00:00:00Thank you, Doctor, for dropping by tonight.
00:00:21I wish I could tell you that Tommy's going to get well by Christmas, but I can't.
00:00:26To tell you the truth, I've tried everything possible.
00:00:30I know you have, Doctor.
00:00:32I just wish we knew what was wrong with him.
00:00:35Tommy's not even interested in his music anymore.
00:00:38His sister reads to him every night, hoping something would snap him out of it.
00:00:42Where were we, Tommy?
00:00:44Oh, I remember.
00:00:47The handsome prince was searching everywhere for the beautiful maiden.
00:00:56Gee, what a wonderful day.
00:01:07A perfect day for Christmas shopping.
00:01:10Let's go.
00:01:20Hey, wake up, wake up.
00:01:22Only five more days till Christmas.
00:01:24Let's wake him up with a thorn.
00:01:29Wake up, Dave.
00:01:32It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.
00:01:36Time to get up everywhere you go.
00:01:39Wake up, Dave.
00:01:40Take a look in the five and ten.
00:01:42Glistening once again.
00:01:44With candy canes and silver lanes aglow.
00:01:47Good morning.
00:01:47Good morning.
00:01:47Good morning.
00:01:54Theodore, Simon, Alvin.
00:02:01Yes, David, dear.
00:02:03I am fully aware that there are only five more days before Christmas.
00:02:09And 370 days until next Christmas.
00:02:13It's a wonderful day.
00:02:17It's the greatest of the year.
00:02:23Time for singing and dancing and dancing.
00:02:27You can't just run in here and wake me up and...
00:02:30Cheers.
00:02:31Look at all of those presents just waiting.
00:02:35Wait a minute, you guys.
00:02:37There by the tree.
00:02:40We are...
00:02:41Gee, that sounds pretty.
00:02:42Time for you and I hope the rest are for me.
00:02:48Hear those bells that are ringing.
00:02:52Oh, Christmas time is so near.
00:02:57It's a wonderful day.
00:03:01It's the greatest time of the year.
00:03:06Working on Christmas vacation.
00:03:09It's criminal.
00:03:09Oh, come on, you guys.
00:03:11It's only a little recording session.
00:03:14It works.
00:03:16Maybe I'll even let you play your harmonica, Alvin.
00:03:19My harmonica.
00:03:20You see, Alvin, it's your responsibility to...
00:03:42Right, Dave.
00:03:43Responsibility.
00:03:44Responsibility.
00:03:45We'll share the responsibility.
00:03:47You go on and get the studio ready and we'll go window shopping.
00:03:52Well, that sounds fair enough.
00:03:54Hey, don't be late.
00:03:57Let's go on.
00:03:59Oh, Christmas time is so near.
00:04:01Well, Christmas time is so near.
00:04:05Oh, Christmas time is so near.
00:04:06Stockings hung with hair, soon Santa will be here
00:04:10What fun it is to shop all day when Dave is nowhere near
00:04:14Oh, Christmastime, Christmastime, Christmastime is here
00:04:18See, that's your very own twin brother
00:04:27You're the best harmonicas in the whole world
00:04:31Oh, Mommy, there it is
00:04:34It's the golden echo harmonica
00:04:37It's the one Tommy wants more than anything in the world
00:04:42Can't we buy it for Mommy?
00:04:44Oh, it would make him feel so much better
00:04:47I know, darling
00:04:48Maybe next year we can afford it
00:04:51But Tommy will just die if he doesn't get his harmonica
00:04:54Don't say that, darling
00:04:56You know how very, very sick Tommy is
00:05:00We must save everything we can
00:05:02Just to see that Tommy makes it through Christmas
00:05:06What does that mean, Mommy?
00:05:11Make it through Christmas
00:05:12I still don't understand, Mommy
00:05:15He won't make what through Christmas?
00:05:17Ready, fellas?
00:05:27Ready whenever you are, Dave
00:05:29Christmas, Christmas, time is near
00:05:33Time for joy
00:05:35Hold it, Alvin, you're a little flat
00:05:37Let's try it again
00:05:39We've been good
00:05:40Hold it, Alvin
00:05:42Well?
00:05:48I'll tell you what, Dave
00:05:49Let's take a break
00:05:51Take a break?
00:05:53Gee, thanks, Dave
00:05:54Alvin!
00:05:56Mommy, it's Alvin
00:06:16Tommy, you have a guest
00:06:19It's probably an ill-a-doctor
00:06:22Well, no, I'm not a doctor
00:06:25I'm a sort of delivery boy
00:06:27Oh, hi, Alvin
00:06:30What are you delivering?
00:06:32More medicine?
00:06:34No
00:06:34You see, Tommy
00:06:35They had this kind of prize contest
00:06:39Down at the department store
00:06:41In the music department
00:06:44And, uh, somebody put your name in
00:06:47And, well, anyway, Tommy
00:06:50You won first prize
00:06:51And here it is
00:06:53The Golden Echo Harmonica
00:06:55The Golden Echo Harmonica
00:07:00Well, gotta go
00:07:04Merry Christmas
00:07:06Mr. Seville
00:07:13You're running out of studio time
00:07:15Well, I guess we'll just have to record Alvin later
00:07:18Ready, fellas?

00:08:02I'll get it
00:08:09Hello
00:08:10Oh, hi, Mr. Berkheimer
00:08:12No, of course
00:08:14It's not too late
00:08:15To talk business
00:08:16Oh, yes
00:08:18I intend to follow through
00:08:19With your suggestion
00:08:20Boy, Alvin
00:08:21I can't believe
00:08:22You gave your harmonica away
00:08:24Me either
00:08:25But I just knew
00:08:26It would make Tommy
00:08:27Feel better
00:08:27Did you tell Dave?
00:08:29I can't tell Dave
00:08:31Dave gave me
00:08:32That harmonica
00:08:33I'll have to save my money
00:08:35And get another one
00:08:37After Christmas
00:08:37It's all set for Christmas Eve
00:08:40That's great
00:08:41It's Carnegie Hall
00:08:44You guys are going to play there
00:08:45For a sold-out audience
00:08:48Gee whiz
00:08:50Fantastic
00:08:51Oh, boy
00:08:52You want Alvin
00:08:54To do a harmonica solo?
00:09:00Harmonica?
00:09:01But Alvin gave it on
00:09:02How about that, Alvin?
