Last night I watched the first snow come floating down And land on the streets of this sleepy town Well, I got out my mitts and I got out my hat Ain't it funny how the season change just like that Then I watched the neighbors' kids try to lick the flakes All the pa**ing cars stopped to check their brakes And pretty soon we'll be singing Christmas songs Like "I wish I had a river that I could skate away on" And then I watched the rooftops change from black to white All the cats and dogs went home for the night
And the birds left town 'bout a month ago Except for the ones that are built for snow And then I watched the trees shiver by the light of the moon And I didn't feel lonely but I know I will soon And any day now I won't say one good thing About the cold and the snow and I'll complain until spring But last night I watched the first snow come floating down And land on the streets of this sleepy town I got out my mitts and I got out my hat Ain't it funny how the season change just like that
