'''Arthur'''<br />

37 presents? Wow, Muffy. This is probably your biggest Christmas ever. But why do you look so unhappy? Did you and Francine have a fight?<br />

'''Muffy'''<br />

''I got a clubhouse''<br />
''I think it's the biggest in the world''<br />
''I'd be the princess''<br />
''And Francine a serving girl''<br />
''It'd be so neat''<br />
''And if she was sweet''<br />
''I might even let her be queen''<br />
''But not this year''<br />
''<nowiki>'</nowiki>Cause I can't call Francine''

''Check out this toy train''<br />
''Something Francine would love to use''<br />
''Maybe she'd drive it''<br />
''While I eat cake in the caboose''<br />
''I'd be warm in my stole''<br />
''While she shoveled coal''<br />
''Till there was nothing we hadn't seen''<br />
''But not this year''<br />
''<nowiki>'</nowiki>Cause I can't call Francine''

''Oh, these video games are just so lame''<br />
''When you only play the computer''<br />
''And who will I take to see Swan Lake?''<br />
''I guess I will bring my tutor''<br />
Oh, that'll be a lot of fun.

''Here is a puzzle''<br />
''It's in 20,000 pieces''<br />
''Maybe I'll finish it''<br />
''By the time I have grandnieces''

''Oh, I got pretty dolls, stuffed animals, a miniature submarine''<br />
''But what good are presents?''<br />
''I find them so unpleasant''<br />
''Who wants presents if I can't share them with... Francine?''<br />
''Francine, Francine''<br />
''Oh!''
