I'm glad you're all in the holiday spirit.
And you can't avoid it right now.
There's holiday music playing everywhere.
Do you like the holiday songs?
[APPLAUSE]
Yeah, see?
That is interesting.
Everyone likes holiday songs, because there's
something for everybody.
There's like-- there's a song for people who like snowmen.
There is a song for people who like figgy pudding.
There's a song for people who like gay apparel.
[LAUGHTER]
Every song is catchy.
The whole family can sing along.
You can hear your grandma say "ho," you know?
It's also a great way to make money, I will tell you that.
You can write one hit Christmas song and you're set for life.
That's mailbox money.
That's what they call that.
You just walk to the mailbox and you get a check,
just because you have one hit Christmas song.
So that's what I'm going to do right now.
So the only problem is I can't write music, or sing,
or play an instrument.
But luckily, there's somebody who can do all three of those.
Please welcome my friend and collaborator
on my new Christmas song, Gwen Stefani.
[APPLAUSE]
Wow, this is an honor.
All right.
So here's-- look how excited they are.
They haven't even heard the song yet.
Have a seat, everybody.
Here's what we're going to do.
I've done most of the hard work.
I came up with the song title, because that's
the hardest part, it's what's the song's soul is.
So I'm actually coming up with lyrics and melodies
on the spot?
And singing it, yes.
That's what you do.
But I have come up with the song title, which
as I said, is the hardest part.
And then, we'll decide, after I give you
all the song titles, which is going to be the biggest hit.
Perfect.
Or maybe we'll let them vote, I don't know.
The first one is very relatable.
It's called, "The Mall Parking Blues."
OK.
Let me get thinking here.
"Mall Parking Blues," you know?
This is hard.
I mean, this is like--
I'm trying to dig deep into my gift here, and--
Well-- she said she's--
OK, let me--
--going to dig into her gift.
[JINGLE BELLS RINGING]
OK--
Oh.
(SINGING) Well, it's time to go to the mall
again, so many gifts to be bought.
So I'm putting a sweater under my sweater,
a pillow with my sweater, and parking
in the expectant Christmas lady's spot.
Oh!
[APPLAUSE]
That was-- what's good about it.
I think I can do it better!
No.
I feel like I have a better one.
OK.
Or let's make up another one.
All right, we'll do another.
Here's one that's topical.
It's called "Office Christmas Party."
OK.
[TAMBOURINE JINGLING]
OK, I got it.
I got it, I got it.
(SINGING) There's not going to be any hugging this year.
No, there's not going to be any hugging this year.
No, there's not going to be any hugging this year,
and no beer, and no wine, and no alcohol.
Oh, that's boring.
[APPLAUSE]
That's a boring Christmas party.
And no flirting.
That's a boring Christmas party, I'll tell you that.
All right, here's one that's sure to be a classic,
"I'll Be Coming Out This Christmas."
Oh.
You're so creative.
[MUSIC - "JINGLE BELLS"]
Oh.
I feel like they're going to say that we might have ripped
off this melody a little bit.
Really?
Yeah, maybe the tune.
No, I don't think so.
It's hard to be on the spot, you know what I'm saying?
(SINGING) I'm coming out this Christmas.
It's going to be a fun, fun Christmas.
And I cannot wait to tell my family that Lisa's more than
just a roommate.
[APPLAUSE]
That's my favorite.
That's a good one.
That's your favorite?
That's a good one.
Thanks for helping me.
Thank you.
All right.
I'll see you later in the show.
Yes!
Thank you.
OK, thank you.
All right.
She'll be back later in the show.
[APPLAUSE]
Well, one of those is sure to be a hit, I'd say.
