All I Want For Christmas Is Food!

To the tune of:
All I Want For Christmas is You!


I can eat a lot for Christmas
               I just like to sit and feed
I don’t care for shirts and sweaters
         Fish and Chips are all I need

I don’t need no mistletoe  
      Chocolate cakes and cookie dough
Get me in the mood
         All I want for Christmas is food!!


I like seafood and Italian
     Shrimp and pizza set me free
I don’t need new pens or wallets
        Sandwiches are fine for me

Yes, and steak with baked potato
   Sour cream and buttered bread
So much better than a gift card
         I’m so happy when I’m fed


Wrapping presents takes its toll
     Send Chow Mein ( with six egg roll)!
Not to be too crude BUT
         All I want for Christmas is food!!!

You have quite a menu for the festivities. Afterwards, you can go on a diet. :)
