A Song For Christmas
Socks and Food and Drink and Sleep - To be sung, or more appropriately spoken, to the tune of Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll by the late, great Ian Dury.
Socks and Food and Drink and Sleep
Is all what Christmas means to me.
Socks and Food and Drink and Sleep
Is what my body needs.
Keep your silly toys, don't throw them out the window
Don't annoy your Gran, she's sleeping at the telly.
Dad's in the garden, he's been at the sherry.
Its all he ever does, singing you don't like.

Socks and Food and Drink and Sleep
Socks and Food and Drink and Sleep
Is what my body needs.
Every bit of clothing, makes you look so silly.
Santa hats a-glowing, always slightly smelly.
Got to wear the paper hat for Uncle Billy
See my tailor, she's called Mum, she will make it fit.
Here's a little bit of advice
You should take it Christmassy.
Don't you watch that film of Bond
Gran will just snore in your ear.
Drink the port and eat the bird
Get all you can from the day.
Get your teeth into a small slice
Of the cake of Christmassy.

Socks and Food and Drink and Sleep
Socks, Food, Drink, Sleep.
And with that, just time to wish you all A Merry Christmas and a Guid New Year. See you then, hopefully.
