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
