Yeah I, I, I, I, I'm gonna I'm gonna eat it up, yeah Well I feel pretty hungry And I guess that I might eat way too much baby Cause i’ll start to drool When that big juicy ham is so glazy, now baby You Know how I want it Hot and sweet tonight I just can’t resist it When you cook it up right Put a fork in my hand I’m gonna eat Christmas ham Yes, eat christmas haaaam I want to eat it up Yes, I'm starting to sweat You know my mouth's all wet What a meal, man I’m so round that i’m down on the floor but want more of that ham, man If you’re veg or a vegan Or don’t eat pork that’s alright We got a tofu version That’s pretty tight Put that fork in my hand And let me eat christmas hams Yes, eat christmas hams I want to eat it up I just might have to throw up You know I’ve eaten enough for an army Pineapple slices and glaze It drives me insane Feeding frenzy The heat from the oven The smell of the cloves Makes me want to eat it Right over the stove To hell with the yams Yeah let me eat all the ham Yes, eat all the ham I ate all the ham

about

I swear to you everyone has lost a bare minimum of 10 IQ points in the last 12 months. I mean everyone, every where- you and me included. Maybe you and me especially. It's the stress of... everything? I guess? Who can take the pressure? It's been building and building, like flu gases in a chimney that might just EXPLODE without warning. That can happen, right? Because if not, I've got a damaged chimney that I can't explain. Anywho, we made another album, and this is it, and maybe it will bring you some joy, even if you forget about it in a day or two, which is what I'm going to do, because I'm basically a giant bipedal goldfish now with a damaged chimney and another novelty holiday album credit. Like the worst carnival side show attraction in history ("Step right up- See the giant man fish with a weirdly robust novelty holiday music resume but no memory! Wonder at the mystery surrounding his damaged chimney!" (I've been to some weird carnivals)). Alright I've fulfilled annual my duty to fill out this text field again. JJ OUT!
