"Feed the dog our peas and carrots. / Fa la la la la la la la la! / Food tastes better when you wear it. / Fa la la la la la la la la." The lyrics of the familiar carol have been rewritten to capture the chaos of a holiday family gathering, with a houseful of rowdy cousins and overworked grownups. Fresh and funny.