00:09:05Wonderful, Dave
00:09:06Alvin's so excited about it
00:09:09He can't wait
00:09:10Yeah
00:09:11Now I can't wait
00:09:13Until after Christmas
00:09:14To get that harmonica
00:09:15I've got to make some money
00:09:17Before Christmas
00:09:18And
00:09:19That's the neighbor's dog
00:09:21Hey
00:09:23I've got a great idea
00:09:25Now here's what
00:09:27I want you guys to do
00:09:28Go up to the attic
00:09:29Then get the neighbor's dog
00:09:31Hurry, hurry
00:09:45Get your picture taken
00:09:47With Santa Claus
00:09:48Only 25 cents
00:09:50Everybody ready?
00:09:53Camera's ready
00:09:54And all the reindeer
00:09:55Are hooked up
00:09:56Okay, bring on the customers
00:10:10Okay, shoot
00:10:26Wait a minute, Sonny
00:10:41Not so fast
00:10:43What's going on out there?
00:10:50What's all this?
00:10:52We're helping Alvin make money
00:10:54Alvin
00:10:56I mean, not Alvin
00:10:58It's Santa
00:10:59All right, Santa
00:11:00I'd like a word
00:11:01With you and your elves
00:11:02I'm sorry
00:11:04You'll have to wait in line
00:11:05Like everybody else
00:11:07Now just a minute
00:11:08And what's your name
00:11:10Little girl?
00:11:11Cindy Lou
00:11:12What a nice cat
00:11:14You have, Cindy Lou
00:11:15Cat?
00:11:16Cat!
00:11:19Oh no!
00:11:30Alvin
00:11:31Yes, Dave
00:11:33You want a word with us?
00:11:39I'd say it's about time
00:11:41We remember how lucky
00:11:43We all are
00:11:43And think about
00:11:45The real meaning of Christmas
00:11:47You remember that poem
00:11:48I wrote a few years ago?
00:11:50The Spirit of Christmas?
00:11:52Oh no, Dave
00:11:54Not that again
00:11:55Honest, Dave
00:11:57We remember it very well
00:11:59We still don't know
00:12:01What to do about Carnegie Hall
00:12:03To get the Christmas spirit means
00:12:07To give it
00:12:09Money
00:12:10We've got to make more money
00:12:12You don't make a Christmas list
00:12:15You sell it
00:12:16Maybe somebody will give you some money
00:12:19It's what you give to others
00:12:22Your sisters and your brothers
00:12:25And especially
00:12:26To those you've never met
00:12:29I've never met anybody
00:12:31That would give me money
00:12:32Yes, Christmas, Christmas, Christmas time
00:12:36A giving, giving, giving time
00:12:39So let's all give a cheer for
00:12:43Money
00:12:44Money
00:12:46And just what is this talk about money?
00:12:49Well, you see, Dave
00:12:51Alvin's just gotta get some money
00:12:53I see
00:12:54And just what does Alvin need money for?
00:12:58Uh, for an operation
00:12:59Well, actually, Dave
00:13:01Alvin wants to buy a present
00:13:03Well, that's different
00:13:05And who is this present for?
00:13:08It's for himself
00:13:09For himself?
00:13:12So that's what the Spirit of Christmas means to you, Alvin?
00:13:15Buying presents for yourself?
00:13:18But
00:13:18You better go on up to your room
00:13:20And think about the meaning of Christmas
00:13:21It means a lot more than making money
00:13:24Or buying yourself presents
00:13:26But, Dave
00:13:28No buts about it
00:13:30Get in your room
00:13:32You should have stuck with my line
00:13:35About the operation
00:13:36Maybe you should have told him about Tommy
00:13:39Dave, can I talk to you a minute?
00:13:44There's nothing more to say, Alvin
00:13:46Are you still mad at me, Dave?
00:13:49No
00:13:49I'm just very disappointed
00:13:52Good night
00:13:53How can you play a harmonica
00:14:00At Carnegie Hall
00:14:02If you don't have a harmonica?
00:14:06So I gotta have money
00:14:10Money
00:14:11Money
00:14:13Money
00:14:14Alvin
00:14:21I'm very disappointed in you
00:14:24Very disappointed
00:14:27You've lost the spirit of Christmas
00:14:30But, Dave
00:14:32You don't understand
00:14:34Did someone knock?
00:14:37Is this the loan department?
00:14:40Loan department?
00:14:41Where?
00:14:41Where?
00:14:42Oh, there you are
00:14:44So you're the loan department
00:14:46No
00:14:47I was hoping you were the loan department
00:14:49Cause I need a loan
00:14:51Well, of course you're a loan
00:14:53There's nobody with you
00:14:55There's so little time
00:14:56And so much to do
00:14:57Like filling that empty little heart of yours
00:15:00With the spirit of Christmas
00:15:01But I haven't lost the Christmas spirit
00:15:04I...
00:15:05Well, of course you haven't
00:15:06I haven't finished inventing it yet
00:15:09Not the wheel
00:15:11Not the wild west
00:15:13Not even the baby
00:15:15Was as difficult to invent
00:15:17As the spirit of Christmas
00:15:19But I have begun
00:15:21With Santa Claus
00:15:23That's Santa for Santa
00:15:25And Claus for Claus
00:15:26Santa Claus
00:15:28A kind man
00:15:29With a beard
00:15:30And a hat
00:15:32One look at Santa
00:15:34And you'll be overflowing
00:15:36With Christmas spirit
00:15:37Voila!
00:15:41That Santa Claus?
00:15:42If that isn't Santa Claus
00:15:45I'll eat that cute
00:15:46Chubby little reindeer over there
00:15:48There's nothing quite like
00:16:02The exhilaration of Discovery
00:16:04So far
00:16:06Perfect!
00:16:08You don't understand
00:16:09I haven't lost the Christmas spirit
00:16:11I need money to buy an echo harmonica
00:16:15Money?
00:16:16What is money?
00:16:18You buy things with it
00:16:19Like harmonicas
00:16:20It sounds like a wonderful invention
00:16:23Yes!
00:16:24I will have to invent money
00:16:27It will go perfectly
00:16:29With my last invention
00:16:31The I owe you
00:16:33That's ma for ma
00:16:38And honey for honey
00:16:40Money
00:16:41Not money
00:16:42Money
00:16:43I need money
00:16:47Money
00:16:48Money
00:16:49Maybe I was a little hard on Alvin
00:16:52I think I'll tell him that I
00:16:54Money
00:16:55I need money
00:16:57I give up
00:17:02Before you go to the store
00:17:03To buy the harmonica
00:17:05I'd like to donate this
00:17:07To the cause
00:17:07A cookie?
