Lyrics
Perry the Platypus
Is a lovely shade of teal
From his duckbilled nose to his web-bed toes
And his nerves were made of steel
Carl (speaking): What does this have to do with Christmas?
Major Monogram (speaking): Well, I'm...I'm just describing him so that people have a mental picture. It...it matches the original song.
The night before Christmas
'Twas a crisis at the Pole
'Cause old Doofenshmirtz, he had done his worst
And a sleigh that day he stole
Doof took it on a joyride
Just as far as he was able
But Doof, that goof, he lost control
Ran into the reindeers' stable
Now all the reindeer
Were on crutches or in traction
So old Agent P, he knew that he
Must spring right into action
Look at that platypus, look at that platypus
Look at that platypus go
Look at that platypus, look at that platypus
Flying o'er the snow
Carl (speaking): "O'er," sir?
Major Monogram (speaking): It's a contraction. It means "over."
Carl (speaking): It's a bit archaic...
Major Monogram (speaking): It's traditional, Carl. Get o'er it.
So the reindeer were out of commission
And Santa's sleigh was trashed
I'd explain it more, but we've been there before
It doesn't need to be rehashed
Santa Claus was freaking out
Thought he'd have to scrap his run
He was torn inside, for without a ride
He knew Christmas Day was done
But then o'er the horizon
Came a light bright as a star
Cutting through the night was the two headlights
Of Perry's hovercar
Perry the Platypus
Had a mission at the Pole
If he could lend a hand in that frozen land
He'd help Santa reach his goal
There must have been some magic in
That platypus-themed hovercar
For when Santa saw the gas gauge
He knew it could take him far
Carl (speaking): Really, sir?
Major Monogram (speaking): They want this album yesterday, all right?
Perry the Platypus
Took Santa on his way
And he came through like we knew he'd do
And saved our Christmas Day!
