You  know Dasher and Dancer  and Prancer  and Vixen,
Comet  and Cupid and...  Chopper and Nixon.
 But do you recall,
 The least  famous reindeer of all?
This  song's for you.
This  song's for you.
This  is the tale of a reindeer that  nobody knows,
Shoved  down the back and largely ignored on account  of a nasal disfigurement.
Not  unlike Rudolph in that sense,
 The hallmarks  are almost the same.
 Instead  of a red shiny nose that  brought Rudolph his fame...
Fabian  had just... a cavity.
No  nose at all,
 Just a big empty  space,
 In the middle  of his face.
 Just a couple of chambers
What  are you looking at?
D'ya  want a piece of this?
This  song's for you.
This  song's for you.
Abnormal  snouts were surprisingly common in  reindeer.
Rudolph  and Fabian both fell victim,
 To the elves  and their cost-cutting  measures.
 In keeping  their overheads down,
 The elves  fed the reindeer on reindeer.
 And on top  of that, the poor reindeer were  also in-bred.
 So Fabian  had just... a cavity.
 His hooter  was lacking.
Bugger  all schnozz!
All  this because,
His  dad was also his sister.
Who  he then ate.
This  chicken tastes funny. Can I have some of yours?
This  song's for you.
Tragic  but true.
 Disliked  by his peers,
 This disfigured  deer was alone.
 He watched  from afar,
 As Rudolph  the star,
 Would lead all  the others back  home.
 But before you  get too sympathetic,
There's  another thing you should know.
 Sure, his nose was  upsetting,
 But reindeer  are not quite that shallow.
 'Cause Fabian  was... a tosser!
Not  nice at all!
 An arrogant  fool!
 A self-serving  tool!
 An absolute face-hole.
Ahhhhhhh...
No-one  likes you!
Surgery  won't fix the vortex,
 That is your black heart!
