Gloria Estefan & Rosie Gonna Eat For Christmas Lyrics

GONNA EAT FOR CHRISTMAS
(Blades / Estefan)
Rosie O'Donnell & Gloria Estefan - 1999

Rosie:
Don't want tinsel, don't want bows
Don't want Rudolph's shiny nose
I'm gonna eat for Christmas

Gloria:
From my diet I will stray
But I'll workout the next day (Oh what a shock!)
Gonna eat for Christmas

Both: It's a time for giving
Rosie: Won't you give me mashed potatoes and ham?
Both: It's a time for sharing
Gloria: Are you gonna polish off those yams?
Rosie: You mean these?
Gloria: No?
Rosie: Yes I am

Rosie:
I don't say this to be nice
I'll have more black beans and rice
Gonna eat for Christmas

Gloria: At the family shindig, gonna be the Christmas pig
Both: But I'll leave some room
Gloria: I'm planning quite a buffet
Rosie: Please don't throw away
Both:
That leftover food
Santa gave us some advice
To be naughty's very nice
Cause when you're stuffed
It'll always feel like
Christmas to you!

Rosie: Oh, that was exhausting, oh we got a break now?
Gloria: Oh, yeah
Rosie: I am so hungry Glo, what'ya got?
Gloria: Put down that sandwich
Rosie: Well, do you have anything...
Gloria: You can't eat now
Rosie: I can eat this now
Gloria: No, there's no time
Rosie: How much time do we have?
Gloria: We're almost going to sing now..
Rosie: Let me just..wait..I can swallow..you take the first part
Gloria: Get her some water for god sake
Rosie: I'll join you, go.

Gloria:
There's a twinkle in my eye
For a piece of pumpkin pie
Gonna eat for Christmas

Rosie:
If I eat one more soufflé, I won't fit in Santa's sleigh
Both: I'll be filled with gloom
Gloria: To face the scale the next day, is no holiday
Rosie: We'll sing a different tune (you know it)
Gloria: Take advantage while we may
Rosie:
Let's pig out on Christmas day
Cause when you're stuffed
It'll always feel like Christmas
To you

Rosie: That was fun
Gloria: Whoa, Yeah
Rosie: You know there's a candy machine in the lobby.
Did you see it? No, it's there.
Gloria: I can't believe you
Rosie: Oy!
