the judge gets finished with them lawbreakers
15:50He'll give them what for
15:54Not much Christmas spirit there
15:56Just as I feared
15:58They're in trouble already
16:00We better find them quick
16:02Poor little guys
16:04Must be scared to death
16:07I'm scared to death
16:09Serves you right
16:11Bark for the lady, Rover
16:13Indeed
16:14Why don't we just skip the whole business and go home?
16:17I'd like to
16:18But I'd hate to let Mrs. C down
16:21We've just got to find a trace of Christmas spirit and goodwill somewhere
16:25I know
16:27Santa's favorites have always been the little ones
16:29The children
16:30Why don't we talk to one of them?
16:32Good idea
16:34There are a whole bunch of children over there
16:37Well, let's talk to them and get out of here
16:39Because I think Vixen's coming down with something
16:41She's got a slight fever
16:43Poor thing
16:44She's just not used to this weather
16:47You just lay down here and shave, girl
16:49We'll be right back
16:52I beg your pardon, young man
16:54May we have a word with you?
16:56Sure
16:57Hey
16:58You're dressed up like a couple of Christmas elves
17:01Haven't you heard the news?
17:03Santa's taking a holiday
17:04Yeah, it was in all the papers
17:07Well, you don't seem to be very upset about it
17:10Upset?
17:11Why should I be upset?
17:12Yeah, what's the big deal?
17:13You mean you don't care if Santa Claus comes or not?
17:16None of you?
17:18Nah
17:19Of course not
17:20It's none of our business
17:21Besides, believing in Santa Claus is for little kids
17:25Yeah
17:26It's a series
17:28Why, it's worse than I thought
17:30If I were you guys, I wouldn't waste my time worrying about Santa Claus
17:34You got a bigger problem
17:36Huh?
17:37What do you mean?
17:38The dog costume's got your pooch
17:40Stop, Steve
17:41Rain here
17:42Napping
17:43You come back here
17:44Listen
17:45Hang on, hang on
17:50A very nice boy, Ignatius Thistlewhite
17:52Nice name, too
17:54He didn't know it at the time
17:56But he was going to be a much bigger help to the two little elves
17:59And to all of us than he could ever imagine
18:01Because a little later
18:03When he got home
18:04Uh, hi there, little fella
18:07Uh, can you spare a moment?
18:10Sure
18:11My name's Ignatius Thistlewhite
18:12Everybody calls me Iggy
18:14What's yours?
18:16Uh, my...
18:17Uh, uh...
18:19Uh, Klaus
18:22Klaus
18:22What can I do for you, Mr. Klaus?
18:25Well, I'm looking for two friends of mine
18:27Uh, tiny little fellas
18:29Uh, red suits
18:31Oh, you must mean the two guys I met at school
18:34They were asking us about Christmas and stuff
18:41Ignatius, was that you I heard sneeze?
18:43Not me, Mom
18:44It was my friend, Mr. Klaus
18:46Well, why don't you bring him inside and talk
18:48And I'll give him something for that cold
18:52Mom
18:53Dad
18:54Meet Mr. Klaus
18:55How do you do?
18:58Uh, I, uh, uh, well
19:01Uh, uh, uh
19:04Uh, uh, uh
19:08Oh, you poor man
19:11Drink this, it'll make you feel much better
19:13Thank you, thank you
19:14Uh, you say my friends were asking you about Christmas?
19:20Yeah, they wanted to know if we kids cared about Santa Claus and all
19:24And, uh, what'd you tell him?
19:27Heck
19:27I don't believe in Santa Claus anymore
19:30That's kid stuff
19:31Isn't it?
19:33Hmm
19:35Just as I thought
19:38You don't believe in Santa Claus
19:39Do you, Dad?
19:40Why, uh, uh, yes
19:42Matter of fact, I do
19:43How about you?
19:45Me?
