Scrooge, You have taken over the world
Seems people want to pick aparteverything good
I've been there, I'm done with thatpart
Get rid of what should have been
Except what is and take a fresh start

How many will you blame for the job youhate?
How many will you blame for the crappyfood you ate?
How many will you blame for the lack ofexercise to date?
How many will you blame for the crappygoods you charged?
How many will you blame for....
How many will you blame for?
How many will you blame for..you fillin the blank(s).
Get off your high horse. You know yourways
It's up to you to change
Always complaining things are toughernow than they used to be
All because you chose to be lame,
It's something you pretend not to see

Get over the past and what's been doneto you
You may never be able to forget,
Certainly don't want to live in regret
Over those that reaped the suffering
Cause you couldn't let something go
No one person can fix the world
All it takes is an abundance of littlegirls and
Little boys, who are provided parents
That will teach them right from wrong
Not put them in the middle
Always preach love and self respect
That's where the trouble ends

Make a decision to not be defeated
No ones place to remove rights or freedom
Take care of your world and be good to those you love
Those that matter will have your back
They'll be there when push comes to shove

So..
The next time someone tries to freezemy glow
I'll take the few extra seconds to killthem with kindness
Put their grumpy ora on death row

When someone decides to put on a suitof politics
When someone speaks bullets and swords
Better to pretend they're puppets,
In this lifetime positivity will win over sin
