Lyrics
<lyrics> It's cold outside Seven months of suicide I've been in Suspended animation Just like Walt Disney
My only love Asks for me to wait on her I waited Waited but she didn't care Just like Walt Disney I'm just thawing out
My fingertips and toes are frozen to the bone Give me an hour before you throw me in the cold
Ring ring ring Now I hear the phone singing Calling Me Telling me to start freezing Just like Walt Disney, yeah I'm a block of ice
My fingertips and toes are frozen to the bone Give me an hour before you throw me in the cold Give me an hour before you pick me up and throw me 'cross the sea Why don't you please
Just like Walt Disney </lyrics>
