Christmas Carol Confusion

Call me blonde if you will, but there are a few holiday tunes that I just don't get...





Like Jingle Bells. "Bells on bob tail ring"
What the hell is a bob tail? Surely they don't mean a small wild cat is running around with bells on.


Can someone tell me what figgy pudding is? And more importantly why haven't I gotten to eat any of it??
I used to think they said "piggy pudding" and was totally grossed out, but I like figs...



Fum....fum.....fum.....need I say more?



Ok seriously? "O Christmas tree, thy leaves are so unchanging"?
Oooooh, they must have had a plastic tree like Joe and I do.
Because let me tell you something. The leaves on the trees WE used to get DEFINITELY changed. In about a day.
Sure, it's great to have the new, Christmasy pine smell while you're putting festive ornaments on branches still damp from snow with some yuletide favorite playing in the background.
The next day, you got a nekkid stick and a pile of brown needles.
