Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I feel a change of plans is flowing through the atmosphere
Christmas song keep playing far and group cutting in line
I hope Santa bring me exactly what I have in mind
I want a piece ah pork
I want a piece ah pork
I want a piece ah pork for me Christmas
Keep your Calaloo
I want a piece ah pork for me Christmas
I want a piece ah pork
I want a piece ah pork
I want a piece ah pork for me Christmas
I don't want no Manacoo
Keep your Calaloo
I want a piece ah pork for me Christmas
We don′t need no pigeon stew, a piece of ham will do
You could put this in pastel, I eatin it as well
I reachin' Toronto, go apart through Mexico
Don't care wherever I go, one thing I wan′ ya ah know
I want a piece ah pork
I want a piece ah pork
I want a piece ah pork for me Christmas
I don′t want no Manacoo
Keep your Calaloo
I want a piece ah pork for me Christmas

I don't want no Manacoo
Keep your Calaloo
I want a piece ah pork for my Christmas
I put in me order earlier cause I don′t wan' get leave out
When I drink in it by bunch, I wan′ pour grease from my mouth
You have apples by the case, you could bring wine by the keg
All that will go to waste, once I get me a taste
I want a piece ah pork
I want a piece ah pork
I want a piece ah pork for me Christmas
I don't want no Manacoo
Keep your Calaloo
I want a piece ah pork for me Christmas
I want a piece ah pork
I want a piece ah pork
