about

Cindy Lawson is releasing a holiday two-song EP that brings to mind not only visions of sugarplums dancing in your head but exuberant rocking around that 'ol Christmas tree. Both of these songs would be a welcome addition to your holiday song library with the original song "Hey Santa" and a cover of The Orchids' 1964 hit "Mr. Scrooge". Channeling her inner Darlene Love, Cindy and band bring a modern take to the traditional 60's pop reworking of holiday songs in "Hey Santa" and pleads with dear old Saint Nick to bring some love and peace to the world, while "Mr. Scrooge" is a sweet and saucy message to a lover who's stingy with their kisses. Released digitally by Rum Bar records for the 2022 holiday season and also as a free download with purchase of Beebe Gallini's holiday flexidisc single "You Ain't Getting Nothin'" b/w "That's what Christmas Means to Me". 

lyrics

DON’T BE LIKE MR. SCROOGE
DON’T BE LIKE MR. SCROOGE TO ME

YOU’RE SO STINGY WITH YOUR KISSES
WHY DO I WASTE MY TIME?
YOU’RE HOLDING LIKE A MISER ALL YOUR RICHES
YOU KNOW IT’S A CRIME

DON’T BE LIKE MR. SCROOGE
DON’T BE LIKE MR. SCROOGE TO ME

YOU’RE SO TIGHT WITH ALL YOUR LOVIN
DON’T GIVE A THING AWAY
WHAT DO YOU THINK THAT YOU ARE DOING?
SAVING IT FOR A RAINY DAY?

DON’T BE LIKE MR. SCROOGE
DON’T BE LIKE MR. SCROOGE TO ME

BRIDGE;
MR. SCROOGE WAS A GUY THEY ALL HATED
FULL OF MISERY
TIL ONE DAY HE SAW A VISION
AND IT CHANGED HIM ETERNALLY

TAKE A TIP FROM EBENEZER
LET HIM BE YOUR GUIDE
GIVE ME ALL YOUR LOVE AND KISSES
AND WE’LL BE SIDE BY SIDE

PLEASE BE LIKE MR. SCROOGE
PLEASE BE LIKE MR. SCROOGE TO ME

MR. SCROOGE WAS A GUY THEY ALL HATED
FULL OF MISERY
TIL ONE DAY HE SAW A VISION
AND IT CHANGED HIM ETERNALLY

TAKE A TIP FROM EBENEZER
LET HIM BE YOUR GUIDE
GIVE ME ALL YOUR LOVE AND KISSES
AND WE’LL BE SIDE BY SIDE
