Went to the store, sat on Santa's lap,
Asked him to bring my friends all kinds of crap.
Said, all you need is to write them a song.
Now you haven't heard it yet, so don't try to sing along,
No, don't sing along…
Monica, Monica,
Have a Happy Hanukkah!
Saw Santa Claus,
He said hello to Ross.
And please tell Joey,
Christmas will be snowy!!
And Rachel and Chandler,
Have err-umm-glander!"

Did all 6 Friends appear in every episode?
Every one of Friends' six lead performers has previously performed in situational humor and, occasionally, improvisational comedy. In each episode, all six actors are included. David Crane, who created the series, aimed for all six actors to have equal prominence, and the show was praised as "the first true 'ensemble' show."
To maintain the ensemble model and prevent any one actor from taking center stage, the cast members chose to negotiate their salaries collectively, entered the same performing categories for prizes, and requested to be featured together on magazine cover images throughout the first season.
