Christmas Day
[Scrooge]
I'm in a bed
Am I dead?
I wasn't sure if I'd wake up

Thought it was the end
Thank you, my friend
Thank you spirits, thank you Jacob

Jake I'd kiss you if I could
The night is over, knock on wood
It feels so effin' good to be alive

I feel like a baby boy
I've never felt so drunk with joy
I've never felt such joy to still have time

[Narrator]
As Scrooge laughs the kind of laugh
That can wash away years of sadness
A huge laugh, an impressive laugh
For someone so out of practice

[Scrooge]
Hey, boy! On the street!
[Little Boy]
Mister, what you want with me?

[Scrooge]
Please don't run away
Just tell me what's today?

[Little Boy]
What's today?
Why, it's Christmas Day!
Christmas Day!

[Scrooge and Little Boy]
For hеaven's sake, it's Christmas Day!
Christmas Day!

[Scrooge]
I'm not too late!
Hеy!

Here's some cash, run to the shop
And buy the best looking turkey they got
The biggest and the fattest
And send it to Bob Cratchit!

[Little Boy]
I can't carry that, it's fucking huge!
[Scrooge]
Good point
Here's more cash, to cab it
Just don't say that it's from Scrooge

[Little Boy and Scrooge]
Let's make Bob's day
On Christmas Day!

[Little Boy]
Woohoo!

[Scrooge]
(laughs)

[Narrator]
So Scrooge is shaving
But he can't stop shaking
He cuts his face in 80 places

But he doesn't mind it
He's too excited
Running outside to see the neighbors' faces

Shouting "Merry Christmas" to everyone
And getting some funny looks from some
And just by chance, he sees the donation men
[Scrooge]
My good sir, hope I'm not too late
Sorry I was an ingrate yesterday
But I wanna donate today if I still can

[Narrator]
And Scrooge gives such a massive gift
It includes years and years of backpay

[Narrator and Charity Collector #2]
A huge gift
Such a generous gift
That it very nearly makes the man faint

[Scrooge]
Thank you sir, please visit me

[Charity Collector #2]
Huh, will do Scrooge
Certainly

[Scrooge]
So happy to have met you
But I must run now to my nephew's
For Christmas Day
Christmas Day
There's a party at his place
So I can't delay

[Scrooge and Charity Collector #2]
Christmas Day
Christmas Day

[Charity Collector #2]
Okay! (laughs)

[Narrator]
Scrooge gets to Fred's place and stands outside the door
Suddenly much more nervous than before
When Fred opens the door
Scrooge wants to run away
Not sure what to say

[Scrooge]
It's your uncle Scrooge
I've been a fool
And don't wanna live as a stranger to you
Can you forgive
A dumb, old man?

[Fred]
Listen man
Of course I can

Christmas Electricity
Brought you here to me today
Christmas Electricity
Is here

[Scrooge]
I think you're right!

[Ensemble]
Christmas Electricity
Christmas Electricity
Christmas Electricity
All night

[Narrator]
Scrooge and Fred and everyone
Party into the night
Scrooge never had so much fun
In his entire life

[Ensemble]
Christmas Electricity
Christmas Electricity

[Narrator]
The next morning Scrooge hurries
To get to work early

[Ensemble]
Christmas Electricity
Christmas Electricity

[Narrator]
He hides the grin from his face
When Bob comes in late

[Scrooge]
So let me get this straight
You skip work, then come in late?
Why don't you just rob me, Bobby?
Or I'll give you a raise

[Bob Cratchit (spoken)]
Wait, what?

[Scrooge]
A raise, Bob
I said a raise

[Bob Cratchit]
Sir are you okay?

[Scrooge]
Never better

[Bob Cratchit]
You're being crazy

[Scrooge]
No Bob, you're priceless
Priceless
Merry Christmas

[Ensemble]
Priceless

[Jacob Marley]
Scrooge was better than his word
He did it all and then some

[Ensemble]
Priceless

[Belle and Young Scrooge]
Some folks laughed and
Called it absurd
But Scrooge just laughed along with them

[Ensemble]
Priceless

[Bob and Emily Cratchit]
Scrooge became
A better man

[Bob Cratchit, Emily Cratchit, and Tiny Tim]
And like a second dad
To Tiny Tim

[Ghost of Christmas Past, Ghost of Christmas Present, and Ghost of Christmas Future]
So in our own past, present and future
We would do well to remember him

[Scrooge]
So when you're stuck
Saying "Bah Humbug"
When you're shutting life out
Think of how this Scrooge turned things around

[Ensemble]
The meanest man there ever was
Became the merriest man you ever found
The loveliest
The chummiest
Most generous
Benevolent
The nicest neighbor
The smile-maker
The friendliest senior
The best demeanor
No one's sweeter than Ebenezer
Scrooge
