Thanksgiving
Family and friends arrive
Big dinner with stuffing, gravy, and pumpkin pies
Turkey’s in the oven, can’t eat it alive

Parents so full they can’t drive
Everybody’s weight has doubled in size
Family and friends arrive

Had one big meal but it feels like five
Eating so much it’s like you want a prize
Turkey’s in the oven, can’t eat it alive

So full needing to take five
Happiness in everyone’s eyes
Family and friends arrive

Can’t get up, needing to strive
Not eating so much would have been wise
Turkey’s in the oven, can’t eat it alive

Time to leave, no one wants to drive
This is about the time of demise
Family and friends arrive
Turkey’s in the oven, can’t eat it alive
