Freezing Our Little Toes Off

(Can be sung to the tune of

Mele Kalikimaka)

Freezing our little toes off is the thing we say

on a cold, depressing winter day.

That's the exclamation that we boo hoo hoo

in a place that's dark and gray.

Here we know the weather will be such a fright.

The cars won't start by day. The pipes will burst at night.

Freezing our little toes off is another way

to say that wool socks won't do.

Freezing our hands and feet off is the thing we say

at the time a blizzard's come our way.

That's a declaration which should be a clue,

it's a place to visit - not stay.

Here we know extremities will get frostbite.

Then we will feel dismay, and things won't be all right.

Freezing our hands and feet off is another way

to say boots and mittens won't do.

Freezing our crazy heads off is the thing we say

on a cruel and icy winter day.

That's the dire warning that we give to you

'cause the chill's no holiday.

Here we know the firewood had better light.

If power goes away we will be dead by night.

Freezing our crazy heads off is another way

to say twenty blankets won't do.
