The Topical Poet - Christmas Takeover

The topical poet takes over the blog today with his sideways take on Christmas.

  

Christmas Dinner

Soggy roast potatoes

rock hard Brussels sprouts 

the turkey's dry as sandpaper 

And the stuffing tastes like grout. 

The gravy has got holes in it.

The carrots are over boiled. 

The pigs are wrapped in hessian sacks

And the parsnips have been spoiled. 

 We’ve had our Christmas pudding

And the Queen's upon the telly 

the orchestra has started

so room is getting smelly.

Hey the family’s together

let’s cheer rejoice and sing,

but now Christmas dinner is over

let the arguments begin.

Food for thought

Tis the season to be greedy, fa la la la la la la la la

Buy more food, ignore the needy fa la la la la la la la la

you’ve got wine, you’ve got sweets fa la la la la la la la la

While they are sleeping in the streets fa la la la la la la la la