00:17:10A cookie?
00:17:11Oh, I forgot
00:17:12I used up my allowance
00:17:14Buying cookies
00:17:15Ha ha ha ha ha ha
00:17:16Here's the money
00:17:20I was saving
00:17:21For a new book
00:17:22Gee, thanks fellas

00:17:53For Tommy
00:17:53That's a miracle
00:17:55Excuse me a minute
00:17:57Mrs. Waterford
00:17:58Well
00:17:59It's about time you guys
00:18:01Told me the whole story

00:18:09Pardon me young man
00:18:10But I need help
00:18:12Me?
00:18:13You need my help?
00:18:15I knew it
00:18:16I just knew that you would understand
00:18:18But how can I
00:18:21I thought so
00:18:22I said to myself
00:18:24Now
00:18:24There's a young man
00:18:26Who wouldn't mind
00:18:27If a lonely old lady
00:18:28Who is very, very far away from home
00:18:31Bought him a Christmas present
00:18:34A Christmas present
00:18:36A harmonica
00:18:37How would you like an echo harmonica?
00:18:40An echo harmonica?
00:18:42But you don't even know me
00:18:44No fair change in your mind now
00:18:47You just wait here and I'll be right back
00:18:49It can't be
00:18:54I don't believe it
00:18:55Yes young man
00:18:57One golden echo harmonica
00:18:59I must be dreaming again
00:19:02Here you are
00:19:05I wrapped it myself
00:19:07Oh
00:19:16Thank you
00:19:19No thanks
00:19:20Now I won't have it
00:19:21But maybe you'll play something for me
00:19:29Holy infant
00:19:50So tender and mild
00:19:54Sleep in heavenly feet
00:19:58Sleep in heavenly feet
00:20:05Alvin, I owe you an apology
00:20:08That was a wonderful thing you did for Tommy
00:20:11That's okay
00:20:12Where'd she go?
00:20:14Where did who go?
00:20:16I didn't see any
00:20:16That nice lady who gave me the harmonica for Christmas
00:20:20She just disappeared
00:20:22Dave, we better get going
00:20:25We don't want to be late for Carnegie Hall
00:20:27And we have a surprise for you when we get there, Alvin
00:20:31Just hear those sleigh bells jingling
00:20:37Spring ting tingling too

00:21:39Sure do.
00:21:40Well, come on. We've got some celebrating to do.
00:21:45Ladies and gentlemen, I want you to meet a very special friend of mine.
00:21:50He's come a long way to help us celebrate the best Christmas Eve ever.
00:22:01Take the world with smiling faces, la-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la.
00:22:10Bringing joy to sadder places, la-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la.
00:22:18Friends and love is what we need, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la.
00:22:25But don't forget your gift for me, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.
00:22:34We wish you a Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
00:22:49Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry Christmas.
00:23:09Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry Christmas.
00:23:13Well, how did it go, darling?
00:23:16Oh, just fine, sweetheart, just fine.
00:23:19You know, you really ought to get out some Christmas and see how the rest of the world lives.
00:23:25Oh, I don't know. Making children happy is your job.
00:23:31I guess I'm just an old homebody.
00:23:38Shhh.
00:23:42Oh, yes.
00:23:49Oh, yes.
00:24:19Watch out, cause here we come.
00:24:28It's been a while, but we're back in style, so get set to have some fun.
00:24:34We'll bring you action and satisfaction.
00:24:37We're the Chishmunks.
00:24:40E-H-I-D-M-U-N-K.
00:24:43We're the Chishmunks.
00:24:44E-H-I-D-M-U-N-K.
00:24:45We're the Chishmunks.
00:24:45We're the Chishmunks.
00:24:46E-H-I-D-M-U-N-K.
00:24:47We're the Chishmunks.
00:24:48E-H-I-D-M-U-N-K.
00:24:49E-H-I-D-M-U-N-K.
00:24:50E-H-I-D-M-U-N-K.
00:24:51We'll give you our all and if.
00:24:55E-H-I-D-M-U-N-K.
00:24:55Hear like a song, tune in to us and sing right along.
00:25:00We're the Chipmunks, coming on stronger than ever before.
00:25:06We're the Chipmunks, Albert Simon, we adore.
00:25:25See you after Christmas.
00:25:43So long.
00:25:46That was nice of Ms. Brown to give you until Christmas Eve to finish your essay.
00:25:51Nice? She's making me do homework over Christmas vacation.
00:25:55I can't believe it.
00:25:59She gave us the assignment three weeks ago, Alvin.
00:26:03Three weeks isn't enough time to write an entire page.
00:26:07Not when a person's preoccupied about what they want for Christmas.
00:26:11Don't teachers understand about kids and Christmas?
00:26:15What about that oath they take to protect and serve?
00:26:19That's policemen, Alvin, not teachers.
00:26:22I'm going to start my Christmas thinking as soon as we get home.
00:26:33I'm going to start working on Dave's presents.
00:26:36And I'm going to make a list of everything I want for Christmas.
00:26:39Look nice, don't they, Ebenezer?
00:26:52I've been thinking maybe I'd call them Buster and Bob.
00:26:58Huh, you're right, Ebenezer.
00:27:02Giving them names would be mighty silly.
00:27:05Guess I was just trying to make it seem a little less lonely around here.
00:27:12And I have to tell Simon and Theodore what I want for Christmas.
00:27:16And Miss Miller and Brittany and...
00:27:19Hey! Watch where you're going!
00:27:24What a grouch!
00:27:25Doesn't that old guy know anything about Christmas spirit?
00:27:28Speaking of old guys, I'd better send a copy of my Christmas list to Uncle Fred.
00:27:34Uncle Fred?
00:27:35What are you going to get, Dave?
00:27:38The perfect gift.
00:27:40A picture of me.
00:27:43Why am I not surprised?
00:27:45An automatic sox sorter.
00:27:54Dave's going to love it.
00:27:55Simon!
00:27:57Just a minute, Dave!
00:27:59Simon, have you seen Alvin?
00:28:02Nope. Sorry, Dave. Haven't seen him.
00:28:06Simon, what are you doing in there?
00:28:08Nothing!
00:28:15Theodore!
00:28:23You can't! Come in, Dave!
00:28:26Have you seen Alvin?
00:28:28No, Dave. I've been in here all morning.
00:28:32What's your bacon?
00:28:34Nothing!
