## Transcript

Barney is a dinosaur

From our imagination,

And when he's tall, he's what we call

A dinosaur sensation!

Barney lives with Michael and

With Amy, then you'll soon see

Little Tina tags along

With her big sister Luci

Derek is in Barney's club

And Adam has a ticket

But Mom has never seen him,

'Cause she doesn't know our secret

Barney comes to play with us

Whenever we may need him.

Barney can be your friend too,

If you just make-believe him!

**Michael:** I don't think so. Come on. Let's go see.

When Santa comes to our house

I'd like to take a peek

But I know he'll never come

Until I'm fast asleep.

**Amy:** Let me try it.

When Santa comes to our house

I'd like to take a peek

But I know he'll never come

Until I'm fast asleep.

Waiting and watching

For Santa to appear.

Hoping and wishing

That he is getting near.

Our mom and daddy told us

To be so good all year.

And now it's almost Christmas,

We can feel that Santa's near.

So we are...

Waiting and hoping

That he is on his way.

Santa and reindeer

Are coming with his sleigh.

Our mom and daddy told us

To be so good all year.

And now it's almost Christmas,

We can feel that Santa's near.

So we are...

Sleepy, so sleepy

But want to stay up too.

If we sleep dear Santa,

Please remember we love you.

I love you, you love me.

We're as happy as can be.

Here's a great big kiss

And a hug from me to you,

Won't you say you love me, too?

**Adam:** Why have you called us here and on Christmas Eve?

Who is the man in the big red suit?

Could Santa be his name-o?

S-A-N-T-A

**Barney:** Okay. Everybody, make a big circle. Now, close your eyes and say the magic words.

**All:**

Star light, star bright,

First star I see tonight;

I wish I may, I wish I might

Have the wish I wish tonight.

**Tina:** But, Barney. We're not dressed for the North Pole.

**Amy:** Barney, how are we going to get to the North Pole?

Up on the housetop, reindeer pause,

Out jumps good old Santa Claus.

Down through the chimney, with lots of toys,

All for the little one's Christmas joys.

Ho-ho-ho, who wouldn't go?

Ho-ho-ho, who wouldn't go,

Up on the housetop, click, click, click;

Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick.

Dashing through the snow in a one horse open sleigh.

O'er the fields we go laughing all the way.

Bells on bobtail ring making spirits bright.

What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight.

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way.

Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh.

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way.

Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh.

Winter's wonderful; it's so beautiful.

Christmas time is here.

The snow is sparkling,

The trees are glistening,

It's that time of year.

We love to see the Christmas lights,

The decorations, too.

'Cause it's the wonderful season

Full of special things to do.

Wearing hats and coats and scarves,

Each hand has got a glove.

All our friends and family too,

Are filled with extra love.

We love to see the Christmas lights,

The decorations, too.

'Cause it's the wonderful season

Full of special things to do.

'Cause it's the wonderful season

Full of special things to do.

**Derek:** I wish we had our ice skates with us.

**Barney:**

**Derek:** Pretend?

**Michael:** Sure! Watch me!

Skating, skating,

Over the frosty ice.

We're slipping around and having fun,

It makes us feel so nice.

Barney, Barney,

Be careful you do not fall.

Your legs are so short, your tail's so long.

Oh, now we've seen it all.

Gliding, gliding,

Cruising right along.

It's fun to skate and have such fun

And even sing a song.

Barney, Barney,

Now we've seen it all.

Your legs are so short, your tail's so long.

We've really had a ball.

**Mrs. Claus:** It's so nice to meet you all.

**Barney:**

**Mrs. Claus:** 123 Hickory Street.

My name's Michael and I'm looking like an elf.

Only problem is I'm all by myself.

Hi! I'm Amy, and I'm an elf too.

I'd better work real fast 'cause there's so much to do.

Here comes Adam looking oh so fine.

Now it's feeling more like Christmas time!

Look! There's Derek. He's our brand-new friend.

The gang's been teaching me how to play pretend.

My name's Luci and I'm glad we're here.

We're doing what the elves do all through the year.

Last comes Tina and our gang's complete.

I feel just like an elf from my head to my feet.

**Mrs. Claus:**

Let's all do a little tapping.

Let's all do a little tapping.

Let's all do a little tapping

And spread Christmas cheer.

Let's all do a little painting.

Let's all do a little painting.

Let's all do a little painting

And spread Christmas cheer.

Let's all do a little wrapping.

Let's all do a little wrapping.

Let's all do a little wrapping

And spread Christmas cheer.

**Mrs. Claus:**

Jolly Old Saint Nicholas, lean your ear this way. Don't you tell a single soul what I'm going to say.

Christmas Eve is coming soon. Now you dear old man, whisper what you'll bring to be, tell me if you can.

Amy wants a brand new dress, Tina just wants toys. Adam wants a game to play with other girls and boys.

Luci wants a new baton, Derek wants a bike. Michael told us Santa knows just what he would like.

Lots of special wishes are being made right now, and we know he hears them all, though we don't know how.

Everything he brings us will be so very right, as he travels 'round the world on this special night.

We wish you a Merry Christmas

We wish you a Merry Christmas

We wish you a Merry Christmas

And a Happy New Year

Glad tidings we bring

To you and your kin

We wish you a Merry Christmas

And a Happy New Year.

With great Christmas cheer

May the weather be clear

And new friends always near.

Now let's be on our way

As we fly in the sleigh

Is that Santa I hear?

This is too long, I fear.

We wish you a Merry Christmas

And a Happy New Year

**All:** Bye!

**Barney:**

Deck the halls with boughs of holly,

Fa la la la la, la la la la.

'Tis the season to be jolly,

Fa la la la la, la la la la.

Don we now our gay apparel,

Fa la la, la la la, la la la.

Troll the ancient Yuletide carol,

Fa la la la la, la la la la.

**Barney:** Well, I forget my spectacles. Oh, this is special story all about Santa Claus. Ready?

**Santa Claus:** Shh. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night. Merry Christmas!
