The Battle

The Snow Miser vs. Heat Miser rivalry has been popular ever since the release of the animated TV Christmas special “A Year Without a Santa Claus’, which aired on December 10th, 1974 on the ABC television network.


Snow Miser

Snow Miser vs. Heat Miser

Who is Snow Miser? Snow Miser is the icy son of Mother Nature who LOVES to keep his part of the world as COLD as can be! When Mrs. Claus travels to see Snow Miser to ask if he could make it snow in a southern town on Christmas just one time, he agrees but it is Mrs Claus’ task to get permission from Heat Miser, who controls the weather in that town (Southtown). But first, let’s hear this chilly guy sing!

Heat Miser

Snow Miser vs. Heat Miser

Who is Heat Miser? Well, he’s the fiery son of Mother Nature who LOVES to keep his territory as HOT as can be! When Mrs. Claus visits this hot tempered guy to ask permission for him to let it snow in Southtown, he blows his top! How dare you! Heat Miser then goes on to rant about how his mother (Mother Nature) and Santa Claus always favored Snow Miser. Before we continue, let’s here this steamy guy sing!

Argument

Heat Miser vs Snow Miser: Heat Miser considers the request and decides that he will allow it to snow in Southtown if Snow Miser would allow some warm weather at the North Pole. Predictably, Snow Miser blows his top and refuses! Mrs Claus then decides that her best course of action is to go over their heads to Mother Nature herself! Mother Nature fixes the problem by putting her boys in their place! End of argument

Snow Miser Song Lyrics

I’m Mister White Christmas
I’m Mister Snow
I’m Mister Icicle
I’m Mister Ten Below
Friends call me Snow Miser
What ever I touch
Turns to snow in my clutch
I’m too much!

[Chorus:]
He’s Mister White Christmas
He’s Mister Snow
He’s Mister Icicle
He’s Mister Ten Below

Friends call me Snow Miser,
What ever I touch
Turns to snow in my clutch

[Chorus:]
He’s too much!

I never want to see a day
That’s over forty degrees
I’d rather have it thirty,
Twenty, ten, five and let it freeeeEEEEEEeeze!


Heat Miser Song Lyrics

I’m Mister Green Christmas
I’m Mister Sun
I’m Mister Heat Blister
I’m Mister Hundred and One
They call me Heat Miser
Whatever I touch
Starts to melt in my clutch
I’m too much!

[Chorus]
He’s Mister Green Christmas
He’s Mister Sun
He’s Mister Heat Blister
He’s Mister Hundred and One
[Heat Miser]
They call me Heat Miser
Whatever I touch
Starts to melt in my clutch
He’s too much!

I never want to know a day
That’s under sixty degrees
I’d rather have it eighty, ninety, one hundred’s a breeze!
Oh, some like it hot, but I like it really hot!

[Chorus]
He’s Mister Green Christmas
He’s Mister Sun
He’s Mister Heat Blister
He’s Mister Hundred and One

    It’s so funny, I noticed that mistake decades ago, and never heard it mentioned by anyone, I never thought I would either. Until I saw this video moments ago. In fact, I was thinking that thought just as I was watching and I was blown away by the typewriiten statement at the opening. I was even more blown away when I saw your alternate scene correcting the mistake. Great Job!!!

    From the days when cartoons were for pure enjoyment. How I miss the days of Looney Tunes, and Bugs Bunny/Road Runner show. The days of pure, and simple, enjoyment.
