The Muppets - Ebenezer Scrooge (From A Muppets Christmas Carol) songtekst
Je score:
When a cold wind blows it chills you, Chills you to the bone But there's nothin' in nature that freezes your heart Like years of bein' alone Its paints you with indifference, Like a lady paints with rouge And the worst of the worst, The most hated and cursed Is the one that we call Scrooge Un kind as any, And the wrath of many, This is that Ebenezer Scrooge OH! There goes Mr. Humbug, There goes mister Grim If they gave a prize for bein' mean The winner would be him Oh, Scroogey loves his money Cause he thinks it gives him power If he became a flavor, you can bet he would be sour (Even the vegetables don't like him!) There goes mister Skin flint There goes mister Greed The undisputed master of the under-handed deed He charges folks a fortune for his dark and drafty houses Us small folk live in misery Its even worse for mouses (Please sir, I want some cheese) He must be so lonely He must be so sad He goes to extremes to convince us he´sbad He´s really a victem of fear and of pride Look close and there must be a sweet man inside Nah! Uh-Uh! There goes mister outrage, There goes mister sneer He has no time for friends or fun His anger makes that clear Don't ask him for a favor cause his nastiness increases No crust of bread for those in need No cheeses for us mices (Gonzo/Charles Dickens: Scrooge liked the cold He was hard and sharp as a flint Secret and self contained As solitary as an oyster) There goes mister Heartless there goes mister Cruel He never gives He only takes He lets his hunger rule If being mean´s A way of life He´ll practice and Rehearse And all that work is payin' off Cause Scrooge is getting worse Everyday in everyway Scrooge is getting worse!
