Muppet Christmas Carol - Marley And Marley

I figured I would put the lyrics on here.
I know how much I like to sing along.




We're Marley and Marley,
Averious and greed.
We took advantage of the poor,
Just ignored the needy
We specialized in causing pain,
Spreading fear and doubt.
nd if you could not pay the rent,
we simply threw you out.

There was the year we evicted the entire orphanage.
I remember the little tykes all standing in the snow bank.
With their little frost-bitten teddy bears.

We're Marley and Marley,
Our hearts were painted black.
We should have known our evil deeds would put us both in shackles.
Captive, bound, we're double-ironed,
Exhausted by the wait.
As freedom comes from giving love,
So, prison comes with hate.

We're Marley and Marley, Whooooooa.
We're Marley and Marley, Whooooooa.

But my friends, you were not unfeeling towards your fellow men.
True, there was something about mankind we loved.
I think it was there money.

Doomed, Scrooge! You're doomed for all time.
Your future is a horror story, written by your crime.
Your chains are forged, by what you say and do.
So, have your fun when life is done, a nightmare waits for you.

Why these terrible chains?
Oooooh, the chains.
We forged these chains in life by our acts of greed. You wear such a chain yourself.
Humbug, speak comfort to me friends.
Comfort, aaahhhh.

You will be haunted by three spirits,
Haunted? I've already had enough of that.
Without these visits you can not hope to avoid the past we tred.
Expect the first ghost tonight, when the bell tolls 1.
Can't I meet them all at once and get it over with?
When the bell tolls one...

We're Marley and Marley, Whoooooa.
We're Marley and Marley, Whoooooa.
We're Marley and Marley, Whoooooa.
Change!

I remember being five years old and seeing this in theaters when this came out. When this scene came on, I ran out of the theater. Dad tried making me feel better by telling me that Statler and Waldorf were Kermit's friends, which certainly didn't help matters...

[Peter Smith]

Statler and Waldorf are my favorite characters from the Muppets, so it's kind of sad to see this happen to them.

[Sami Dark]

This scene terrified me as a little kid. And I loved it.

[GeorgieLizBlossom]

[Lydia Bucey]

Dispite the fact this is from the muppets, I love the song.

[Shingalana1]

These guys and the ghost of Christmas Yet To Come terrified me as a kid.
