You're a mean one, Mister Grinch
You really are a heel
You're as cuddly as cactus
You're as charming as an eel
Mister Gr - i - nch
You're a bad banana with a
greasy black peel
(Discordant riffs)

You're a monster, Mister Grinch
Your heart's an empty hole
Your brain is full of spiders
You've got garlic in your soul
Mister Gr - i - nch
I wouldn’t touch you with a
Thirty-nine and a half foot pole
(Discordant riffs)

You're a vile one, Mister Grinch
You have termites in your smile
You have all the tender sweetness of
A seasick crocodile
Mister Gr - i - nch
Given the choice between the two of you
I'd take the seasick crocodile
(Discordant riffs)

You're a rotter, Mister Grinch
You're the king of sinful sots
Your heart's a dead tomato splotched
With moldy purple spots
Mister Gr - i - nch
You're a three-decker
sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich
With arsenic sauce
(Discordant riffs)

You nauseate me, Mister Grinch,
With a nauseous super "naus"
You're a crooked jerky jockey
and you drive a crooked horse
Mister Gr - i – nch
Your soul is an appalling dump-heap,
N.C.
Mangled-up and tangled-up knots
(Discordant riffs)

You're a foul one, Mister Grinch
You're a nasty-wasty skunk
Your heart is full of unwashed socks
Your soul is full of gunk
Mister Gr - i - nch
The three words that best describe you
N.C.
Stink! , stank! , stunk!
