My little boy with smiling face and dancing eyes
|
Come bobbing down the steps on Christmas morn
|
And as he gaily opened up his Santa Claus
|
I wish that darling child had never been born
|
Outside the window lay the deadly fallen snow and on my lap the morning headlines lay
|
As he tried to find the footprints Rudolph left it was all that I could do to say
|
No playing in the snow today son no snow ice cream at all today
|
No snowman making no sleding or no skating no no playing in the snow today
|
|
He looked up at me with the tear in each blue eye
|
And when he asked me why I nearly died
|
I said some things are hard to explain then I picked him up and kissed his little eyes
|
In somewhere way up in a tower cold and grey power hungry men insainly play
|
In satanic style and laughter while ten million parents sadly say
|
No playing in the snow today...
