The Song: I Want a Hippopotamus For Christmas
Day 4
“Hi ho, Kermit theee Frog here… We’re behind the scenes of the 2014 Muppet’s Christmas Charity concert. Let’s take a peek at the preparations for tonight’s concert!” Kermit turns around and starts walking down the aisle of seats, with the camera following closely behind. Kermit turns around and points off to the side. “Everyone is working so hard to get the concert ready!”
The camera follows Kermit’s hand off to the right to a group
of chickens. The chickens hop around with various decorations in their mouth
and hang them along the walls. Some get loaded into sling shots and fired high
in the air. One comes crashing down next to Kermit.
Kermit cringes and looks down at the chicken. “Careful
ladies… I bet they wish they could fly now…” A feathered hand comes from the
ground and gives a thumbs up before flopping back down. Kermit continues the
tour up front where an older man in a conductor’s uniform stands in front of a
set of three vegetable stalls. He taps his wand and the vegetables all turn to
face him.
Kermit hops excitedly. “Oh! We’re just in time for a dress rehearsal!
Let’s watch!”
The man waves the wand around, and the music strikes up, and
when he makes a decided flick towards them the Vegetables start singing, “I
want a Hippopotamus for Christmaaaas …”
Kermit shifts around and slowly turns towards the camera. “Well…
it’s not exactly an orthodox Christmas song… but I guess it has its merits…”
One of the boxes near the vegetables stands flops open and reveals
Animal playing drums.
Kermit comments, “They still have a bit to go with the
scenery. I hope it doesn’t flop down like that during the show or it might be embarrassing…
wait… Isn’t the tempo getting a little fast?” He lowers his microphone then
shakes his head violently and runs up near the stage. “Animal! Stoop! You’re
playing the wrong song! That’s Moby Dick!” There’s no sign of stopping and
instead Animal picks up to a blistering pace. Kermit screams. “This isn’t a Led
Zeppelin tribute!”
The drums go faster and faster until everyone stops and
watches as Animal plays and screams “Animal! AAANIMAL! ANIMAAALLLLLL!”
The conductor throws his stick down on the ground, then his
hands up in the air in exasperation as the entire number falls apart.
Kermit turns to the camera and frowns. “I feel bad for Sir Michael
Caine. He’s worked so hard to get this production going, I can only imagine his
frustrations at these last minute set backs.
Miss Piggy walks out from the side and stands next to
Kermit. “Kermiii!”
Kermit turns and asks, “Oh, hi Ms. Piggy. I figured you’d be
in this number.”
“WHAT?! WHY?! Because I’m FAT?! Is that what you’re trying to
say?!”
“N-no I didn’t mean anything like tha-“
“HiiiYYAAA!!!” Piggy karate kicks Kermit into the far side
wall.
Kermit says with a grumble, “Kermit the Frog here… signing
off,” before falling to the ground.
