Various Artists - Snowball lyrics

Tied this letter to a red balloon Flew this letter off across the roofs Along with all the plans I made Ooh... Over crippled cranes and twisted steel Deadlines overgrown and missing wheels A "told you so" communique Ooh... Told you so Told you so The biggest of mistakes can be forgiven But a snowball of little white lies will crush your house From the razor wire, an oily rag And it's what you make the nation's flag Pray you never sleep again Ooh... Oh, and laughable the crying shame Oh, the mark I made against your name I hope this finds you less than sane Ooh... Told you so Told you so For you to think that history's rewritten You'd have to think the dead will be forgotten Your snowball of little white lies has crushed our house When the pills you take No longer help you Fading in your garden chair A hundred and two You'll see the light dim You'll lose the birdsong You'll hear the voices you've been holding off for so long Buzzing 'round you And then a hurricane A hundred thousand souls And every one in pain They'll come and visit you We'll come and visit you (Never sleep again)
