    The gifts weren’t given recursively. Though Christmas would be a lot more exciting if they were.

      It’s literally what the song says. On the first day, I got a partridge in a pear tree. On the second day, I got 2 turtle doves and a partridge in a pair tree.

      If you think the gifts weren’t given recursively it’s because you believe it should be that way, not because you’re listening to the lyrics as they’re written.
