It's Christmas day

the wife has cooked a turkey crown

it was so dry I could cry

you know it really got me down

'Is the turkey all gone?'

are the words that I speak

But she replies

'No! We've got enough to last a week.'

I'm not amused

I've got the Christmas Turkey Blues

It's Boxing Day, it's a day I love,

i think it's great

But if we're talking of turkey

I've got a lot on my plate

It's cold turkey for lunch

and in the evening turkey stew

can someone please tell me

what am I to do?

I'm queasy and confused

I've got the Christmas turkey blues

On the 27th

I thought I'd died and gone to heaven

when she said

'we've got minced beef pie'

But to my dismay

she forgot to say

she put minced turkey inside

Turkey curry on the 28th,

now I'm getting in a state

I didn't mind it at first

but now it's turkey that I hate

On the 29th she's made a turkey in the hole

On the 30th she's made a turkey casserole

My tastebuds feel abused

I've got the Christmas turkey blues

On New Years Eve

I was so damn relieved

when she said

'we've got quiche lorraine'

But she forgot the mention

she'd taken out the bits of bacon

and a turkey quiche just don't taste the same

I've got the turkey turkey

I've got the turkey turkey blues

I've got the turkey turkey

I've got the turkey turkey blues

No wonder all the turkeys live with festive fear

No wonder all the turkeys hate this time of year

I feel it too

I've got the Christmas turkey blues
