| Sister Bridget by the stair... a glass of wine and she's almost there.
|
| Cousin Jimmy at the door... another beer and he's on the floor.
|
| Friends and neighbours come around,
|
| Waste no time we're heaven-bound.
|
| But not before we raise a glass to good camaraderie.
|
| Stinky Joe from down the street fell right over his own three feet.
|
| He's doubled up in the outside loo, to taste again the devil's brew.
|
| Friends and neighbours come around,
|
| Waste no time we're heaven-bound.
|
| But not before we raise a glass to good camaraderie.
|
| So make yourselves jolly under mistletoe, holly and ivy.
|
| Get to it - and be in good cheer.
|
| And when it's all over... pigs gone to clover -
|
| Will the last man at the party wish me a happy New Year.
|
| The house is jumping, suppers up. |
| Curried goat in a paper cup.
|
| Forks of plastic, knives of tin... who cares what state the goat is in.
|
| Someone with the gift of song
|
| Has brought his pal to sing along.
|
| Now they're turning up old Frank Sinatra on the stereo. |
