Shopping is a pleasant choir

When you go to Harry's store

He's got toys that are the best

So much better than the rest

He's got planes that loop the loop

He sold me my hula hoop

All the games and toys galore

Alright fellas, ready to sing your song?

'''''Simon & Theodore:'''''

I'd say we are.

'''''Dave:'''''

'''''The Chipmunks:'''''

Christmas, Christmas time is near

'''''Santa Claus:'''''
  +
Alvin rushed out of the studio and over to the home of Tommy Waterford.
  +
Tommy was lying in bed looking very, very pale.
  +
Why he hardly had the strength to smile when Alvin entered the room.
  +
Being a new boy in school, Tommy didn't have any friends and that certainly didn't make him any healthier.
  +
So when Alvin asked him to be his friend, well I was certain that Tommy looked healthier right then and there for you see friendship is a wonderful medicine.
  +
Before Alvin left for the recording studio, he gave Tommy a very special Christmas present, his very own golden Echo Harmonica.
  +
  +
'''''Alvin:'''''
  +
I never cease to amaze myself, a heart of gold.
  +
  +
'''''Santa Claus:'''''
  +
Ah, yes.
  +
Well anyway, a few minutes later Alvin burst in the recording studio with renewed energy.
  +
  +
'''''Alvin:'''''
  +
Hello everybody!
  +
  +
'''''Simon & Theodore:'''''
  +
Hi Alvin!

Christmas, Christmas time is near
  +
Time for joy and time for cheer

We've been good, but we can't last

Hurry Christmas, hurry fast
  +
  +
Want a plane that loops the loop

'''''Alvin:'''''

Me I want a hula hoop

'''''The Chipmunks:'''''

We can hardly stand the wait

'''''Alvin:'''''
  +
Dave, I've been asking for the hula hoop for years.
  +
I would like to ask for something new, like roller skates or a new stereo.
  +
But I just got to get that hula hoop first.
  +
Please Dave.
  +
I feel I've been very patient.
  +
  +
'''''Dave:'''''
  +
Alvin, just finish the song.
  +
We'll talk about it later.
  +
  +
'''''The Chipmunks:'''''
  +
Want a plane that loops the loop

'''''Alvin:'''''

I still want a hula hoop

'''''The Chipmunks:'''''
  +
We can hardly stand the wait
  +
Please Christmas don't be late
  +
  +
We can hardly stand the wait
  +
Please Christmas don't be late

  +
'''''Dave:'''''
  +
Very good boys!
  +
Oh Alvin, this came for you while you were singing.
  +
  +
'''''Alvin:'''''
  +
A hula hoop!
  +
Gee, thanks Dave.
  +
Now I would like some roller skates, a stereo, a swimming pool, and, yes, a computer tennis game.
  +
And my very own bedroom.
  +
  +
'''''Theodore:'''''
  +
Wake up Santa.
  +
  +
'''''Santa Claus:'''''
  +
Yes. Oh, now where was I?
  +
Oh, I remember.
  +
So Rudolph flew out the window.
  +
  +
'''''Alvin:'''''
  +
That's the wrong story Santa.
  +
I had just unselfishly given my beloved harmonica away.
  +
  +
'''''Santa Claus:'''''
  +
Given your hama-
  +
Oh yes, yes, that's right; now I remember.
  +
The next day while the boys were decorating the Christmas tree, Dave entered the room.
  +
  +
'''''Dave:'''''
  +
You know boys with Christmas get around the corner, why don't we take a few minutes to think about what this holiday really means.
  +
  +
'''''The Chipmunks:'''''
  +
Presents!
  +
  +
'''''Dave:'''''
  +
Well Christmas isn't just presents.
  +
  +
'''''The Chipmunks:'''''
  +
It's not?
  +
  +
'''''Dave:'''''

Nope and as a matter of fact I just finished writing a song about the meaning of Christmas that I want ya to sing.

Here are the words, and Alvin, please sing them correctly.

Hurry Christmas, hurry fast

Want a plane that loops the loop

Original Version (Without Dialogue)

Chipmunk song HQ

Christmas, Christmas time is near
Time for toys and time for cheer
We've been good, but we can't last
Hurry Christmas, hurry fast

Want a plane that loops the loop
Me I want a hula hoop
We can't hardly stand the wait
Please Christmas don't be late

Want a plane that loops the loop
I still want a hula hoop
We can hardly stand the wait

I can't concentrate Dave.
Let's take a break.

Dave:
Take a break!

Alvin:
Thanks Dave!

Santa Claus:
Alvin rushed out of the studio and over to the home of Tommy Waterford.
Tommy was lying in bed looking very, very pale.
Why he hardly had the strength to smile when Alvin entered the room.
Being a new boy in school, Tommy didn't have any friends and that certainly didn't make him any healthier.
So when Alvin asked him to be his friend, well I was certain that Tommy looked healthier right then and there for you see friendship is a wonderful medicine.
Before Alvin left for the recording studio, he gave Tommy a very special Christmas present, his very own golden Echo Harmonica.