00:28:35It doesn't smell like nothing.
00:28:38Believe me, it's nothing.
00:28:40Except your Christmas present.
00:28:42And then I want a Mighty Mike race car set.
00:28:48The one on page 12 of the Acme toy catalog.
00:28:52And then I want...
00:28:54Alvin!
00:28:55Whoa!
00:29:00Every year, Christmas gets a little more dangerous around here.
00:29:05And a bunch of new video games and...
00:29:09Alvin, what is this?
00:29:12My Christmas list.
00:29:14And skates and...
00:29:16Alvin, you're late for your paper route.
00:29:19Dave, I can't leave now.
00:29:20I'm only halfway through my list.
00:29:23Alvin!
00:29:24Okay, I'll ask Simon to do it for me.
00:29:28Alvin, it's your paper route.
00:29:30You do it.
00:29:32People are waiting for their papers.
00:29:34But what about me and what I need?
00:29:37Alvin!
00:29:39Okay, okay.
00:29:40But I'll have to hurry.
00:29:41If I don't finish my list and get it in the mail by five,
00:29:45Grandma and Grandpa won't have it in time to go shopping for my present.
00:29:49Come back here!
00:29:51Come back here!
00:30:18Sorry, but I'm in a...
00:30:22Hurry.
00:30:24I want my paper!
00:30:30Oh!
00:30:31There, good as new.
00:30:34Nope.
00:30:35I want a dry one.
00:30:37Come on, be a sport.
00:30:39That's my last one.
00:30:40Have that paper here by sundown.
00:30:44Oh, I'm going straight to your father.
00:30:47Oh, no.
00:30:48Look what time it is.
00:30:52Sold out.
00:30:58There.
00:30:59Got it.
00:31:04Got it.
00:31:19Oh, no.
00:31:20Oh, it's too late to mail my Christmas list to Grandma and Grandpa.
00:31:26Grandpa and Grandma Saville.
00:31:29Two of my major suppliers.
00:31:32Suppliers?
00:31:34Of Christmas presents.
00:31:35Now I'm going to miss out on some really great gifts.
00:31:39And it's all Mr. Carol's fault.
00:31:42Alvin, there's more to Christmas than just getting presents.
00:31:45The holidays are a time of sharing.
00:31:48Of giving to others.
00:31:50A time for sharing good food.
00:31:52And good company.
00:31:53Right.
00:31:54Maybe singing some Christmas carols would cheer you up, Alvin.
00:31:58Thanks anyway, Theodore.
00:32:00I think I'll just go upstairs and lie in the dark.
00:32:07Maybe I could call Grandma and Grandpa and give them my list over the phone.
00:32:12Tomorrow's Christmas Eve.
00:32:13They still have time to...
00:32:15Christmas Eve.
00:32:17My essay on the true meaning of Christmas is due tomorrow.
00:32:24The true meaning of Christmas is...
00:32:32Is...
00:32:33My mind's a blank.
00:32:46Maybe I'll write about what the true meaning of Christmas isn't.
00:32:50My neighbor, Mr. Carol...
00:32:53Doesn't have a clue...
00:32:56About the true meaning of Christmas.
00:33:08Hey, what's going on?
00:33:13I'm the spirit of Christmas past.
00:33:17Dave?
00:33:18And I thought I was having a rough night.
00:33:21I've come to show you Christmas as it should be.
00:33:26I knew it wasn't for a fashion show.
00:33:28Alvin!
00:33:30You got the wrong guy.
00:33:32Mr. Carol's the one who doesn't know what Christmas is about.
00:33:35It's time for us to begin our journey.
00:33:40Look, I'm busy right now.
00:33:42Okay?
00:33:43Alvin!
00:33:44Alvin!
00:33:45Look down there.
00:33:57Do you recognize that house?
00:33:59Of course I do.
00:34:02This is the house we lived in when we were little.
00:34:04I remember that Christmas.
00:34:09We were so poor, we couldn't afford to get you really great presents.
00:34:15Alvin, that's not true.
00:34:18They were wonderful presents.
00:34:20Look.
00:34:21An eraser, and a pencil, and a piece of paper.
00:34:28These are great.
00:34:31Thanks, fellas.
00:34:32We wanted them to be nicer, Dave.
00:34:35But they're all we could afford.
00:34:38I hope you can use them for, um, well, something.
00:34:42I'm going to use them right now.
00:34:55No.
00:34:57No.
00:35:03There!
00:35:05That's it!
00:35:05Christmas, Christmas time is near
00:35:16Time for joy and time for cheer
00:35:21We've been good, but we can't last
00:35:26Hurry, Christmas, hurry fast
00:35:31Want a plane that loops the loop
00:35:35Me, I want a hula hoop
00:35:40We can hardly stand the way
00:35:45Please, Christmas, don't be late
00:35:49Once a plane that loops the loop
00:36:14Me, I want a hula hoop
00:36:19We can hardly stand the way
00:36:23Please, Christmas, don't be late
00:36:28That was a great Christmas!
00:36:31That was the night I wrote
00:36:33The Christmas Song
00:36:35It was inspired by the gifts you boys gave me
00:36:39But they weren't expensive or fancy
00:36:43No, but they came right from your hearts
00:36:47Well, our time here is up
00:36:51But I don't want to go
00:36:53They're having so much fun
00:36:55It's time for the spirit of Christmas present
00:36:58To pay you a visit
00:37:00Christmas present?
00:37:03As in gift?
00:37:04No, Christmas present
00:37:07As in the here and now
00:37:10Oh, big deal
00:37:13Hey, what the?
00:37:28Ho, ho, ho!
00:37:30You brought my Christmas presents?
00:37:32Hmm!
00:37:34Let me see!
00:37:35Let me see!
00:37:35No!
00:37:41I'm the spirit of Christmas present
00:37:44I don't deliver Christmas presents
00:37:47Then what's in the fact?
00:37:50A vision of Christmas
00:37:51As it is today
00:37:53Take a peek
00:37:54Merry Christmas, boys
00:37:58Christmas!
00:38:01Yahoo!
00:38:02Alvin, have you delivered your papers yet?
00:38:05In a minute, Dave
00:38:06I just want to see
00:38:07How many of these are for me
00:38:09This one
00:38:10And this one
00:38:12And here's another one
00:38:13And here's one
00:38:15And this one
00:38:16Take the halls with balls of holly
00:38:19Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
00:38:21And another one
00:38:23And another one
00:38:24All for me, me, me
00:38:26Me, me, me, me
00:38:29Wow, look at all those presents
00:38:33I'm gonna go help me open them
00:38:36No, no, no
00:38:38That's against the rules
00:38:39You can't do that
00:38:41Hey, what's this?
