Chet The Singing Parrot






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 a colorful but quiet bird.


The man agrees that Chet certainly is pretty, 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!
