A Fork and a Plate

I don’t care

If you’re wearing a sweater

Or a bow in your hair

Life is much better when the cider is spiked

When the underwear’s longer

Just like the night

Brothers and sisters, don’t be late

Whatever holiday you celebrate

There’s a hook on the coat rack

There’s a fork and a plate

I won’t complain

If the pie is store-bought

Or the mistletoe’s fake

Take whatever you brought and lay it out pretty

Red wine will do fine

Wintertime in the city

Brothers and sisters, don’t be late

Whatever holiday you celebrate

There’s a hook on the coat rack

There’s a fork and a plate

Decorating the halls

Check the lights for bad bulbs

Enough food for us all to eat way too much

Even if the snow turns

To a molasses mush

There’ll be yellow ice rinks on the sidewalk

Brothers and sisters, don’t be late

Whatever holiday you celebrate

There’s a hook on the coat rack

There’s a fork and a plate

Brothers and sisters, don’t be late

Whatever holiday you celebrate

There’s a hook on the coat rack

There’s a fork and a plate

Brothers and sisters, don’t be late

Whatever holiday you celebrate

There’s a hook on the coat rack

There’s a fork and a plate
