Only if you assume that everything on the list was additive to the initial gifts every time. I think you can infer from the context of the song, the holiday, how gift-giving works, etc. that they were just appending to the list of gifts each day.

But those are the sort of things that LLMs are incapable of doing.

That's what the lyrics say though.

On the X day of Christmas my true love gave to me, X [item], X-1 [item], etc.

The song explicitly states they give this stuff every day.

Only if you take it literally and I don't think it was intended to be taken that way.

All songs should be taken literally, which is why I eat love and prayers, and have a restraining order against me for trying to drag Hozier into a church at knifepoint.
