[ outside the mess hall on a reasonably well-constructed stage are two probably-not-dressed-for-the-weather musicians revving up for a post-Christmas carol-battle ]
Santa baby, just slip a sable under the tree, for me.
Been an awful good girl,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Santa baby, a '54 convertible too, light blue,
I'll wait up for you dear,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Think of all the fun I've missed,
Think of all the fellows that I haven't kissed,
Next year I could be just as good,
If you check off my Christmas list...
