What is figgy pudding?

We want some figgy pudding
Please bring it right here!
We won’t go until we get some

We won’t go until we get some
So bring it out here!
The pudding that the (apparently drunk) guests singing We Wish You a Merry Christmas demand so rudely is a variant on the tradition Christmas Pudding. 

 If your guests 'won't go until {they} get some' you could try a recipe here.
