[Verse 1]
You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch
You really are a heel
You’re as cuddly as a cactus, you’re as charming as an eel, Mr. Grinch
You’re a bad banana with a greasy black peel

[Verse 2]
You’re a monster, Mr. Grinch
Your heart‘s an empty hole
Your brain is full of spiders, you’ve got garlic in your soul, Mr. Grinch
I wouldn’t touch you with a thirty-nine-and-a-half-foot pole
[Verse 3]
You’re a vile one, Mr. Grinch
You have termites in your smile
You have all the tender sweetness of a seasick crocodile, Mr. Grinch
Given a choice between the two of you
I’d take the seasick crocodile

[Verse 4]
You’re a foul one, Mr. Grinch
You’re a nasty-wasty skunk
Your heart is full of unwashed socks, your soul is full of gunk, Mr. Grinch
The three words that best describe you are as follows and I quote, “Stink, stank, stunk”

[Verse 5]
You’re a rotter, Mr. Grinch
You’re the king of sinful sots
Your heart’s a dead tomato splotched with moldy purple spots, Mr. Grinch
Your soul is an appalling dump heap overflowing with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable
Mangled up in tangled up knots

[Verse 6]
You nauseate me, Mr. Grinch
With a nauseous super “naus”
You’re a crooked jerky jockey and you drive a crooked hoss, Mr. Grinch
You’re a three-decker sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich

With arsenic sauce
