Cousin Emmy Lou's Perfect Christmas Dinner

Disco-house, stomping beat, shimmering synths, gospel-house bridge

(Chorus)
🎶 ’Cause it’s Christmas at Emmy Lou’s,
Where perfection is the rule!
She’s got Jesus on the centerpiece
And choir bells in the stew!
If you’re vegan or an atheist,
She’ll smile sweet… then holler “Shoo!”
’Cause nobody messes with the menu
At Christmas with Emmy Lou! 🎶

(Verse 2)
The turkey’s crisp and glistening,
The ham’s baptized in glaze—
She’s fanning herself dramatically
Like she’s caught the Holy Spirit blaze.
But Cousin Trent said he’s gluten-free
And Aunt Marie brought tofu—
Emmy Lou clutched her pearls so hard
They cracked and rolled clear across the room.

(Pre-Chorus)
She raised that giant carving knife—
Not scary, just… very clear—
And declared, “In THIS home we honor Christ—
And carbs—and butter—and cheer!”
The whole house froze in terror,
Not from danger, but her vibe—
That woman’s Christmas energy
Could revive a plant that died.

(Chorus)
🎶 It’s Christmas at Emmy Lou’s,
Where tradition must come through!
She’s got casseroles for Jesus
And a wreath in every flue!
If you question her theology,
She’ll spritz you with pumpkin poo—
’Cause the Lord loves order and sparkle
At Christmas with Emmy Lou! 🎶

(Bridge – Gospel Choir Backing)
“Hallelujah, pass the gravy!”
(AMEN!)
“Bless the pie and bless this table!”
(OH YES!)
“If you mess with Mama’s place settings…”
(HUSH NOW!)
“…I’ll rearrange your soul as I’m able!”
(TO THE LORD!)

(Verse 3)
The family finally understood—
Just nod, smile, eat, comply.
Say “Praise Him” when she gestures,
And don’t mention “plant-based pie.”
But despite her holy chaos,
They love her through and through—
’Cause no one throws a Christmas bash
Like Cousin Emmy Lou.

(Final Chorus – Big Finish)
🎶 It’s Christmas at Emmy Lou’s,
Where the chaos feels brand new!
She’ll chase you with a carving knife
But only in a comic hue!
She’s fierce, deranged, and festive,
And she’ll pray the day renews—
God bless this Southern hurricane…
Our Christmas Emmy Lou! 🎶

(Verse 1) Deck the halls and bless your heart, Emmy Lou’s been prepping since dawn. She’s got tinsel piled to heaven, And her church hat firmly on. She’s humming “Silent Night” off-key, While setting place cards just so— If one fork’s out of alignment, Lord help the soul sittin’ below! (Chorus) 🎶 ’Cause it’s Christmas at Emmy Lou’s, Where perfection is the rule! She’s got Jesus on the centerpiece And choir bells in the stew!
