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: What does this have to do with Christmas?

''Major Monogram: 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: "O'er," sir?

''Major Monogram: It's a contraction. It means "over."  Carl: It's a bit archaic...''

''Major Monogram: 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: Really, sir?

Major Monogram: 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!
