lyrics

Dickens:
Marley was dead, to begin with
The old man in his bed, scared stiff
A chill was in the air, a cold night
A rattle in the stair, something's not right

Marley:
Hello, old friend, I've come a long way
The road's not too kind to ghosts these days
You're headed straight to me without a second thought
I've come to let you know your time is short

You’ll have to take a trip tonight
So the darkness can be brought to light
To a season that you’ve grown to hate
But, Ebenezer, it’s not too late

Ebenezer:
What good has the season done me?
What good has it done this town?
Why should I care for the poor under me?
Why should I give up my life and my crown?
Marley:
You see this chain I wear old friend?
I made it link by link in the life I led
And now I'm bound to my deeds and their ends
And here lies a choice on which your life depends

You'll have to come and see it clear
Somewhere, sometime far from here
To a season that you've grown to hate
But Ebenezer

It’s not too late to start again
It’s not too late to turn around
If you call out there is a cure
Whoa, you’ve got to die to live again
And you will live again

Ebenezer:
What good is an open hand for taking?
What good is an open heart?
What loss could be better than gaining?
What could compel me to turn from this path?

Marley:
Listen, old friend, to what I say
Death’s not too kind to ghosts