Alvin:
I never cease to amaze myself, a heart of gold.

Santa Claus:
Ah, yes.
Well anyway, a few minutes later Alvin burst in the recording studio with renewed energy.

Alvin:
Hello everybody!

Simon & Theodore:
Hi Alvin!

Alvin:
Me I want a hula hoop

The Chipmunks:
We can hardly stand the wait
Please Christmas don't be late

Alvin:
Dave, I've been asking for the hula hoop for years.
I would like to ask for something new, like roller skates or a new stereo.
But I just got to get that hula hoop first.
Please Dave.
I feel I've been very patient.

Dave:
Alvin, just finish the song.
We'll talk about it later.

Oh Alvin, this came for you while you were singing.

Alvin:
A hula hoop!
Gee, thanks Dave.
Now I would like some roller skates, a stereo, a swimming pool, and, yes, a computer tennis game.
And my very own bedroom.

Theodore:
Wake up Santa.

Santa Claus:
Yes. Oh, now where was I?
Oh, I remember.
So Rudolph flew out the window.

Alvin:
That's the wrong story Santa.
I had just unselfishly given my beloved harmonica away.

Santa Claus:
Given your hama-
Oh yes, yes, that's right; now I remember.
The next day while the boys were decorating the Christmas tree, Dave entered the room.

Dave:
You know boys with Christmas get around the corner, why don't we take a few minutes to think about what this holiday really means.

The Chipmunks:
Presents!

Dave:
Well Christmas isn't just presents.

The Chipmunks:
It's not?

Dave:
Nope and as a matter of fact I just finished writing a song about the meaning of Christmas that I want ya to sing.
Here are the words, and Alvin, please sing them correctly.

Alvin:
You got it Dave.

A Very Merry Chipmunk (Kenny G) Version

Simon:
Oh Theodore. Do you hear that poor animal?

Theodore:
That's no animal.
That's Alvin learning how to play the saxophone.

Simon:
Does he know which end to blow in?

Alvin:
Everyone tells me to forget the harmonica. The sax is the instrument of the 90s.
And it's all because of Kenny G. I could kill him!.

Kenny G:
Hey Alvin.

Alvin:
Kenny! Hahaha, what a present surprise. Ah, listen.
Can you teach me how to play this thing?

Kenny G:
Well, ah I'd love to Alvin, but ah, I'm really busy.

Alvin:
Hahahaho, well let me tell you something Mr. multi-platinum, Grammy big-shot.
You'd better be offly nice to the little people you meet on the way up
 'cause you meet the same ones on the way down.

Kenny G:
Simon, is he always this obnoxious?

Simon:
Always.

Kenny G:
Alright, look. You put your fingers here.

Alvin:
Great, thanks Kenny. Now do I suck or blow?

Simon:
You definitely suck.

Alvin:
Okay. Here goes. How about them apples?

Kenny G:
Well, that's not a, a terrible start.
But do you mind if I show you how it's suppose to sound?

Simon & Theodore:
Show him, please!

Alvin:
Simon, I think he's a little threatened by my natural ability.

Simon:
Oh yeah. That must be it.

The Chipmunks:
Christmas, Christmas time is near

Alvin:
Ahaha, you can go now.

Kenny G:
Don't you want me to stay and show you a few more notes, ah-

Alvin:
You can GO now.

Trivia

  • Ross Bagdasarian, Sr. finished writing the song on November 7th, 1958.[1]
  • Three versions of the song were created before the Bagdasarian family decided on only one to be released: an instrumental, one called "In a Village Park," and "The Chipmunk Song."[2]
  • This is the first song to officially be credited to The Chipmunks and is their musical debut.
  • More than 2.5 million copies were sold in three weeks, the fastest selling record in 1958.[2]
  • The song charted #1 on the Hot 100 in 1958 and maintained its position for four weeks before falling in 1959.[3]
  • The song remained the only holiday-themed song to ever chart #1 on the Hot 100 until December 2019; Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You" finally reached #1 on the chart 61 years later, 25 years after her song's original release.[4]
  • The song was nominated for four Grammy awards in 1959, winning three.[5]
  • On the episode Merry Christmas, Mr. Carroll, "The Chipmunk Song" was shown to be made by the presents they gave Dave (pencil, eraser, and a piece of paper).
  • In the special A Chipmunk Christmas, "Time for toys" is replaced with "Time for joy."
  • In Ice Age 3 Dawn of the Dinosaurs, the possums Crash and Eddie sing the first line of the song when they find out that their voices are high pitched.
