A few days before Christmas, a man enters a pet store looking for a unique gift for his wife. The store manager tells him, he has just what he`s looking for! A beautiful parrot named Chet that sings Christmas carols. He brings the husband over to the colourful but quiet bird. The man agrees that Chet certainly is retty, but he doesn`t seem to be much for singing. The manager tells him to watch as he reaches into his pocket and pulls out a lighter. The manager then clicks the lighter and holds it under Chet`s left foot. Immediately Chet starts singing; "Silent Night, Holy Night." The husband is very impressed with Chet`s singing abilities and watches as the manager moves the lighter underneath Chet`s right foot. Chet now starts to sing "Jingle Bells, Jingle All the Way." The husband says Chet is perfect and that he`ll take him. The husband rushes home to his wife and insists upon giving her this wonderful gift immediately. He presents Chet and starts to explain the parrot`s special talent. Demonstrating, he holds a lighter under Chet`s left foot and the bird sings "Silent Night." He then moves the lighter under the right foot and Chet lets loose a round of "Jingle Bells." The wife is absolutely impressed, and with a mischievous grin asks her husband what happens if he holds the lighter between Chet`s legs instead. Curious the husband moves the lighter between the bird`s legs, and the bird begins to sing........ "Chet`s Nuts Roasting on an Open Fire!" |