19:48Why, of course I do
19:53I believe in Santa Claus
19:58Like I believe in love
20:02I believe in Santa Claus
20:07And everything he does
20:11There's no question
20:13There's no question
20:14In my mind
20:16That he does
20:18Exist
20:20Just like love
20:22I know he's there
20:26Waiting to be missed
20:31I believe in Santa Claus
20:36But there was a time
20:40I thought I had grown too old
20:45For such a childish rhyme
20:49He became a dream to me
20:53Till one Christmas night
20:57Someone stood beside my bed
21:02With a beard of white
21:07So you're too old
21:11For Santa Claus
21:14He said with a smile
21:18Then you're too old
21:20For all the things
21:22That make a life worthwhile
21:26For what is happiness
21:29But dreams and do they all come true
21:35Look at me
21:37And tell me, son
21:39What is real to you
21:46Just believe in Santa Claus
21:51Like you believe in love
21:55Just believe in Santa Claus
22:00And everything he does
22:04Wipe that question
22:06From your mind
22:08Yes, he does exist
22:12Just like love
22:14You know he's there
22:18Waiting to be missed
22:22Just like love
22:27I know he's there
22:32Living to be missed
22:42I guess if you're not too old
22:44To still believe
22:45Well, I guess maybe
22:46Oh, by the way, when my friends left the schoolyard, did they say where they were going?
22:57Oh, my gosh. I almost forgot.
23:01They were chasing the dog catcher's truck.
23:04They were what?
23:05He was taking their dog away in his truck, and they were trying to catch him.
23:09Their dog?
23:11Good grief.
23:14Vixen.
23:14Poor little Vixen, so frightened and sick in the dog town.
23:19It was one of those days when things just kept going from bad to worse.
23:35Santa wanted to get Vixen out of that dog town and quick.
23:40Ordinarily, Santa doesn't like to show off his flying reindeer in front of people, but he was in a rush.
23:47Gosh, did you see that?
23:49I certainly did.
23:51I thought there was something different about that man.
23:54Mr. Claus.
23:56He must be.
23:58Wouldn't surprise me a bit.
24:00At the moment, nothing would.
24:02Then his friends must be real elves.
24:04And their dog.
24:06I'll bet that dog was a baby reindeer.
24:09Hmm, that's bad.
24:10They won't know how to take care of a reindeer at the dog pound.
24:13Gee, I wish there was something I could do.
24:16When you've got a big problem, son, it often pays to go right to the top man.
24:20Why don't you stop by the mayor's office?
24:23Tell him the whole story.
24:24He should be able to help.
24:26Hey, good idea, Dad.
24:28Well, it just so happened that Jingle and Jangle had the same good idea.
24:33When the man at the dog pound refused to let Vixen go,
24:36he suggested that they take their case to the mayor.
24:43Now, now, now let me see if I got this straight.
24:49You two are elves.
24:52And that dog down at the pound is a reindeer.
24:58And you want to take him back to Santa Claus.
25:01At the North Pole.
25:06You see, Your Honor, we're here on a special mission.
25:10A secret mission.
25:12A secret mission, I should have guessed.
25:15Because Santa isn't coming this year.
25:18Yep.
25:19He wants to take a holiday.
25:20Oh, no, no, no, no more, please.
25:26I can't take any more reindeer, Santa Claus, elves.
25:31But we are elves.
25:33We're serious.
25:34How can we convince you?
25:37Oh, come on, son.
25:38What kind of fool do you think I am?
25:40You ain't got the chance of a snowball in Southtown
25:44of convincing me one-tenth of your story's on the level.
25:48A snowball in Southtown?
25:50What kind of chance is that?
25:52Not very good.
25:54It never snows here.
25:55Ha, well, not in the last hundred years.
25:59Hey, I've got an idea.
26:01You elves can work magic and all that.
26:04You conjure up a good old-fashioned white Christmas
26:08for us right here in Southtown,
26:10and I'll buy every word you say.
26:13You will?
26:14I'll spring your reindeer from the hoose cow.
26:18I'll call all the mayors in the U.S. of A.
26:22We'll give Santa an official national holiday this year.
26:30It's a deal.
26:33Goodbye, Your Honor.
26:35We've got lots to do.
26:36Yeah.
26:37See you all around the ski slopes, Mr. Mayor.
26:40Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
26:41Woo!
26:42Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
26:44Yay!
26:46It's gonna snow, ho, ho, right here in Dixie.
26:50Ha, ha, ha, ha.
26:50All will be white overnight.
26:52It will be cold.
