Intro: A backmask of the song "Merry Christmas, Everybody Happy New Year Too" then it 
enter the song with a quite different lyrics below.


Verse 1:
                                        
                
There's a fruitcake for everybody, there's a fruitcake for everyone
                                      
               
There are b-sides to every story, if you decide to have some fun


Chorus 1:
                                      
           
Take a bite, it's alright, there's a brandy and star margarine
               
to make it right
                                      
                    
Take a bite, it's alright, a little lovin' and some fruit to bake
                  --G(x2)
life is a pice of cake


Verse 2:
                                      
               
It's the season for being happy, but the reason is dead and gone
                                      
                     
When the reason for being happy, takes a backseat when a season's done


Chorus 2:
                                            
Take a bite (take a bite), it's alright (it's alright)
                                                
    
Taste the taste that sent all mothers giggling in sheer delight
                                            
Take a bite (take a bite), it's alright (it's alright)
                                     
A little lovin' and some fruit to bake, life is a piece of
E---D (x4)
cake


Bridge:

Everybody, everywhere people do you really care
                                   
Christmas Time has once again arrived
(Repeat)

Some mistletoe and a little snow
                                           
But we don't get it down at fruitcake heights
(Repeat)

Oh no!


Interlude: F--G--D----F--G--D--C(hold)

                                                         
Stars are falling down from heaven, But it's nowhere near our town
                                                      
  (Drum rolls)
Miracles are falling down from heaven, But it's nowhere near our town


Verse 3: Just like Verse 1 but look at the last line, so different

                                        
                
There's a fruitcake for everybody, there's a fruitcake for everyone
                                      
          
There's a bside to every story, and the story has just begun

(Repeat Chorus 2 except last word)
