Scrooge

Lyrics

[GEORGE THE JANITOR]: When a cold wind blows it chills you Chills you to the bone [FEMALE WHATNOT] But there's nothing in nature that freezes your heart Like years of bein' alone [PIG] It paints you with indifference Like a lady paints with rouge [BLUE FRACKLE] And the worst of the worst [ARETHA] The most hated and cursed [BLUE FRACKLE] Is the one that we call Scrooge (yeah) [INKSPOT] Unkind as any [PORCUPINE] And the wrath of many [INKSPOT] This is Ebenezer Scrooge [ALL] Oh! There goes Mr. Humbug There goes Mr. Grim If they gave a prize for bein' mean The winner would be him [FARM ANIMALS] Old Scrooge he loves his money Cause he thinks it gives him power [SINGING FOOD] If he became a flavor, you can bet he would be sour (Yuck!) [PIGEONS] There goes Mr. Skinflint There goes Mr. Greed [CATS] The undisputed master of the underhanded deed [MURRAY THE MINSTREL, BEGOONY, MUDWELL, OTHERS] He charges folks a fortune for his dark and drafty houses [MURRAY THE MINSTREL, BEGOONY, MUDWELL] As poor folk live in misery [MOUSE] It's even worse for mouses [Spoken] Please sir, I want some cheese [FEMALE CAROLERS] He must be so lonely He must be so sad He goes to extremes to convince us he's bad He's really a victim of fear and of pride Look close and there must be a sweet man inside... (Spoken) Nah! [RAT, spoken] Uh-Uh! [ALL] There goes Mr. Outrage There goes Mr. Sneer [PUPPETEER] He has no time for friends or fun [CROCODILE] His anger makes that clear [HORSE] Don't ask him for a favor cause his nastiness increases [MR. BITTES] No crust of bread for those in need [MICE] No cheeses for us meeces [ALL] There goes Mr. Heartless There goes Mr. Cruel [MUPPETS] He never gives He only takes He lets his hunger rule [OTHER MUPPETS] If being mean's a way of life You practice and rehearse [PIG] Then all that work is payin' off [PIG & PINK FRACKLE] Cause Scrooge is getting worse [ALL] Every day, in every way Scrooge is getting worse