26:54On Christmas Day, hey, hey, right here in Dixie.
26:59We'll do-si-do in the snow, so I've been told.
27:03We'll build a snowman.
27:05We'll build a snowman.
27:06Our very first.
27:07We'll build a snowman.
27:09We'll build a snowman.
27:09And run to a lot for winter's worst.
27:14It's gonna snow, ho, ho, right here in Dixie.
27:17All will be white overnight.
27:20It will be cold.
27:22It will be cold.
27:23On Christmas Day, hey, hey, right here in Dixie.
27:27We'll do-si-do in the snow, so we've been told.
27:36Now, take it easy, girl.
27:39I've paid your fine.
27:41We'll be going home now.
27:44A real reindeer.
27:45How do you like that?
27:47Aren't they supposed to be up north?
27:49That's why she's so sick.
27:51She can't take this warm weather.
27:54I've got to get her home.
27:55I hope I'm not too late.
28:00There we go, girl.
28:04Now, if anybody should come by asking about her...
28:08Oh, two funny little characters.
28:09They were here about an hour ago, but they couldn't pay the fine.
28:12I told them to go see the mayor.
28:15What am I gonna do about those two?
28:19Now, don't you worry, Vixen.
28:23I'm gonna take care of you first.
28:31Santa was worried about Jingle and Jangle, but he had an even more serious problem on his hands.
28:37If he didn't get Vixen back to the North Pole fast, well, who knows what might happen to the littlest
28:44reindeer of the team.
28:47Things looked pretty grim from where Jingle and Jangle and young Iggy sat.
28:51As far as they knew, Vixen was still in the pound, and they were faced with the problem of making
28:58it snow in Southtown.
29:01Well, all seemed lost, but Jingle got a brilliant idea.
29:07Mrs. Claus, if anybody can figure a way out of this mess, she can.
29:11How about calling Mrs. Santa Claus?
29:14Good idea.
29:16Why didn't I think of that?
29:21She should be along any minute now.
29:24I hope she doesn't wake my folks up.
29:27Here she comes now.
29:32Gosh.
29:34Come on, boys.
29:35Hello, Iggy.
29:36Say hello, Vixen.
29:40Golly.
29:41Hi, Mrs. C.
29:42Where are we going?
29:43To see Snow Miser.
30:02Here he comes now, the big hand.
30:11I'm Mr. White Christmas.
30:14I'm Mr. Snow.
30:17I'm Mr. Icicle.
30:19I'm Mr. Ten Below.
30:22Friends call me Snow Miser.
30:25Whatever I touch
30:26turns to snow in my clutch.
30:29Ha, ha, ha.
30:29I'm too much.
30:31Ha, ha, ha.
30:55I never want to know a day that's over 40 degrees.
31:00I'd rather have a certain 20, 10, 5, and then I'm free.
31:06Woo!
31:12He's Mr. White Christmas.
31:14He's Mr. Snow.
31:16That's right.
31:17He's Mr. Icicle.
31:20He's Mr. Tindaloe.
31:22Friends call me Snow Miser.
31:25Whatever I touch
31:26turns to snow in my clutch.
31:29Ha, ha, ha.
31:31Too much.
31:32Ha, ha.
31:33Too much.
31:37Well, Mrs. Claus, how's your hubby?
31:40Well, I'm afraid he's got a pretty bad cold, Snowy.
31:43Oh, that's a shame, the poor fellow.
31:46He should have come to see me.
31:48I'd have given him a good one.
31:50Ha, ha, ha.
31:52A little chilly humor there.
31:54Don't you dare make fun of Santa Claus like that.
31:56He's the nicest person in the whole world.
31:59Well, of course he is, Sonny.
32:00I love him a lot.
32:02You do?
32:03Well, of course I do, silly.
32:04Why, he's the best advertisement Snow Biz ever had.
32:08Ha, ha, ha.
32:09Ha, ha.
32:10Now, what can I do for you, madam?
32:12We need a snowstorm.
32:14Well, no sooner said than done, my little Icicle.
32:17Where do you want it?
32:19In a town called Southtown, USA.
32:23What?
32:23Hold it.
32:24Hold it.
32:26Hold it.
