歌詞: Soundtrack Artists. Nothing To Do With Me (Part 1).

Scrooge:
if the poor have to eat,
let them beg upon the street
or apply at the workhouse door.
if they refuse to earn,
then let them learn
what a prison's for.

i abhor how they whine,
how they want whatever's mine!
why should i give a thing for free?
let them beg til they're blue,
it has nothing to do with me!
(spoken)i say let them die, and decrease the surplus population! good day.

Cratchit:
mister scrooge, im sorry,
but sir might i go?
might you pay me early
just this once?

Scrooge:
(spoken)picking a man's pocket every 25th of December! bah

Cratchit:
my tiny tim is ill sir,
youngest son, you know.
wife and children need me
just this once.

Scrooge:
people wanting this,
people wanting that,
spreading bloody cheer!

Cratchit:
(spoken)it's only once a year

Scrooge:
plucking at your sleeve,
holding out your hat,
singing in your ear!

Cratchit:
(spoken)oh, im quite sorry, sir. i didn't mean to-

Scrooge:
taking off the day,
asking for their pay...

Cratchit:
(spoken)only once a year!

Scrooge:
well, you can take Christmas
and stuff it with bread!
and if that isn't perfectly clear
i do not need to know
of a family or their woe
i suggest tiny tim drink tea.

Cratchit:
(spoken)he's only six!

Scrooge:
give him tea! give him stew!

it has nothing to do with me.

(scrooge reluctantly gives him his paycheck)


(on his way home, he runs into Fred)

Fred:
come to christmas dinner,
we're inviting you.
be with family, uncle,
just this once

Scrooge:
(spoken)no, thank you.

Fred:
you'd enjoy it uncle.
we'd enjoy it too.
you'd meet sally, uncle
just this once.

Scrooge:
people taking wives,
living little lives,
cozier than mice!

Fred:
(spoken)we want nothing from you.

Scrooge:
marrying for love,
push will come to shove,
you'll be thinking twice!

Fred:
(spoken)i will not get angry, uncle.

Scrooge:
asking me to dine,
breaking open wine,
taking no advice.

Fred:
(spoken)good god!

Scrooge:
well, you can take christmas,
and marraige as well,
and to hell with your trees and your rice!
i will not fill my plate,
socialize or celebrate
with a fool and his family.

Fred:
(spoken)well!

Scrooge:
let your love see you through,
it has nothing to do with me!

(continues arguing with fred)
