The Lyrics
I whisk soufflé, but it’s listless,
I whip soufflé, but it’s listless,
I whisk soufflé; despite briskness,
It’s not snappy, I fear.
Bad tidings will come after the oven.
Bad tidings—it’s listless and it’s saggy, I fear
So whip up some figgy pudding,
No whisking for figgy pudding,
No friggin’ soufflé—fig pudding.
Now our repast’s quite near.
They guests stow it down—they fress some,
The guests know after they get some. .
A mess: blow lunch and they retch some—
The crapper’s not near.
It’s icky their very sickness,
It’s sticky, the very slick mess,
They wish me “non-merry Christmas”
And a slappy huge ear.
I whip soufflé, but it’s listless,
I whisk soufflé; despite briskness,
It’s not snappy, I fear.
Bad tidings will come after the oven.
Bad tidings—it’s listless and it’s saggy, I fear
So whip up some figgy pudding,
No whisking for figgy pudding,
No friggin’ soufflé—fig pudding.
Now our repast’s quite near.
They guests stow it down—they fress some,
The guests know after they get some. .
A mess: blow lunch and they retch some—
The crapper’s not near.
It’s icky their very sickness,
It’s sticky, the very slick mess,
They wish me “non-merry Christmas”
And a slappy huge ear.