32:28No can do, Mrs. C.
32:30The South is under the control of my stepbrother, Heat Miser.
32:33And every time I try to send a little refreshing snow down there, what does he do?
32:37He turns it into rain, a fog.
32:40And who needs that?
32:42Well, if I get his okay, will you make it snow?
32:45Sure thing.
32:46But don't get your hopes up.
32:48You'll never get anywhere with that one.
32:50We'll have to try.
32:52Thanks, Snowy.
32:53Ah, don't mention it.
32:55And don't be such a stranger.
32:56Look, stop by with your hubby sometime, and we'll have a blizzard.
33:05Where to now?
33:07You heard the man.
33:08We've got to see Heat Miser.
33:09I was afraid you'd say that.
33:12On, Bliton.
33:26I'm Mr. Green Christmas.
33:29I'm Mr. Sun.
33:32I'm Mr. Heat Blister.
33:35I'm Mr. 101.
33:39They call me Heat Miser.
33:42Whatever I touch
33:44Starts to melt in my clutch.
33:48Ha ha ha!
33:48I'm too much.
33:54He's Mr. Green Christmas.
33:58He's Mr. Sun.
34:01He's Mr. Heat Blister.
34:04He's Mr. 101.
34:06They call me Heat Miser.
34:10Whatever I touch
34:12Starts to melt in my clutch.
34:17He's too much.
34:20I never want to know a day that's under 60 degrees.
34:27I'd rather have it 80, 90, 100 degrees.
34:34Oh, some like it hot, but I like it really hot.
34:40He's Mr. Green Christmas.
34:43He's Mr. Sun.
34:45Sing it!
34:46He's Mr. Heat Blister.
34:50He's Mr. 101.
34:53They call me Heat Miser.
34:56Whatever I touch
34:58Starts to melt in my clutch.
35:02I'm too much.
35:05Too much!
35:10Well, well, well.
35:11If it isn't Mrs. Claus.
35:14Where's your husband?
35:15Out doing another commercial for my brother?
35:17Oh, come now.
35:19You know Santa isn't on your brother's payroll.
35:21Well, then he's grossly unfair.
35:23That's what.
35:25Traipsing around in that stupid sleigh of his.
35:27Stirring up cold winter breezes.
35:29And causing everybody to think fondly of snowball fights.
35:33And sleigh rides.
35:34And ice hockey.
35:36I assure you it's not intentional.
35:39Well, why doesn't he wear a bathing suit and drive a sand buggy?
35:42But we live at the North Pole.
35:44And he could sing the praises of heat and rain.
35:46I'll see what I can do.
35:48In the meantime, will you do us a favor?
35:51I don't see why I should.
35:53Nobody ever does anything for me.
35:55But what is it?
35:56Could you let it snow just for one day in the South?
36:01What?
36:02Snow in the South?
36:04Just for one day.
36:06Never!
36:12Unless there were something in it for me.
36:17Like what?
36:19Oh, like, for instance, if a little bit of northern territory were turned over to me,
36:26shall we say, the North Pole?
36:29Well, heavens, I don't know.
36:32That would be up to your brother, not me.
36:34Well, why don't you give the tutti-fruity snow cone a buzz on the hotline?
36:39See what he says.
36:43Hello?
36:45Snowy, this is Mrs. Claus.
36:47Hi there, sugarplum.
36:48How'd you make out with a hothead?
36:50I heard that, you snowball.
36:52Oh, my goodness.
36:53Speak of the devil.
36:54Madam, kindly state your business with that drippy snowman and get him out of here.
37:00Mind your blood pressure, hotcakes.
37:01Mother warned you about that low boiling point of yours.
37:04You think you're hot stuff just because Mother likes you best.
37:07Boys, boys, now please don't fight.
37:10Well, if I can't have a little fun, I might as well leave.
37:12Your brother agreed to let it snow in the south.
37:15He did.
37:16Of course, there has to be a small concession on your part.
37:20Oh, really?
37:21What does the flaming fool want this time?
37:23The North Pole?
37:25Uh, uh, uh, yes, as a matter of fact.
37:29What?
37:31I told you he wouldn't cooperate.
37:33Cooperate?
37:34Surrender the North Pole you call cooperate?
