Tommy came to ask Alana and Jo, "What's a gizzard?"
After explaining that this was the gullet of a bird, where they grind up their food with pebbles, etc., they got a confused stare. They asked, "Why do you ask?"
Tommy said, "It's in the song [Burl Ives' ‘Holly Jolly Christmas']: 'Oh, ho, the mistletoe, hung where you can see. Somebody waits for you, gizzard once for me!' "
