Frosty The Snowman
Cast - Phineas and Ferb Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is a lovely shade of teal
From his duck-billed nose to his web-bed toes
And his nerves were made of steel
What does this have to do with Christmas?
Well, I'm, I'm just describing him
So that people have a mental picture
The night before Christmas
'Twas a crisis at the Pole
'Cause old Doofenshmirtz, he had done his worst
And a sleigh that day he stole
Doof took it on a joyride
Just as far as he was able
But Doof, that goof, he lost control
Ran into the reindeers' stable
Now all the reindeer
Were on crutches or in traction
So old agent P, he knew that he
Must spring right into action
Look at that platypus, look at that platypus
Look at that platypus go
Look at that platypus, look at that platypus
Flying o'er the snow
"O'er," sir?
It's a contraction, it means "over"
It's a bit archaic
It's traditional, Carl, get o'er it
So the reindeer were out of commission
And Santa's sleigh was trashed
I'd explain it more but we've been there before
It doesn't need to be rehashed
Santa Claus was freaking out
Thought he'd have to scrap his run
He was torn inside, for without a ride
He knew Christmas Day was done
But then o'er the horizon
Came a light bright as a star
Cutting through the night was the two headlights
Of Perry's hover-car
Perry the Platypus
Had a mission at the Pole
If he could lend a hand in that frozen land
He'd help Santa reach his goal
There must have been some magic in
That platypus-themed hover-car
For when Santa saw the gas gauge
He knew it could take him far
Really, sir?
They want this album yesterday, all right?
Perry the Platypus
Took Santa on his way
And he came through like we knew he'd do
And saved our Christmas Day
The Cast of Phineas and Ferb's song Frosty the Snowman remixes the original Frosty song with a new plot twist. As Perry the Platypus is introduced, the audience is informed that Perry is a lovely shade of teal; this description is accompanied by a portrayal of his prowess in times of crisis with nerves made of steel. This segue leads to the crisis at the North Pole where Doofenshmirtz has stolen Santa's sleigh, resulting in a situation where all the reindeer are injured or unable to move. Perry takes up the task to save Christmas day by using his hover-car to help Santa deliver presents. The song ends with the message that Perry came through like they knew he would and saved Christmas.

I never thought I needed percussion in a rendition of the Agent P theme
@liamdonohoe1988
I'd say Doof is on the Naughty List for stealing the Sleigh and crashing it
