The Fox in the Snow Girl in the snow, where will you go, to find someone that will do? To tell someone all the truth before it kills you They listen to your crazy laugh before you hang a right and disappear from sight What do they know anyway?

You're going up, you're going down, you're going nowhere It's not as if they're paying you It's not as if it's fun At least not anymore When your legs are black and blue, it's time to take a break When your legs are black and blue, it's time to take a holiday Kid in the snow, way to go It only happens once a year It only happens once a lifetime Make the most of it Second just to being born Second to dying too What else could you do?

I saw a skeleton banging his head on a tombstone in the cemetary The sun was out It was weird, I gotta say What did you do today? I asked a skeleton, I said "Hey why are you banging your head in that way, on a tombstone in the cemetary on such a lovely day?"
