On the stovetop, soup is bubbling
In the oven, baking bread
In the cellar, wine is aging
On the roof, a severed head
‘Round the windows, lights are twinkling
In the playroom, children play
In the bathrooms, incense burning
In the yard, the corpses sway
‘Neath the table, cat is sleeping
On the walls hang works of art
Near the stove, the clock is ticking
In the fridge, a human heart
Won’t you come and pay a visit?
Won’t you have some soup and bread?
There’ll be wine and brandy flowing
Please don’t mind the severed head
See the lights? They’re up for Christmas!
Tim’s toy car goes ‘toot toot toot’
Please do come and
pay a visit
Just ignore the trees’ strange fruit
When the wine and brandy finish
We’ll all play a game of bridge
For dessert, we’ll all have cookies
Just don’t eat what’s in the fridge.
