bah,the holidays
i hate this time of year
and you'll understand
after my story you hear
i did'nt do it
i tell you i was framed
but since that day
i have been blamed
they called me a thief
they told me i'd pay
for being the guy
who stole christmas day
i did'nt understand
for i'd always thought
you got a fair trial
before you were shot
before jury selection
deemed guilty as i could get
they'd have found me guilty
had we never met
i'd never do a crime
as heinous as that
i leave all that stuff
to the cat in the hat
for all these years
maligned in such stench
forever i'm now called
the evil mr. grinch
well listen to this
you tore up legal eagles
you don't possess the smarts
of either of my beagles
someone else did this
and if i only knew
i guarantee by new years
they would be through
you don't think i like lights
and singing christmas carols
you think i don't enjoy
drinking nog by the barrels
trimming trees is fun
i used to enjoy that
but can't anymore
thanks to some ditry rat
so as you all party
and bring in a new year
i speak only truth
really loud and clear
whoever you are
that did this to me
one new years very soon
your ass belongs to me
so if you're not awake
i won't give you pinch
i'll rob you as you sleep
for i am the evil mr. grinch
