It’s officially winter now. Here’s a song I’ve been hearing a lot…
Sleigh bells ring, are you listening?
If I’m hearing this song, I’m already listening to a lot of Christmas music, so I’d say yes.
In the lane snow is glistening
I wish. Supposed to get up to 50 degrees this week.
A beautiful sight we’re happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland.
Snow walking is better than regular walking.
Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is the new bird
You were having trouble finding a rhyme there, weren’t you.
They sing a love song as we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland
Stalker birds? Or do they think they’re in a Disney movie?
In the meadow we can build a snowman
Awesome.
And pretend that he is Parson Brown
Why?
He’ll say “Are you married?” We’ll say “No, man.
But you can do the job while you’re in town.”
Now there’s a roundabout marriage proposal.
Later on, we’ll conspire
No more conspiracy theories. Snopes has enough to debunk as it is.
As we dream by the fire
Too cold to dream outside?
To face unafraid the plans that we made
Walking in a winter wonderland
Try not to be scared that you just agreed to be legally bound to spend a lot more time together.
In the meadow we can build a snowman
What are you locking yourselves into now?
And pretend that he’s a circus clown.
Tonight, the time by the fire will be less dreaming and more “can’t sleep, snow clown’ll eat me”.
We’ll have lots of fun with Mr. Snowman
Until the other kiddies knock him down (come around).
“Other” kiddies? Ah, given the whole getting married thing earlier on I figured you were older. Whatever the case for whichever lyrics, these other kids seem to be saving you from the evil clown snowman.
When it snows ain’t it thrilling
Yes! Yes, it is.
Though your nose gets chilling
This cold nose thing is reminding me of the first couple lines of The Christmas Song. Almost expecting a culturally insensitive reference to-
We’ll frolic and play the Eskimo way
That’s racist.
Walking in a winter wonderland.
Maybe just stay inside. You’re getting delirious.
