Help me find that Christmas song please?

[Headfry]

It was around 1984'ish
It was a version of the 12 days of Christmas, but a funny version telling of how 'mother' was now taking Valium and drinking vodka, due to the lords a leaping and the maids a milking etc......cant find this song anywhere.....help me please its driving me nuts!

Thanks so much Shirley

Hedfry, if I can remember rightly, the letters were recited, (or read) as the music played in the background.

[Headfry]

I think you are right bramble..... will continue my search, thank you.