00:38:45It's that old grouch
00:38:46Mr. Carol
00:38:47There you go, Ebeneezer
00:38:49You're right in the spirit of things
00:38:52Now, close your eyes
00:38:56I've got a surprise for you
00:38:58It's time for you to open your present
00:39:02I'm glad you like it
00:39:09Oh, don't worry about me, Ebeneezer
00:39:15My present should be waiting for me
00:39:18On the front porch by now
00:39:20I don't know what I'd do without that newspaper
00:39:24It's like having a whole bunch of visitors
00:39:27Every single day
00:39:29Telling me all about their troubles
00:39:32And their joys
00:39:33The games they've won
00:39:35And the fights they've lost
00:39:37Yes, sir
00:39:39That old paper's come to mean the world to me
00:39:42Oh
00:39:44Well, I guess it only stands to reason
00:39:49It's Christmas
00:39:50I expect Alvin's busy with more important things
00:39:55So that's why Mr. Carol's so fussy about getting his paper
00:40:01I never thought about a newspaper being somebody's whole world
00:40:05You and the paper are about the only visitors he ever gets
00:40:09Gee, I'm starting to see what Dave meant about the importance of giving
00:40:15Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me
00:40:17Here, I don't want to talk about Christmas anymore
00:40:22Sorry
00:40:23But you must still be visited by one more spirit
00:40:27Ta-da
00:40:37I am the spirit of Christmas yet to come
00:40:41I'm here to show you visions of your future
00:40:44Thanks anyway
00:40:46But I'm busy
00:40:47I have an essay to write
00:40:49And if I don't get it finished
00:40:51I'm going to flunk English
00:40:53You've been talking about yourself for hours
00:40:56You must be exhausted
00:40:58Allow me to talk about you for a while
00:41:02To show you the you you may soon become
00:41:07Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
00:41:10I did it
00:41:12I got all my Christmas shopping done
00:41:15Alvin, are you alright?
00:41:19I'm exhausted
00:41:20It's a jungle out there
00:41:22Here, have some eggnog, Alvin
00:41:24I made it just for you
00:41:26As a Christmas present
00:41:28Gee, thanks
00:41:30Hope you don't mind that I didn't get you a present
00:41:33But everything I saw
00:41:36But everything I saw was something I wanted
00:41:37Oh, that's okay, Alvin
00:41:39The thing I'm looking forward to most
00:41:41Is having Christmas dinner with the family
00:41:44Christmas dinner?
00:41:45How's that coming along?
00:41:47It's all done
00:41:48We'll eat as soon as Dave and Simon
00:41:53Get back from the airport
00:41:54With Grandma and Grandpa Seville
00:41:56You did a great job, Theodore
00:41:59You made all my favorites
00:42:01Not a pretty picture, is it?
00:42:17Well, it's not like I ate everything
00:42:20I left a whole bowl of Brussels sprouts
00:42:23Big deal, Alvin
00:42:25You hate Brussels sprouts
00:42:27Okay, okay
00:42:28So what?
00:42:31This is so what?
00:42:38Theodore!
00:42:39Alvin!
00:42:40Grandma and Grandpa are here
00:42:42Yee-haw!
00:42:44Grandma!
00:42:45Grandpa!
00:42:48What did you get me?
00:42:50Whoa!
00:42:52Whoa!
00:42:55Anyone care for crackers and water?
00:42:59It's all we had left
00:43:00After Alvin finished eating
00:43:02Every dip under the tree is for me
00:43:06Yes, Alvin
00:43:08We knew you'd want it that way
00:43:10Merry Christmas, Alvin
00:43:13Yeah, right, Grandma
00:43:15Wait a minute
00:43:16When did the doctor say you and Grandpa would be okay?
00:43:22In about three or four months, I think
00:43:25Doc said we should be good as new by the end of April
00:43:29Excellent!
00:43:30Expect my list for next Christmas, May 1st
00:43:34That way, the minute you're well, you can start shopping for me!
00:43:39Whoa!
00:43:40Me!
00:43:41Me!
00:43:43Me!
00:43:44Me!
00:43:45Me!
00:43:46Me!
00:43:47Me!
00:43:50Is that true?
00:43:52Is that how I'm really going to end up?
00:43:55You got it
00:43:56I'm doomed!
00:43:58As long as you only think of Christmas as a time to get
00:44:03I'll change, I promise!
00:44:06From now on, I'll think of Christmas as a time to give
00:44:10I'll change, I'll change!
00:44:12I promise, I'll change!
00:44:14It's morning already
00:44:19That means it's Christmas Eve
00:44:22I've got to finish my essay
00:44:24The True Meaning of Christmas
00:44:28By Alvin Seville
00:44:30Last night, I discovered the truth about Christmas
00:44:34I verified it with a weather service
00:44:45It's never snowed here before
00:44:47It's a Christmas miracle!
00:44:49Well, in case you get hungry later
00:44:52You know, fellas
00:44:53I've got a feeling this is going to be a very special Christmas
00:44:57Dave, Simon, Theodore!
00:45:00Merry Christmas!
00:45:01Merry Christmas!
00:45:03What are you doing, Alvin?
00:45:04I have to turn in my essay
00:45:07Do some Christmas shopping
00:45:09And spread joy and happiness to others
00:45:12Alvin's going to spread joy?
00:45:16And happiness?
00:45:16Presents and sweets, decorations and treats
00:45:35And a star on top of a tree
00:45:37Christmas bells ringing
00:45:39And carolers singing
00:45:41And smiles on the faces we see
00:45:43Here comes Christmas
00:45:46Happiest time of the year
00:45:49Merry Christmas!
00:45:52Sing and rejoice for Christmas is here
00:45:56Fireplace blowing and frosty
00:46:03When blowing a winter chill in the air
00:46:06Family near you
00:46:08And friendship to cheer you
00:46:09And goodwill to men everywhere
00:46:11Here comes Christmas
00:46:14Here comes Christmas

00:46:34SING AND REJOICE FOR CHRISTMAS IS HERE

00:46:44Merry Christmas, everybody.
00:47:14Merry Christmas, everybody.
00:47:44Merry Christmas, everybody.
00:48:14Merry Christmas, everybody.
