Donald Trump:
Wake up, Scrooge, I'm about to take a Dickens of a dump

On this lonely, homely little miserable grump

I'm like the star on a Christmas tree, you're like the stump

I'm not known for my heart but you're still getting trumped

You remind me of my ex-wife in a bikini, cause you disgust me

Keep your TB from Tiny Timmy away from me, don't even touch me

I don't shake hands, I don't make fans, I ruin rappers faster than Scottish lands

Even Jay-Z knows what a pimp I am, I got my name on the front of the business, man!

My raps'll haunt you, make you think you're going insane

You're about to get whooped by three emcee's of the ethereal plane

So when the clock strikes, prepare to enter a world of Christmas pain

Cause I'm out, I got my own f***ing problems, call me 2 Chainz!

Ebenezer Scrooge:
How dare you disturb me when I'm napping in my chair

You're a crappy rap-spitting apparition, I ain't scared

Of this random phantom, haunt all you want, I don't care

I do not believe in ghosts and I don't believe that hair

J. P. Morgan:
Don't panic, Scrooge, but you're about to crash!

I'm J. P. Morgan, the Ghost of Rich Dudes Past!

Who's properly rocking the Monopoly mustache!

Yo, I own the railroad, I run these tracks!

You got dumped on a bench, now you're pissed at the world

You shoulda made like Sebastian, and kissed the girl!

Because your greed is the curse that's gonna tear you apart

What good is your purse if you're poor in your heart?

Ebenezer Scrooge:
Bah humbug, your raps don't unnerve me, they're atrocious

What frightens me the most is your gross ghost proboscis

Business and success, that's the life I've selected

So enough with your pictures from the past. I'm not affected!

Kanye West:
Well you're about to be right now

I'm the ghost of what's right now

Just take a lesson from Yeezy

You missing the point, Ebeneezy

There's more to life than your work, take it easy

Even I can make time for Azizy

Best put some friends on your wish list

Cause you don't know the spirit of Christmas

If you did then you would at this moment

Be sharing your money with some of the homeless!

Ebenezer Scrooge:
No! This isn't happening, oh, this is maddening agony, wait

Actually, harkening back to the dead Donald's lecture

I still am expecting a final specter!

The Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come:
Boo!

Ebenezer Scrooge:
[scream]

The Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come:
You're gonna die

No one to love you and no one to cry

Alone by youself on the bed of your death

With a stench of regret on your last dying breath

Cause you've chosen the path of a selfish man

With Tiny Tim's innocent blood on your hands

The penance you pay for the way you behave

Is written as plain as the name on this grave

Ebenezer Scrooge:
Are these the shadows of things that will be

Or things that may be only?

If I depart from my course can they change

Say it is thus with what you show me

I promise to mend my ways

A friend to all men is what I will become

It's Christmas! I haven't missed my chance to be different

God bless us every-

Announcer:
WHO WON?!

Trivia

 * This is the second Christmas battle done by ERB and the sixth holiday-themed battle overall.
 * Since ERB's every two weeks schedule beginning, this is the longest we have had to wait for both video and audio/tunecore thumbnail to come out.
 * This is the second battle where the suggestion comes from somewhere other than YouTube comments (this Wiki's chat, commented by Scrawland Scribblescratch and Wachowman).
 * This also marked the first time a suggestion was taken directly from a user of the wiki.
 * This the second battle that features kids, the first being Michael Jackson vs Elvis Presley with Bentley Green.
 * This is the first time two purely fictional characters (Scrooge and the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come) from the same work have rapped towards one another, though Adam and Eve are considered fictional by some. It is also the fourth time overall that two people known primarily known for being associated with one another have exchanged lines, after Barack Obama vs Mitt Romney, the aforementioned Adam vs Eve and Nikola Tesla vs Thomas Edison.
 * This is the second battle to censor the "f-word", the first being Mario Bros vs Wright Bros.
 * In Mario Bros vs Wright Bros the "f-word" was censored because Rhett and Link don't cuss in any of their videos. In this, however, one it was censored because Trump's show The Apprentice always censors out coarse language the way ERB did, therefore it is a cultural reference.
 * This is the third battle with five different backgrounds. The first two are Steve Jobs vs Bill Gates and Rasputin vs Stalin.
 * If you listen to this carefully, there is a pun at the end when the announcer says "Who won?". This finishes Scrooge's line " God bless everyone" by putting a pun on the word "Won" to finish the word "EveryONE".
 * The battle was released on the anniversary of the book "A Christmas Carol", the book the battle is based on.
 * This is the fourth battle to feature a mispelled title card, as Ebenezer Scrooge was spelled "Ebeneezer Scrooge", the others being Darth Vader vs Adolf Hitler (Adolph Hitler), Billy Mays vs Ben Franklin (Billy Mayes), and Captain Kirk vs Christopher Columbus (Christopher Colombus)
 * Dante told  TheSteelerNation2  on Twitter that the mispelled title card and battle name was intentional and was done to keep viewers on their toes and looking for subtle mistakes.
 * ​ ​The name of the battle was changed as of December 25th, 2013 to be accurate, but the title card and lyrics are still mispelled.


 * Behind Scrooge's window is Santa's background house mirrored (The North Pole).
 * If you look behind the background of Scrooge there is a clock which changes everytime a rapper or "ghost" for that matter comes in just like the book that the clocks strikes at 1:00, 2:00, and 3:00.
 * The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come used William Shakespeare's background (customized). Also, ERB told us that they were planning to do this.
 * The real Donald Trump tweeted "What's with this rap stuff with me and Ebenezer Scrooge?" with a link to the battle, meaning he noticed it.
 * One of Dante's hints (Gold vs Coal on a steam engine Bound 2 death) is the exact order in which the rappers rapped.
 * Gold vs Coal (Donald Trump vs Ebenezer Scrooge & Title), on a steam engine (J. P. Morgan), Bound 2 (Kanye West), Death (Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come).
 * This is the second battle to use more than one beat, the first being Rasputin vs Stalin. This is also the second battle to use 3 beats, the first also being Rasputin vs Stalin.
