The Yuletide Festival Feast Song
by Merry and Pippin
transcribed by Llinos

The Yuletide Festival needs a feast,
That will last two days at least,
There's lots of ale and food as well,
We went shopping (can you tell?)
We love our food and thought we'd better,
Keep it in order and to the letter,
So here's the menu (it's quite a lot)
A list of everything we got:-

Apples, apricots, aubergines,
Bread and butter and baked beans,
Chocolate cake, cheese and chips,
Duck with dumpling, dates and dips,
Eggs au gratin, escalope,
Fresh fish, fried fish, fish-in-stock,
Gammon, gnocchi, gingerbread bake,
Hare, haggis and haddock steak,
Ice cream, iced cakes and iced peels,
Junket, jam and jellied eels,
Kippers, kebabs, kedgeree,
Larks' tongues, leeks and lemon tea,
Mushrooms, mousse and mayonnaise,
Noodles, nuts and nougat glaze,
Oranges, oysters and ox heart,
Pancakes, pies with plum tart,
Quartern loaf, quail, quince,
Rice, roe and rabbit mince,
Soup, soufflé, strawberries, sweets
Toffee, tomatoes, treacle treats
Upsidedown cake, ugli fruits
Venison, veal and vegetable roots
Wines, waffles, walnut bake,
Xtra-big Yulemas cake,
Yoghurt, yams and yorkshire pud,
Zabaglione's always good!

That's the lot from A to Zed,
Time to drink and get fed,
We hope you have enjoyed this list
Now have some fun and let's get pissed!

Llinos apologises for these two's propensity to write silly songs.

Notes for American cousins:-
Pissed is used in the sense of inebriation, not the way you use it, as in cross.
The letter 'Z' in original English is pronounced "Zed" not "Zee" so it really does rhyme with "fed".