00:48:44Come on, guys. Let's go.
00:48:46How's the song, Dave?
00:48:47Well, it's finally finished, and I've sent everything over to Cy.
00:48:50Now, let's hurry up. We'll be late for school.
00:48:52I'll get the car.
00:48:53Oh!
00:48:55Oh, I'm too sick for school, Dave.
00:49:00Oh!
00:49:02Oh!
00:49:02Why, I'm burning up with fever.
00:49:05Darn.
00:49:06I guess I won't be able to go to school today.
00:49:09Yeah.
00:49:09I don't want to go in Dave's car either.
00:49:12Hmm.
00:49:20Dave, we'll just take our bikes.
00:49:22It's too late, Alvin.
00:49:24You wouldn't get there on time.
00:49:26Oh.
00:49:30Come on, fellas.
00:49:31Help me push.
00:49:32Oh.
00:49:33Merrily.
00:49:40She'll see me.
00:49:42Hi, Theodore.
00:49:43Have you seen Al...
00:49:44Alvin!
00:49:46Oh, hi, Merrily.
00:49:49I can't talk now.
00:49:50I'm just having my morning workout.
00:49:53Pushing cars is the latest craze.
00:49:58Really pumps up the old muscles.
00:50:00Got the big soccer game tomorrow, you know.
00:50:03Everybody in!
00:50:10See you later.
00:50:12Bye.
00:50:12Bye.
00:50:16I can't wait for the big game.
00:50:20Even though we have to drive in Dave's car.
00:50:23Come on, you guys.
00:50:24What are we going to do?
00:50:26Feed him!
00:50:27Feed him!
00:50:28Feed him!
00:50:30Where's our secret weapon?
00:50:32Dave!
00:50:34Really?
00:50:35They didn't like any of my songs?
00:50:37Well, I'm just going through a little dry spell.
00:50:41Uh, yeah.
00:50:43Okay.
00:50:44What's our mission, Dave?
00:50:46Dave?
00:50:48Huh?
00:50:49Oh, yeah.
00:50:50Beat him.
00:50:51Beat him.
00:50:52You don't sound too sure about that, Dave.
00:50:55Have you seen my soccer shoes?
00:50:57You're wearing them.
00:50:58Ouch!
00:51:00I guess I'm a little nervous.
00:51:02I've never played soccer before.
00:51:04Nothing to it, Dave.
00:51:06Just use your head.
00:51:07And your feet.
00:51:12We'd better get going.
00:51:13We don't want to be late for our victory.
00:51:15Yeah!
00:51:16We're going to beat him!
00:51:17Beat him!
00:51:18Beat him!
00:51:20Go and load the car up, fellas.
00:51:21I'll be right there.
00:51:24Oh, hi, Ralphie.
00:51:25How much?
00:51:27But the whole car isn't even worth that.
00:51:30I just can't afford to bring it in right now.
00:51:33Maybe next month.
00:51:34Thanks, anyway, Ralphie.
00:51:36Dave!
00:51:38Coming!
00:51:39Beat him!
00:51:41Beat him!
00:51:43The score is tied 2-2 with 30 seconds left to play.
00:51:47What a cliffhanger!
00:51:51Speedy Saville steals it!
00:51:52He passes it to...
00:51:54Chubby Saville, who bounces it to Brainy Saville.
00:51:57Over to Big Saville!
00:52:00Go, Dave!
00:52:01You got it!
00:52:02He's heading for the goal!
00:52:05He may score!
00:52:07Go, Dave!
00:52:08Go!
00:52:11Whoa!
00:52:13Oh, my!
00:52:15Armstrong steals the ball!
00:52:18And scores the winning goal!
00:52:21Ha, ha, ha, ha!
00:52:23We won, Dad!
00:52:24We won!
00:52:25Great play!
00:52:27Thanks, son!
00:52:28Are you okay, Dave?
00:52:31Yeah, sure.
00:52:32Just a little embarrassed.
00:52:35A little embarrassed?
00:52:36I'm humiliated!
00:52:38Uh, I didn't even see what happened.
00:52:41Count your blessings, Dave.
00:52:43Kimmy's dad scored the winning goal.
00:52:45Oh, I guess I kind of blew it, huh?
00:52:48Don't worry about it, Dave.
00:52:50It's only a game.
00:52:52Yeah, Kimmy will only be bragging about how his dad won the game for the next 50 years.
00:52:57But we'll get over it.
00:52:59Someday.
00:53:00Hey, come on.
00:53:01I'll treat you all to a fruit smoothie.
00:53:03Good game, Dave.
00:53:05You almost had us there.
00:53:07Yeah, almost.
00:53:08Well, hopefully your business is going better than your soccer game.
00:53:13Well, actually...
00:53:15Yeah, we're in a real boom right now ourselves, Dave.
00:53:18I'm making more money than I can spend.
00:53:21Well, uh...
00:53:22You too, huh?
00:53:24Hey, glad to hear it.
00:53:26Wow!
00:53:27Look at that car!
00:53:29It's a Lamberari X-12.
00:53:32The finest roadster ever built.
00:53:35Yeah, and it's all ours.
00:53:37Isn't it great, Dave?
00:53:39Yeah, it's beautiful.
00:53:43Well, we better get going, fellas.
00:53:45We don't want to keep those fruit smoothies waiting.
00:53:48Oh.
00:53:51So long!
00:53:53What a beautiful car.
00:53:57Oh.
00:53:59I hope no one sees us.
00:54:01This is incredibly embarrassing.
00:54:04Hey, Seville, you need some help?
00:54:06No, no.
00:54:07It's probably just upset because it didn't get to play in the game.
00:54:11It doesn't know how lucky it was.
00:54:14I'll be happy to take the boys home for you, Dave.
00:54:17Hooray!
00:54:17Uh, but fellas, what about our fruit smoothies?
00:54:22That's okay, Dave.
00:54:29Oh, brother.
00:54:34What a great day.
00:54:38Dave!
00:54:39You're back!
00:54:40Timmy's car is like driving on air.
00:54:43And guess what?
00:54:44Mr. Armstrong said he could drive us to Camp Happy Trails.
00:54:49Oh, well, that's nice, but...
00:54:51It's okay, Dave.
00:54:53You can drive us if you want.
00:54:54We don't mind.
00:54:55It's not that, Simon.
00:54:57It's...
00:54:57Which reminds me, Dave.
00:54:59Did you send in the papers?
00:55:00We want to make sure Camp Happy Trails knows we're coming.
