Dean Martin gives a Scroogian perspective on Christmas in “Christmas Blues.”

“I’ve done my window shopping
There’s not a store I’ve missed
But what’s the use of stopping
When there’s no one on your list
You’ll know the way I’m feeling
When you love and you lose
I guess I’ve got the Christmas blues…”

The lyrics would definitely piss of Bob Cratchit,  but would bring joy to Scrooge’s life.  Scrooge probably listened to this song before he met Tiny Tim.
