The Alice Band - January's Child lyrics

On the coldest night of the year I start to rethink hell Cos all you hear is a cruel wind blowin' Fire engine bells See this family had no heat So they built a bonfire in their living-room They thought they could keep it a secret But those flames caught on And soon the whole building went up And I saw one fireman turn to another and say "It's quite a blaze we've got here everyone's, warm for now" And the fire's burning the east side And the west is hunkering down And i'm in search of comfort And he is a loser Working in mid-town Oh, it's negative something degrees Oh, and i think the whole world may freeze It's been this low for a while January's Child It's the coldest night of the year And i've decided hell Is on 29th Street, yeah Well the car's jammed down 10th Avenue Cos the girls'll go on sale Just to get inside Hey Annie, you wanna ride? Well they say anything is possible For a twenty or a ten If your car has heat Hell is 29th Street And these few degrees are lonely And they cling to me for life Holding on to a dead man's blanket A lost dog's fur And a hooker's exposed thighs Oh, it hasn't been sunny for weeks Oh, the tears freeze on my cheeks It's been this low for a while January's Child Well he finds me on his steps outside And i'm half frozen in ice So he digs me up He drags me in And he cuts like a surgeon through my skin Into warm blood Lay's me down and gives me love When i tell him i wanna die That january boy laughs and says "Ok snow queen, here's a match why don't you try?" Oh, it's negative something degrees Oh, and I think the whole world may freeze It's been this low for a while January's Child Oh, It'll be alright in a while Says January's Child It's gonna it's gonna be alright It's gonna it's gonna be alright Alright, alright in a while Says January's Child
