"A BIT OF THIS AND THAT"

"A BIT OF THIS AND THAT"

CHRISTMAS IS COMING AND I'LL BE GETTING FAT.

EATING EVERYTHING IN SIGHT A BIT OF THIS AND THAT.

WHATEVER IS IN FRONT OF ME I CARN'T RESIST A NIBBLE.

AND I'M NOT USED TO DRINKING SO DOWN MY CHIN I DRIBBLE.

CHOCOLATE BAUBLES HANGING FROM THE CHRISTMAS TREE.

I'VE BOUGHT FOR THE CHILDREN AND THEY'LL BE TEMPTING ME.

THE FRIDGE FULL OF GOODIES WHEN I OPEN THE DOOR.

OH! JUST A BIT OF CHESHIRE AND THEN I WANT SOME MORE.

THEN I OPEN MY CONTAINERS FULL UP OF CHRISTMAS CAKE.

AND GRAB A FEW PIECES WELL THERE MINE FOR TO TAKE.

THE TARTS AND MINCE PIES ARE A DOWNFALL FOR ME.

AS WITH THEM I LOVE BRANDY SAUCE AND SOMETIMES CREAM YOU SEE.

SO OUT COMES MY DISH AND I POP IN ONE OR TWO.

POUR THE SAUCE OVER THEM AND IN BETWEEN I CHEW.

A FEW SALTED PEANUTS LYING THERE ON A TRAY.

I JUST CARN'T LEAVE THESE ALONE I'M EATING THEM ALL DAY.

I REALY REALY DO MAKE A GLUTTON OF MYSELF.

AND I CARN'T RESIST THE ROSES CHOCS TOO UPON THE SHELF.

FANCY JARS IV'E DECORATED SCATTERED ROUND MY FLAT.

ALSORTS IV'E PUT IN THEM ALL WHICH MAKE ME FAT.

CHOCOLATE PEANUTS AND RAISINS ALL OF THEM AS SUCH.

I USUALLY GRAB A FEW OF THOSE SAYING THANKYOU VERY MUCH.

I'M ALSO STILL A KID AT HEART SO I DO USUALLY BUY.

A FEW SELECTION BOXES FOR THE CONTENTS TO TRY.

IN THE HALL I PLACE A TROLLEY TO GREET ALL OF MY GUESTS.

PILED UP WITH EVERYTHING IT SIMPLY IS THE BEST.

BUT YOU CAN GUARANTEE EVERY TIME I PASS IT BY.

I'LL PICK A PIECE OF THIS AND THAT AND GIVE IT A TRY.

BY THE TIME THEY ALL ARRIVE THERE ARE LOTS TO REPLACE.

YES I BET YOUV'E GUESSED ALREADY IT'S BECAUSE IV'E FED MY FACE.

NOW COMES THE WORST PART AFTER ALL OF THAT.

I ASK THE MIRROR QUESTIONS AND IT ANSWERS YES YOUR FAT.

I'M TRYING TO GET READY FOR THE PANTOMINE AT NIGHT.

THEN I THINK TO MYSELF OH! YOUR NOT A PRETTY SIGHT.

I PULL THE ZIP UP ON MY DRESS AND IT WILL HARDLY MEET.

I SAY DAMN THAT BLOOMING TRIFLE AND ALL THOSE CHRISTMAS TREATS.

I'M HOLDING IN MY STOMACH NOW TO TRY MAKE IT LOOK FLAT.

GASPING FOR BREATH I BREATH OUT RELEASE THE FAT.

I THEN FEEL SOMETHING LOOSE AND I HAVE TO ADMIT.

MY BRA HOOKS JUST SNAPPED AND I'M LOSING MY T--.

THE BEDS PILED HIGH BY NOW WITH CLOTHES OF EVERY COLOUR AND KIND.

AND NONE OF THEM WILL FIT ME SO I'M OUT OF MY MIND.

I HAVE TO RING MY FRIEND AND SAY I'M NOT VERY WELL.

SOMETHINGS GONE WRONG AND IV'E STARTED TO SWELL.

OH!I'M SORRY ABOUT THAT KATH DON'T WORRY TAKE  A BREAK.

HAVE  A NICE LIE DOWN AND REST FOR GOODNESS SAKE.

SO THE PANTO IS OUT AND I HAVE TO NOW STOP IN.

SAYING TO MYSELF OH! WHY CARN'T I BE SLIM.

I'M MOODY AND ALL DEPRESSED NOW THAT IV'E MISSED JACK.

WITH HIS BEANSTALK AND THE REST OF THEM SO I REACH FOR A SNACK.

I'M AT IT ONCE AGAIN NOW FEEDING MY FACE.

CLOTHES ARE ALL AROUND ME ALL OVER THE PLACE.

YES CHRISTMAS IS COMING AND I'LL BE GETTING FAT.

BUT IT'S LOVELY JUST TO NIBBLE ON A BIT OF THIS AND THAT.

WHEN NEW YEAR APPROACHES I HAVE ALWAYS FOUND.

I LOOK INTO THE MIRROR AND I'M COMPLETLY ROUND.

I MAKE MY RESOLUTION WITH A BIG CHEESY GRIN.

AND PROMISE TO MYSELF FOR THE SUMMER I'LL GET SLIM.

CARROTS  GRAPES SATSUMAS WILL BE SCATTERED ROUND THE FLAT.

A DIFFERANT KIND OF NIBBLE AND A BIT OF THIS AND THAT.

I WILL  MAKE MY MIND UP TO BE SLIM BY EASTER TIME.

TILL THEN A BIT OF THIS AND THAT FOR NOW WILL BE JUST FINE.

I'M GOING TO ENJOY IT  LIKE IV'E PUT HERE IN MY RHYME.

YOU HAVE GOT TO TRY AND UNDERSTAND I EAT AT "CHRITMAS TIME".