37:37I could mind to chill your embers for you.
37:39Oh, yeah?
37:42All right, enough of this.
37:44I hate to do this to you boys, but you leave me no choice.
37:48I'm going over your heads.
37:50You're kidding.
37:51You wouldn't dare.
37:52I would, and I will.
37:55Mrs. Claus!
37:57See what you did, you old blizzard?
37:59She's gonna tell Mother.
38:00What I did, you hot dog.
38:03It's all your fault.
38:04Come along.
38:05Well, we're not really going to do it, are we, Mrs. Claus?
38:08I mean, we're not actually going to disturb her.
38:13Oh, she's not serious.
38:15I mean, we're not really.
38:17Are we actually going to see her?
38:20Yes.
38:21No.
38:23Who?
38:24Where are we going?
38:26Who are we going to see?
38:27We're going right to the top, Iggy, my boy.
38:31Mrs. C is through fooling around.
38:34We're gonna see none other than Mother Nature.
38:38Oh, my gosh.
38:40I must admit, I was more than a little nervous myself.
38:44I'd never met Mother Nature, but I knew she didn't like to be disturbed.
39:00As I said, I was pretty nervous myself.
39:02I had no idea what to expect of Mother Nature, but frightened as we were, we were that determined
39:10that Santa should have his holiday.
39:14Oh, so they gave you a hard time, did they, Mrs. Claus?
39:19Oh, I'm sure they didn't mean to.
39:21Oh, yes, they did.
39:23They're nasty little boys, both of them.
39:25Oh, well, I wouldn't say that...
39:28Oh, I'll straighten them out for you.
39:30Oh, you, children.
39:42What is it, Mother dear?
39:45Now, Mrs. Claus made a very simple request.
39:50Now, you let a little snow fall in Southland.
39:55And you allow just one nice spring day at the North Pole.
40:02All you have to do is compromise.
40:05At this time of the year especially, Santa needs some examples of the Christmas spirit.
40:12And we must set a good example for the people down there to follow.
40:16So, boys, please!
40:21I won't do it!
40:23Me neither!
40:24Stop it!
40:25Stop it!
40:26Yes, Mother dear.
40:29Hmm.
40:30They're really nice boys, Mrs. Claus.
40:33Oh, sometimes they bicker.
40:35But you'll have no further trouble with them.
40:38I do hope Santa enjoys his holiday.
40:42How can I ever thank you?
40:44Oh, don't mention it.
40:46Ta-ta!
40:58Well, little girl, I guess you're going to be all right after all.
41:05Hello, what's this?
41:08Dear Santa, I had to go meet Jingle and Jangle.
41:12We'll be back soon.
41:15That's a relief.
41:17I'll look after those two.
41:19She will.
41:21Now I can stay home and look after my cold.
41:26Ah!
41:28Ah!
41:35Hey, kids, look at the snow. It's really snowing.
41:41Yes, dear, I'll be home early.
41:44Well, I should be leaving here in a few minutes.
41:47What's that?
41:50Don't forget to wear my what?
41:54Galoshes? What on earth for?
41:58Oh, it's snowing, isn't it? In that case, I'll...
42:01What?
42:03Snow in Southtown?
42:05I guess those fellas weren't pulling my leg about Santa Claus after all.
42:12Santa, wake up.
42:14Look at these headlines.
42:17Yes, listen to this.
42:18Mayors declare legal holiday for Santa.
42:21Snow falls for first time in Southtown.
42:25And get this.
42:26Day off for Santa.
42:29Yes, and these all say the same.
42:32Well, Mama, I guess you've proved your point.
42:35There is some goodwill in the hearts of all men at this time of year.
42:40This, especially this, proves it.
42:44The world gave me a vacation.
43:00Fast as a hurricane, children hurled the happy message around the world.
43:07Over each continent, isle and isthmus, let's give Santa a Merry Christmas.
43:12With snow, the earth was already whitening.
43:16They rolled up their sleeves and worked like lightning.
43:19They opened their piggy banks and racked their brains.
43:23They chartered buses and special trains to reach the pole by the 24th.
43:28It was all their goal.
43:30East, west, north, and south came gifts and gifts and gifts to spare.
