Sometimes the worst part about Christmas is doing a million dishes.

lyrics

(Doin’ The) Dishes for Christmas

We’ve been in this house together
For nearly the whole year
No vacations or shows with friends
Or parties over here
So let’s make this one special
This Christmas us alone
At the very least we can cook a feast
As quarantine as shown

Pre heat the oven to 350
Go down to the basement
Grab the 15-inch roaster
And the rack and the baster

Pull out some bowls for mixing
Stirring, whisking, and folding
And a spatula for scraping
Not the kind for flipping

We’ll eat like good King Wenceslas
If we cook with everything we got
Looks like we’re...

Doing the dishes for Christmas (endless dishes)
Doin’ the dishes again (and again and again)

Heat up the two-quart saucepan
And the ten-quart stock pot
Fill the double boiler
Add the candy thermometer
Use a wooden and a slotted spoon
A masher and ladle
Slice with a chef and serrated knife
A cutting board ain’t this the life

We’ll make some figgy pudding
Is there a bundt cake pan in this house?
Looks like we’re...

Doing the dishes for Christmas (endless dishes)
Doin’ the dishes again (and again and again)

Dear Santa,
If I could get just one thing this year

A 24-inch top control
Dishwasher with a stainless-steel door
Sensor wash and rinse and hold
Delay start, delicate, and high temp wash

And Santa could it be installed
By December 25th
So we’re not

Doing the dishes for Christmas (Endless dishes)
Doin’ the dishes again (And again and again and again)
Don’t want to be doing the dishes for Christmas (Endless dishes)
Doin’ the dishes again
