Song Lyrics and Prologue Transcript from Wiggly, Wiggly Christmas
Captain Feathersword: Hoo ooh ooh ooh! Ooh, too much Christmas food. Too much Christmas food! Hoo, hoo, hoo

Murray: Captain Feathersword, what's wrong?

Captain Feathersword: Oooh, hoo. Oh I've had too much Christmas pudding, Murray, and I'm not feeling too good. Hoo, hoo hoo

Murray: Oh, Captain, there's always lot'ts of great food to eat at Christmas, but you've got to be careful not to eat too much.

Captain Feathersword: Oooh.

Greg: Captain Feathersword ate five plates of pudding all at the Christmas dinner. Three coat buttons popped which made him exclaim:

Captain Feathersword: Ooh, I'm not getting any thinner! Hoo, hoo, hoo

It's a Christmas party. Ahoy there, me hearties.

On the Goodship Feathersword.

Ahoy there, me hearties, it's my Christmas party.

Everybody, welcome aboard.

Come on everybody, let's decorate the tree

With tinsels, streamers and lights.

Hang some Christmas balls, put a star on the top.

Oh-ho-ho, what a beautiful sight, ho-ho!

We're gonna party, party, party.

It's a Christmas party. Ahoy there, me hearties.

On the Goodship Feathersword.

Ahoy there, me hearties, it's my Christmas party.

Everybody, welcome aboard.

Let's set the table. Get ready to eat

Lots of great Christmas food.

Turkey and ham, fruit salad, too.

Oh, now we're in the party mood.

We're gonna party, party, party.

Party, me hearties.

It's a Christmas party. Ahoy there, me hearties.

On the Goodship Feathersword.

Ahoy there, me hearties, it's my Christmas party.

Everybody, welcome aboard.

Ho-ho!

It's a Christmas party. Ahoy there, me hearties.

On the Goodship Feathersword.

Merry Christmas, me hearties. Ho-ho!

Everybody welcome aboard

Ho-ho!

It's a Christmas Party. Merry Christmas, me hearties.

On the Goodship Feathersword.

Everybody, welcome aboard

Trivia

 * This song was used in Wiggly Medley but the word "Christmas" was replaced with "Pirate" since it wasn't a Christmas medley.
 * Like Go Santa Go, this song was also originally filmed in 1996 to promote the album.
 * Despite Captain Feathersword being played by Paul Paddick during the song in the Wiggly, Wiggly Christmas video, Anthony voices him in the song because Paul Paddick had not made his recording yet since he was officially a cast member in 1996.
 * Murray provides the guitar with the wah-wah sound and Anthony provides the guitar with the stingy sound.
 * The music for this song was later arranged by Jimmy Barnes and Anthony Field in 2016 or 2017.
 * In the original 1996 version of an unreleased film clip, The Wiggles and the kids had pirate bandanas, in which most pirates usually wear.
