I'm giving thanks so we need to get this dinner started
I'm giving thanks so we need to get this dinner started

Get this dinner started here on Thanksgiving day
Everybody's waiting for turkey buffet
There'll be lots of gravy and cranberry sauce
I'll devour mashed potatoes just like a boss
Grandma filled the table with a feast for a king
There's enough to feed us from today to next spring

I'm giving thanks so we need to get this dinner started
(It's all about that baste)
I'm giving thanks so we need get this dinner started

All the relatives are here and wanting a meal
Set aside the animosity that we feel
We can tolerate each other passably good
If we have a kitchen that has plenty of food
Some'll go and check out the games on TV
Others sit and gossip 'bout the family tree

I'm giving thanks that we finally got this dinner started
(I'm stacking food like Jenga)
I'm giving thanks that we finally got this dinner started
(I'm reaching 'cross the table)
I'm giving thanks that we finally got this dinner started
(I'm breaking all feed limits)
I'm giving thanks that we finally got this dinner started

After we have gobbled 'til we have bulging eyes
That's when grandma tells us there's a boatload of pies
We don't know how we can eat another bite
We're all full of stuffing and our trousers are tight
But we can't resist the call of all that dessert
Now we're popping buttons from our stretched-out shirts

I'm giving thanks that nobody ate 'til they exploded
(Like Mister Creosote)
I'm giving thanks that nobody ate 'til they exploded
Nobody exploded, boom!
Nobody exploded, kaboom
Nobody exploded
Nobody exploded
Nobody exploded, kaboom

...
[KABOOM!]
