It's the most fattening time of the year

With that pumpkin pie filling

and everyone swilling down eggnog and beer

It's the most fattening time of the year



It's the lip smackingest season of all

while your shopping you're cheating

impulsively eating that junk at the mall



It's the heav-heaviest season of all



There'll be turkeys for basting

and stuffing for tasting

and giblets and gravy will flow

there'll be cookies that mom baked

and leftover fruit cake from a christmas a long time ago



it's the scale flattening time of the year

while your diet you're blowing

there's calories going straight down to your rear

it's the scale flattening time of the year



there'll be after meal dosing

and arteries closing

cholesterol levels will grow

it's too cold to go jogging

to brisk for tobogganing 

so pass me a hot buttered roll



It's the most fattening time of the year



All those gingerbread shingles and 

chocolate Chris Kringle's will tremble in fear



It's the most fattening time, 

it's the belt loosening time, 

it's the most fattening time of the year
