The Adventure Lights

Acclaimed author Neil Gaiman performs a memorable dramatic reading from NYPL’s own rare copy of "A Christmas Carol," which includes edits and prompts Charles Dickens wrote in his own hand for his unique public readings 150 years ago. Dressed in full costume and joined by writer and BBC researcher Molly Oldfield, Gaiman performs the classic tale as its great author intended.

# Lyrics

Shirt and tied, as I take my ride, my life becomes my cell,
Pens and screens, and dirty canteens, are the staples of this hell,
Living through this ain't no bad life to do this, if it weren't for this one guy,
Who seems to take his inner hitler, and try to burn it my eyes,

And then he walks right over, on a day when I just don't care,
I taste my fear, as my blood boils clear, I promised myself that I won't be scared,
He grabs me the collar, and he pulls me to his face,
He tells me what hes gonna do, and I say "you will step away"

He looks me right in the eyes,
Now's the time to draw your line in the sand,
And I say "Back right up, get out of my way"
Back right up, or you will see,
Back right up, were done right here.

Back right up, get out of my way.
Back right up, we're done right here.
