Lyrics:

Oh come all ye slothful
Bleary and hungover
Oh come ye, oh come ye
To coffee and toast
Pancakes and bacon
Corn beef hash and bagels

Oh come let us eat breakfast
Oh come let us eat breakfast
Oh come let us eat breakfast
At one p.m.

Hush, newly risen,
Hush for those still sleeping
Oh hush, all ye noisies for
The aches in my head
Christ on a ten speed!
Try to take it down a notch

And quietly eat breakfast
And quietly eat breakfast
And quietly eat breakfast
At one p.m.

Yes, day, we greet thee
Though we slept through morning
Breakfast with thee be several
Advil tak'n
Hair of the canine
Now in glass appearing

Oh come let us eat breakfast
Oh come let us eat breakfast
Oh come let us eat breakfast
At one p.m.

Ah! Yes, I should figure out which recording we should upload - two of us recorded a bunch of folks singing this at Christmas Eve dinner. "Christ on a ten speed!" was sung with great enthusiasm.

I LOL'd at "hair of the canine / now in glass appearing". Fried bacon gold.

Best Boxing Day carol ever. Also works for New Year's Day.
