lyrics

snowstorm is a simple word first used in 1771
it must have been a frightful storm the day it was spoken
its a compound like skyscraper looming up so high
baby its cold out wherever you're holed up i hope that you're all right
baby its cold out wherever you're holed up i hope that you're all right

there's a blizzard raging outside. It used to mean to get hit
over and over or even just once by gunshot or by fist
i never been shot but i know how it feels to want someone around
baby its cold out wherever you are i hope you're safe and sound

im a man who needs some definition
my meaning has become a little loose
come on over sweetness
save me from obsoleteness
baby all I need's a little use

washington the patriarch gave us the word ravine
he took it from the french even though there were already dozens of words that meant the same thing
he could have said gully or valley, he could have said fissure or flume
he could have said screw it, it's only New Jersey, Martha I'm coming home
I'm tired of freezing my rebel ass off, Martha I'm coming home.
