I ate the cherries As I decorated the Christmas tree I drank the sherry As I decorated the Christmas tree Yeah, all around in my home town Power bills they not going down The reason there is plain to see It’s from the lights on the Christmas tree Yeah the lights on the Christmas trees So I say I ate the cherries Waiting to open my presents I drank the sherry Excited to know my gift’s contents I wonder what Santa got me Maybe socks? I don’t know Every time I sneak a peak Mama comes and she tell me “No” Wait ‘til Christmas morning then you’ll know And so I ate the cherries Waiting to open all my presents I drank the sherry Excited to know my gift’s contents Santa came my way one day All the way to my home town, yeah I got so excited I couldn’t calm down Just jumping up and down So I went, I went, I went to bed and I say In the morning I will play I ate the cherries Wondering what is under the tree I drank the sherry Wondering what Santa left for me Curiosity got the better of me And what is to be must be I snuck out of bed and down the hall Trying to catch Santa in the act But he saw me, took all my presents all back I say I ate the cherries But that’s all I get for being naughty I drank the sherry Santa took my gifts away from me

No pudding no pie. No turkey no thigh No pudding no pie. No turkey no thigh ‘cause, ‘cause I remember when we used to sit around the table in the kitchen mama mama serving all the food to eat as we would pass the peas and carve the meat Good spreads we had and, good times we’ve froffed Throughout the day yeah But just remember to try and pace yourself So you don’t vomit the night away yeah No pudding no pie. No turkey no thigh Ey little darlin’ don’t spill no beers No turkey no thigh Said - said - said I remember when we used to sit On the veranda after dinner, yeah! And then Adrian would turn on the Christmas lights And it would make the backyard oh so bright yeah Then Mum’d crack open bottle of cheap champagne Pour us each a glass or two, yeah! Slowly our feet stop listening to our brain But still we try to push on through Keep telling ourselves Everything's gonna be all right! Everything's gonna be all right! Everything's gonna be all right, yeah! Everything's gonna be all right! Pass out early on Christmas night Staring at the tree and the tinsel bright Sleep 10 hours and you just might Beat the hangover in the morning light yeah! No pudding no pie In this great future, you can't forget your flask; No Turkey no thigh
