Bah Humbug

I met a man named Ebenezer, south of Camden High With calloused hands, stood at a slant and no one dared walk by His heart was hard and sharp as flint, his door was lined with locks As lonesome as an oyster and he was greedy as a fox He was a penny-pinching, fist-clenching, sick and stingy grouch Don't ask him about Christmas, he'll growl no way, no how When his crooked frown appalled the town, so I too stayed away But one night I got turned around and heard a man behind me say Bah humbug, bah humbug, bah humbug That was all he said Bah humbug, bah humbug, bah humbug Yeah, yeah, come on Well, a ghostly figure touched his sleeve and time flipped upside down He saw a boy, so innocent, unlike the man he is now (unlike the man he is now) Then a second ghost showed him a home, a family full of love All he heard was friendly laughter, not a-one of 'em was singing Bah humbug, bah humbug, bah humbug That was all he said Then a third ghost with a black cloak He showed him what can happen when we reap what we sow All he heard was crickets chirpin', as he laid to rest While the town was busy smirkin', saying, "It's for the best" They were singing Bah humbug, bah humbug, bah humbug (That was all they said), that was all they said Humbug, bah humbug, bah humbug Yeah! He said, "Oh, no, look what I've done Is it too late to change my ways?" Then he snapped back to present day Bah hum, bah hum, bah hum, bah humbug That Ebenezer Scrooge Bah humbug! Bah humbug! Bah humbug! (Yeah) Woo! Well, it's Christmas morning (Christmas morning) It's a brand-new day (it's a brand-new day) He's thinkin' I'm done (I'm done), I'm done (I'm done) Singing that a-bah humbug From here on out, I'm spreading love! I'm singin' I'm done (I'm done!), I'm done (I'm done) Singin' that a-bah hum bug! Merry Christmas (Merry Christmas!) Merry Christmas everyone (Merry, Merry Christmas) No more mumblin', grumblin', grumblin' No more bah humbug Merry Christmas (Merry Christmas) Merry Christmas (Merry Christmas) No more mumblin', no more grumblin' No more (no more grumblin'), fissy fussin' (no more grumblin') No more (fissy fussin', no more), oh Bah, hum, bug Bah humbug Merry Christmas!
