"Today we salute YOU Ms Burn-the-Christmas-tree-in-the-fireplace! When the holidays are over YOU don't simply throw it out. YOU have a match, and a plan!"
Singer: "
Oh watch it goooooooooo!"
"Has the tree just been taken down? Or has been sitting a few weeks becoming even more combustable? It doesn't matter to you!"
Singer: "
Where is the hose!"
"So pop open a bottle of ice cold Bud Light oh keeper of the holiday flame! Either way, we see one hot winner!"
