Apologies to Dr. Suess…
I did not like “Dr. Suess’ Grinch Musical!”
(see, the name doesn’t even scan).
I did not like it on NBC.
I would not like it on any TV.
I tried to watch,
Indeed I sure did.
I wished I could snatch
Some fun from the morbid.
I did not like musical Grinch
He left such a great stench.
I did not like him on NBC.
I would not like him on any TV.
The Whos down in Whoville
Must’ve all downed a poo-pill.
How else to explain it,
This big pile of Who sh**?
I did not like narrator Max,
Stuff him in all the faux Santa sacks!
I did not like him on NBC.
I would not like him on any TV.
Who is to blame?
Who bears the shame
For this bad bastard goose?
Certainly not dead Doctor Seuss!
“You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch!”
Could’ve saved the whole show, right in the pinch.
I did not like it on NBC.
I would not like it on any TV.
Someone thought they should do it,
But they didn’t think through it.
No one can match Karloff.
This show should have been called off.
Stick with “How the Grinch Stole Christmas!”
It strikes something forever within us.
I’d like it on NBC.
I’d like it on EVERY TV!
