Lyrics
Kermit the Frog: You know, there's only one thing I don't like about Christmas.

Rowlf the Dog: What's that, Kermit?

Kermit the Frog: Waiting for it to arrive.

Link Hogthrob: Oh!

Mildred Huxtetter: Aw, Kermit!

Kermit the Frog: No, it's true. I've been counting the days since last Christmas.

Rowlf the Dog: Well, Kermit, there's one thing you can do to make waiting easier.

Kermit the Frog: What's that, Rowlf?

Rowlf the Dog: Sing!

Uncle Deadly: That's what I was afraid you would say.

Rowlf the Dog: And we've got the perfect song for you. Hit it, guys!

Dr. Teeth, Floyd Pepper , Zoot and Lips : Count, count, count, counting the days. Count, count, count, counting the days. Count, count, count, counting the days. Count, count, count, counting the days. Count, count, count, counting the days. Count, count, count, counting the days.
