All I Want For Christmas Is Food

[Written last year, or perhaps the year before But youtube was awash with parodies in a Similar vein. Unless I didn’t look properly, I Haven’t posted it before... so here you go...] *** I don’t want a lot for Christmas Food is the one thing I need I just care that it tastes pleasant Can you eat a Christmas tree I just want ham on the bone And fresh cream profiteroles And some cheese that’s blue All I want for Christmas is food I just want hot nosh for Christmas Food is the one thing I need I just care that it tastes pleasant Can you eat a Christmas tree Make sure you don’t hang my choccies Just above the fireplace Sausage rolls would make me happy Food is joy on Christmas Day I just want ham on the bone And fresh cream profiteroles And some cheese that’s blue All I want for Christmas is food baby I won’t ask for stuff this Christmas I can’t eat a dish of snow I’m just gonna keep on eating Under eating’s a no no I want marmite crisps and salted A Tuna and corn sandwich I might even stay awake to Eat a reindeer till I’m sick ’cause I drank some beer tonight Hold on mate, my bladder’s tight What more can I chew Baby all I want for Christmas is food Food Fairy lights are shining On the chocolates over there And I found some chips and Lager in my lair And ’cause the oven’s minging I hear microwaves dinging Santa won’t you bring me the thing I really need Won’t you bring peas and bacon to me Oh I just want some nosh for Christmas Chips is all I’m asking for I just want to drink my gravy Spam is right outside my door Oh I just want to gnaw this bone More than you could ever know Make me chicken stew Baby all I want for Christmas is food All I want for Christmas is food baby All I want for Christmas is food baby

G'day Terry ... that's exactly what I'd be more than happy with. I could listen to your lyrics all Christmas Day and not feel guilty reaching on the table - thanks Terry - Lindsay

Thanks, Lindsay. If you had British television and murmurs about lockdowns, you’d probably think that food is all there will be this Christmas. Time will tell. Cheers. Terry

These Lyric reworkings can prove difficult to follow when the original has a complete rhythm/tempo change as this does toward the end. Hope you managed to follow it, Tom. The last few days seem to have sapped my funny, so I had nothing new to post. Thought this might fill the gap. Terry

Eat a reindeer til I’m sick, what a genius line Terry, I suspect you held back a bit on this one, and probably rightly so, you have me thinking about all sorts of crazy Christmas stuff to eat, a great lyric just right for the season, cheers David
