listen to me read it... (364k mp3)


I never know

Till I see the snow

It's sunny outside

And ten below


My boogers freeze

My red ears sting

It hurts to breathe

Or do anything


Too cold to think

And too damn bright

My eyes burn from

Reflected light


No shorts or jeans

With holes in the knees

Just cracking plastic

And gasline freeze


Too much light

Nowhere to go

Cause it's sunny outside

And ten below

It's sunny outside and

It's ten below.


Wind chill factor

Screams and Scratches

Once cigarette wasted

Twenty matches


You go to work

An hour late

Your body tried

To hibernate


Broke and stranded

Out of luck

The lock is frozen

The car door stuck


Gotta sit with a smoke

And a cuppa joe

Cause it's sunny outside

And ten below

It's sunny outside and

It's ten below.
