Christmas Carol, A movie - Marley's Visitation lyrics
rate me<br>
It is required of every man<br>
That his spirit travel far<br>
Lending help to those he can<br>
No matter who they are<br>
But if you don't go forth in life<br>
Spreading joy and easing pain<br>
Your spirit will go forth in death<br>
And you shall wear a chain.<br>
<br>
These were coins I hoarded for a rainy day<br>
Now with every jingle I'm distressed<br>
Locks and keys that helped me keep the poor away<br>
That's what put these locks and keys around my waist.<br>
<br>
Link by link<br>
My chain was getting longer<br>
Link by Link<br>
I should've heard it clink<br>
Link by link<br>
Each year a little stronger<br>
Link by link by horrifying link!<br>
<br>
Stacking up my silver and my bits of gold<br>
Filling up my vault when day was done<br>
Well, vaults are made of lead and cash is very cold<br>
And around your neck they weigh a bloody ton!<br>
<br>
Link by link<br>
You're on the brink<br>
It's written here<br>
In blood-red ink<br>
Unlock your heart<br>
It's not too late<br>
Or you'll be dragging something more than twice this weight...<br>
<br>
Ebenezer Scrooge...<br>
You will be visited by three ghosts<br>
When the clock strikes one<br>
The Ghost of Christmas Past<br>
When the clock strikes two<br>
The Ghost of Christmas Present<br>
When the clock strikes three<br>
The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Be<br>
Three ghosts who yet may stop you ending up like me...<br>
<br>
These are spirits of men who were once like you<br>
Dragging chains of all that we acquired<br>
All the good in life is now too late to do<br>
Not to mention this can really make you tired!<br>
<br>
Link by link<br>
Your chain is in the making<br>
Link by link<br>
No way to make it shrink<br>
Link by link<br>
Just listen to it shaking<br>
Link by link by horrifying...!<br>
<br>
Link by link by<br>
Link by link by<br>
Link by link by<br>
Link by link<br>
Your life must be corrected<br>
Link by link<br>
And sooner than you think<br>
Link by link<br>
Or you shall be connected<br>
Link by link by horrifying link!!!<br>
<br>
