Tell Me

Every year the same reminders Of the things I've lost Absent friends and broken pledges Wrapped in freezing frost Why should I be bright and merry? Why should I? Would someone tell me? Tell me Tell me (Tell me) Cold bleak winters filled with sorrow Are all I've ever known Seasons greetings You can keep them Just leave me alone Why not join us? Toast the season Don't they know I have my reasons? Tell me Tell me Tell me Tell me Every year such joy and gladness Sparkling in their eyes Treat them tougher Make them suffer Bring them down to size All around me All so cheery I'm not happy So why should they be? Tell me Tell me Tell me (Ebenezer Scrooge) (Ebenezer Scrooge) (Ebenezer Scrooge) (Ebenezer Scrooge) (Ebenezer Scrooge) (Ebenezer Scrooge)