00:55:03Well, I...
00:55:04I can't wait to go!
00:55:07The Happy Trails truck wagon is practically world famous!
00:55:12Wait a minute, fellas.
00:55:13I don't know how to say this, but...
00:55:16I'm afraid I can't afford to send you this year.
00:55:19Are you kidding?
00:55:21But, Dave, we've been waiting for Camp Happy Trails all year.
00:55:25And we did all those extra chores.
00:55:28I know, but I expected at least one of my songs to be accepted.
00:55:33This isn't happening to me.
00:55:35I'm really sorry, fellas.
00:55:37I don't believe it.
00:55:39It's okay, Dave.
00:55:40We understand.
00:55:42There's always next year.
00:55:44Right, Alvin?
00:55:45But you promised!
00:55:46Alvin!
00:55:48What?
00:55:48My whole summer is ruined!
00:55:49Probably my whole life!
00:55:55The truck wagon isn't that great!
00:55:59We understand, Dave.
00:56:01Really, we do.
00:56:07No Camp Happy Trails this year.
00:56:10I still can't believe it.
00:56:12Alvin, no one feels worse about this than Dave.
00:56:15Wanna bet?
00:56:16He didn't know that those songs wouldn't sell.
00:56:18He's just in a slump.
00:56:20What if he doesn't come out of it?
00:56:21We'll have to sell the house!
00:56:23Maybe we could live at Timmy's.
00:56:26He's got lots of room.
00:56:28Dave's too proud for that.
00:56:29He wasn't too proud at the soccer game.
00:56:31Alvin, come on.
00:56:33This is the worst day of my life.
00:56:35I embarrass them.
00:56:40I ruin their summer.
00:56:41I can't write a hit song.
00:56:43I can't even afford to get my car fixed.
00:56:46Maybe they'd be better off without me.
00:56:48You're entering another dimension.
00:56:57Huh?
00:56:57One of sight, sound, and of mind.
00:57:00So, you think we'd be better off if you never existed?
00:57:04Simon?
00:57:05Sort of.
00:57:07Dave, this is making me dizzy.
00:57:09Dave, can you adjust this thing?
00:57:12Hey, that tickles!
00:57:18Seriously, Dave, we need to talk about you never existing.
00:57:22Let's see if I would have been better off without you.
00:57:25Submitted for your approval.
00:57:28The No Dave Zone.
00:57:29Let's travel back in time to an important moment in my formative youth.
00:57:44Remember the big school spelling bee a few years ago?
00:57:47Sure.
00:57:49And I was so nervous I couldn't spell anything right?
00:57:52Spell principal as in the head of a school.
00:57:56Principal.
00:57:57P-R-I-N-C-I-P-L-E.
00:58:04No, that's the other type of principal.
00:58:07Just remember this little trick.
00:58:09The principal at school is your pal.
00:58:12P-R-I-N-C-I-P-A-L.
00:58:16Great!
00:58:17Principal.
00:58:18P-R-I-N-C-I-P-A-L.
00:58:23You look awfully tired, Simon.
00:58:25Are you sure you want to keep going?
00:58:27Absolutely.
00:58:28The spelling bee's tomorrow.
00:58:30Give me another one.
00:58:32All right.
00:58:32Spell Mississippi.
00:58:34Mississippi.
00:58:36M-I-S-I-P...
00:58:40I never get that one right.
00:58:43Here's a little rhyme that used to help me out.
00:58:45M-I-S-S-I-S-I-S-I-P-P-I.
00:58:50M-I-S-S-I-S-I-P-P-I.
00:58:58You've got it!
00:59:00M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I.
00:59:03M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-S-I-P-P-I.
00:59:07After your help, Dave, I felt ready for that spelling bee.
00:59:11All right.
00:59:12Number nine.
00:59:15For your last word, please spell the word guide.
00:59:18Uh, guide.
00:59:22Uh, G-I-D-E.
00:59:26Guide.
00:59:27I'm sorry.
00:59:28That's incorrect.
00:59:31Number ten.
00:59:32For your last word, please spell the word Mississippi.
00:59:42Mississippi.
00:59:43M-I-S-S-I-S-I-S-I-P-I.
00:59:48Mississippi.
00:59:49Correct.
00:59:50Yay!
00:59:51Number ten.
00:59:52Simon Seville.
00:59:53Yay, Simon!
00:59:57You see, everyone treated me like I was smart, so I believed I was smart.
01:00:02Uh, but you were.
01:00:03Uh, are.
01:00:04Well, it never happened that way.
01:00:07Uh, what do you mean?
01:00:08You weren't there to help me learn, to give me confidence.
01:00:12I was on my own.
01:00:14And not doing well.
01:00:16Mississippi.
01:00:18M-I-S-A-S-I-P-I.
01:00:26Wrong.
01:00:27I haven't gotten one word all night.
01:00:29I'm just not smart enough.
01:00:33When the spelling bee came around, I was a nervous wreck.
01:00:38All right.
01:00:39Number nine.
01:00:40For your last word, please spell the word guide.
01:00:47G-I-D-E.
01:00:51Guide.
01:00:52I'm sorry.
01:00:53That's incorrect.
01:00:55Number ten.
01:00:56For your last word, please spell the word Mississippi.
01:01:01Oh.
01:01:04Mississippi.
01:01:06M-I-S-A-S-I-P-I.
01:01:11Mississippi.
01:01:13I'm sorry.
01:01:14That's incorrect.
01:01:15I was humiliated.
01:01:17I lost all self-confidence that day.
01:01:19Boy, is he dumb.
01:01:26By the age of 40, I was still in kindergarten.
01:01:30But I don't get it.
01:01:32You were always so smart.
01:01:33Not without your help.
01:01:36Hey.
01:01:36Where are you going?
01:01:38Back to school.
01:01:39I never did learn how to spell Mississippi.
01:01:42Hey, Dave.
01:01:45Theodore?
01:01:47Uh, sort of.
01:01:48So, you think I'd be better off if you never existed, huh?
01:01:53Well, I...
01:01:54Come on.
01:01:55Did you say that or didn't you?
01:01:58Yeah, I guess I did, but...
01:02:00Well, let's take a peek.
01:02:03Hey, I'm floating.
01:02:06Remember the time I ran for kindergarten president and nobody voted for me?
01:02:11Sure I do.
01:02:13I felt so alone.
01:02:14I didn't know what to do.
01:02:18Oh.
01:02:22Theodore, what's wrong?
