The Grinch!
Here's a Christmas Classic that has been a staple of childhood for many years. Enjoy!
Lyrics:
You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch. You really are a heel. You're as cuddly as a cactus, You're as charming as an eel. Mr. Grinch.
You're a bad banana With a greasy black peel.
You're a monster, Mr. Grinch. Your heart's an empty hole. Your brain is full of spiders, You've got garlic in your soul. Mr. Grinch.
I wouldn't touch you, with a thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole.
You're a vile one, Mr. Grinch. You have termites in your smile. You have all the tender sweetness Of a seasick crocodile. Mr. Grinch.
Given the choice between the two of you I'd take the seasick crockodile.
You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch. You're a nasty, wasty skunk. Your heart is full of unwashed socks Your soul is full of gunk. Mr. Grinch.
The three words that best describe you, are, and I quote: "Stink. Stank. Stunk."
You're a rotter, Mr. Grinch. You're the king of sinful sots. Your heart's a dead tomato splot With moldy purple spots, Mr. Grinch.
Your soul is an apalling dump heap overflowing with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable, Mangled up in tangled up knots.
You nauseate me, Mr. Grinch. With a nauseaus super-naus. You're a crooked jerky jockey And you drive a crooked horse. Mr. Grinch.
You're a three decker saurkraut and toadstool sandwich With arsenic sauce.

Hahaha Rilakkuma is so cute! This Rilakkuma cosplay cap is one of Rilakkuma blockbusters on top of the fact that its USB toy, plushes, mug cups and body pillows, etc. are being recently bought as gifts.
I know, adorable right? Despite its popularity, Amazon Danbo figures are always in limited production therefore carries a scarcity value. The market price is hence so high but people still buy those a lot as well as its MINI ver.
