(to the song Over the River and Through the Woods) Over the carpet and through the door To the Christmas tree we go We ferrets know how To strip every bough Of lights and tinsel too-oo! Climb up the branches, head straight for the top Start flinging each shiny ball We'll sing and we'll prance We'll dook and we'll dance Each time we hear one of them fall. Climb down the branches, And cross the room Head straight for our hidey-hole We've got lots of stuff - ooh, look at that muff We've almost achieved our go-al. Stash all of the goodies, then take a nap Tomorrow's another day. We'll start out again And steal a new pen For Christmas is here - hooray!
