Snow Charges
There's a patch ice shimmering under the skyOn the south corner of Bushwick, on the residential sideAnd I'm afraid I'll slip.Most days when it's cloudy and all nights I stay insideBut it's 2:30 on New Years' Day and outside it's looking brightAnd I could use some chips and a bottle of sodaFor my quest to rescue Zelda.Trying to be brave, I touched the puddle to my tongueAnd within a millisecond the bottom of my face went numbAnd no one on the street knew anything was wrong.So I tried to wave my arms to find that they were frozen tooAnd I tried to run away, my legs felt like they were stuck in clueAnd I started to hear a storm.Through my ears poured freezing rainAnd it froze my freezing brain.A handful of neighbors gathered underneath the awningof the laundromat 200 feet from the front door of my buildingAnd it smacked my like a pinballAnd it crushed me like a wrecking ballI was swallowed by a cold duvetAnd the kids are gonna have a snow day.Letras de cancionesI couldn't bear to find out how the story was gonna endSo I closed my eyes and went to sleep and no one found me dead'Cause everybody stayed inside 'til March.And a patch of flowers grew out of the concrete where I liedSome boy picked a dandelion to give to a girl he likedAnd she gave him a kiss that warmed his lonely heart.Now they hold each other tightAnd stay in on winter nights.
