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! (Oh!)
Merry Christmas! (Ooh!)