01:02:24Nothing.
01:02:26I know something's wrong, Theodore.
01:02:27You didn't eat your dinner.
01:02:29They don't want me to be kindergarten class president.
01:02:33I didn't even get nominated.
01:02:36Nobody likes me.
01:02:38Well, that doesn't mean nobody likes you.
01:02:41What did you do to get the nomination?
01:02:45Nothing.
01:02:46Did you talk to anyone?
01:02:48No.
01:02:50Why not?
01:02:52I'm too shy.
01:02:53What if they don't like me?
01:02:56You're a very likable person, Theodore.
01:02:59But if you don't introduce yourself, people won't know just how nice you are.
01:03:03You think so?
01:03:05Absolutely.
01:03:06But remember, you have to go out and meet people and talk to them.
01:03:10Give them a chance to get to know you.
01:03:12I'll do it.
01:03:13I'll go right out and meet and talk to a bunch of people and make friends.
01:03:19That's the spirit.
01:03:20But first, I think I'll eat dinner.
01:03:24Because of you, Dave, I learned I had to earn friendships.
01:03:28And with you believing in me, I believed in me too.
01:03:31Pretty soon, I had friends all around the world.
01:03:35I'd like to introduce the person voted most popular, Theodore Saville.
01:03:42Too bad it never happened that way, Dave.
01:03:46What do you mean?
01:03:48Did you forget already?
01:03:50You thought we'd be better off if you never existed.
01:03:53Without you to give me such great advice and encouragement,
01:03:57I moved to a desert island and became a hermit.
01:04:01You what?
01:04:06I never learned how to get along with people.
01:04:09They didn't like me, and I didn't like them.
01:04:12No, it can't be.
01:04:14I'm afraid it is, Dave.
01:04:22Theodore, Simon, what's happening?
01:04:24What a nightmare.
01:04:28You're not dreaming, Dave.
01:04:30Alvin?
01:04:31So, you think we'd have been better off if you never existed.
01:04:35Well, I...
01:04:36Come with me.
01:04:42Dave, how can I show you the effects of your wish if you won't cooperate?
01:04:52Hey!
01:04:53All right, Dave.
01:04:54Have it your way.
01:04:57Alvin!
01:05:00Now then, remember that lemonade stand I had when I was a kid?
01:05:03Alvin, this is not funny.
01:05:06That was a big turning point in my life, Dave.
01:05:09Remember what happened?
01:05:15Hey, how's business, Alvin?
01:05:17Not very good, Dave.
01:05:19Nobody wants to buy my lemonade.
01:05:21But you've only got one glass left.
01:05:23I only made one glass.
01:05:25If I made ten glasses and nobody bought them, I'd have to drink them all myself.
01:05:30You need a positive attitude to succeed, Alvin.
01:05:33But nobody even bought this glass.
01:05:34But nobody even bought this glass.
01:05:35Come over here.
01:05:38Tell me what you see.
01:05:39A lemonade stand.
01:05:40How do you know it's a lemonade stand?
01:05:41How do you know it's a lemonade stand?
01:05:43There's no sign.
01:05:44If you want to sell lots of lemonade, you have to advertise.
01:05:48Right.
01:05:49I'll call it the lemonade stand of the stars.
01:05:52Hey, that's pretty catchy.
01:05:54Come on, I'll help you make the sign.
01:05:56And I'll make some more lemonade.
01:05:59Get your ice-cold lemonade at the lemonade stand of the stars.
01:06:04Here you go.
01:06:05Take a number.
01:06:06No need to push.
01:06:07Lenty for everyone.
01:06:08The lemonade stand of the stars.
01:06:10Everybody loved it.
01:06:12But that's not the way it happened, Dave.
01:06:14Without you there to help me, my lemonade stand was a failure.
01:06:17And without that first success, I thought I was a failure.
01:06:21And that's exactly what I became.
01:06:26Seville!
01:06:27Did you finish that filing I gave you?
01:06:30Yes, sir.
01:06:31I did.
01:06:32Then how come I couldn't find my sales report?
01:06:36Well, I...
01:06:37You filed it wrong.
01:06:40Here!
01:06:40Yes, I must have filed them wrong.
01:06:43I'm just no good, sir.
01:06:45Get with it, Seville.
01:06:46Or find yourself another job.
01:06:49Yes, sir.
01:06:50Whatever you say, sir.
01:06:52Alvin, that's not like you.
01:06:54Without your help, Dave, I never learned that I could be a success.
01:06:58So there I am.
01:06:59No confidence.
01:07:00No opinion.
01:07:02No future.
01:07:03Just because I wasn't there?
01:07:05I was at the crossroads of life, Dave.
01:07:07And without you, I took a wrong turn.
01:07:10And you thought the chipmunks would be better off if you never existed.
01:07:14Never existed.
01:07:16Never existed.
01:07:19Never existed.
01:07:21Never existed.
01:07:23Am I...
01:07:24I do exist.
01:07:25I do exist.
01:07:27The boys.
01:07:33Simon, Theodore, Alvin, you're all right.
01:07:36Uh-huh.
01:07:38What's going on, Dave?
01:07:40I just wanted to see if you guys were okay.
01:07:42Yeah, Dave.
01:07:43We're fine.
01:07:45Fellas, I'm sorry for losing the soccer game and embarrassing you and wrecking your summer.
01:07:50We don't care about those things, Dave.
01:07:52Not more than we care about you.
01:07:55Yeah, you're the best dad in the whole world.
01:07:58I'm the richest man in the world.
01:08:00Hey, that gives me an idea for a new song.
01:08:04A really great new song.
01:08:06A really great new song?
01:08:08I haven't seen Dave this excited about a new song in a long time.
01:08:12Camp Happy Trails, here we come.
01:08:15Come on.
01:08:16Sometimes we'll go and get rough
01:08:28And it seems that dreams aren't enough
01:08:33But there's somebody there to see us who
01:08:39And we're so glad it's you
01:08:42Without you
01:09:05We never have died
01:09:08Reaching farther than we could see
01:09:12And you taught us how to do our best
01:09:17And be all we could be
01:09:23Don't always show that we care
01:09:28But you know we'll always be there
01:09:33And for who we love best
01:09:36We'll tell you true
01:09:38We're so glad
01:09:42We're so glad it's you
01:09:47You're the greatest, Dave
01:09:50I love you boys too
01:09:53Oh my God
01:09:57You're the greatest, Dave
01:10:14You're the greatest