43:36From clever children everywhere, tots who hadn't a penny to spend wrote him letters signed a friend.
43:44And they had more fun, that strange December, they said, than any they could remember.
43:53East, west, west, west, west, and southern.
44:10What's this?
44:12Why, it's a letter for me.
44:14Dear Santa
44:17I'll have a blue Christmas without you
44:26I'll be so blue thinking about you
44:39Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
44:49Won't mean a thing if you're not here with me
44:56I'll have a blue Christmas that's certain
45:05And when that blue heartache starts hurting
45:16You'll be doing alright with your Christmas about
45:27But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas
45:46Santa, look, presents from the children
45:49Christmas present for Santa Claus
45:51Can you imagine that?
45:53Santa was silent for a minute
45:55His eyes looked bright, but a tear stood in it
45:58And then he blew his nose like a trumpet blast
46:06God bless my soul
46:08He said at last
46:10By the big Borealis
46:12By my maps and charts
46:14I didn't know children had such kind hearts
46:18How could a man feel glad or proud?
46:22Then he turned away and blew his nose louder
46:31Isn't it wonderful, dear?
46:33When we told all the children you needed a holiday
46:36They all agreed
46:37So this year, they brought Christmas to you
46:40A holiday?
46:43Nonsense!
46:45Well, why is everybody standing around?
46:49There's work to be done
46:50Load up the sleigh
46:52Harness the team
46:53Fetch my coat
46:55But what about your gout?
46:57And the crick in your spine
46:59And your aches?
47:00Oh, my back feels fine
47:03Never felt younger
47:05Never felt stronger
47:07Haven't got a symptom any longer
47:11Hooray!
47:13Now pile all those toys inside
47:16There's no time to waste
47:19Tonight, we ride!
47:22Hooray!
47:24Hooray!
47:28Hooray!
47:29Woohoo!
47:34Wow!
47:35I don't believe it
47:37Hello!
47:39Here comes Santa Claus
47:41Here comes Santa Claus
47:42Right down Santa Claus Lane
47:44Big Zinimits in all his reindeer
47:47Pulling on the rain
47:49Bells are ringing
47:51Children singing
47:52All is merry and bright
47:54Hang your stockings
47:56Hang your stockings
47:56And say your prayers
47:57Cause Santa Claus comes tonight
48:01Here comes Santa Claus
48:02Here comes Santa Claus
48:03Right down Santa Claus Lane
48:05He's got a bag that's filled with toys
48:08For boys and girls again
48:10He does sleigh bells
48:12Jingle jangle
48:13What a beautiful sign
48:16Jump in there
48:17Cover up your head
48:19Cause Santa Claus comes to the night
48:32Cause Santa Claus comes to the night
48:34Well, I've heard the old people often say
48:38That there never was such a Christmas day
48:40And that's one reason
48:42You may believe why children are merry
48:44On Christmas Eve
48:46You know yourself
48:48As you hang your stockings
48:50It doesn't matter if the winds are knocking
48:52Though the great gale roars
48:54Though nobody else would budge outdoors
48:58Snug in your bed
49:00Snug in your bed
49:00While the tempest drums
49:01You can count your blessings
49:03On fingers and thumbs
49:04For yearly
49:05Newly
49:07Faithfully
49:08Truly
49:08Somehow
49:09Santa Claus
49:11Always
49:11Always
49:12Always
49:12Always
49:12Always
49:12Always
49:12Always
49:12Always
49:13Always
49:15Always
49:16Santa
49:16Woke for the night
49:18Feeling things weren't right
49:20And he was heard to say
49:24Get the reindeer hitched up, mama
49:26I'm getting up
49:27Get those gifts loaded up on the sleigh
49:31There'll be no year without a Santa Claus
49:36I dreamed unhappy things
49:39About a year without a Santa Claus
49:45And all are joy and Santa Claus
50:00I'm getting up
50:02I'm getting up
50:03I'm getting up
50:03I'm getting up

50:09I'm getting up
50:09I'm getting up
50:09I'm getting up
50:09I'm getting up
50:10I'm getting up
50:10I'm getting up
50:11I'm getting up
50:12I'm getting up
50:14I'm getting up
