Christmas in Belgium was different
Than the ones spent in L.A.
The Christmas I got no presents
Still me and my brother played
Near the ocean makin' the snow man
On his face we were makin' a smile
Cuz just like a daddy
The snow man had style
[Chorus:]
Snow man, snow man
Another Christmas gone
I got a chess game this time
A bishop takes the pawn
Sometimes I wanna go back where
The ocean swallows the shore
I could still see him smiling
When my snow man is no more, no more
Winter seldom passing
Where the memory doesn't sway
2 the smell of a Christmas dinner
Shared the family way (Shared in the family way)
Everything seems so perfect
That nothing would dare go wrong
But tears come with the summer
So long, so long (So long)
[Chorus]
Snow man
I look at my hands and I wonder
Will they ever make anyone smile
The way the snow man made me
[Chorus]
A bump is like a friendly letter
We are likely to enjoy a night together
Everybody is over here
Come on over don't be queer
Before I kill it tell me something
Why did you hide your plastic money
And this thing you like to sing
Ahh! Ah doomi lama deema lama doomi ahh doomi ahh-ma, doomi lama deema lama doomi ahh dooie...
It isn't even winter but I'm freezing, freezing,
This sort of feeling isn't pleasing,
And what I want to know, man,
why, oh why,
Does she treat me like a snowman?
Ahhh!
It isn't even winter but I'm freezing, freezing,
This sort of feeling isn't pleasing,
And what I want to know, man,
why, oh why,
Does she treat me like a snowman?
Ahhh!
She's been building me,
Up quite steadily,
Seems like I've been here years and years and years and years;
I wait patiently,
Froze in history,
All ice-water is tears and tears and tears and tears;
She treats me far too frosty,
This hanging on has cost me dear.
Hey!!!
Ah doomi lama deema lama doomi ahh doomi ahh-ma, doomi lama deema lama doomi ahh dooie...
It isn't even winter but I'm shivering, shivering,
Waiting for the love that's not delivering,
What I want to know, man,
Why oh why,
Does she treat me like a snowman?
Ahhh!
It isn't even winter but I'm shivering, shivering,
Waiting for the love that's not delivering,
What I want to know, man,
Why oh why,
Does she treat me like a snowman?
Ahhh!
She's been building me,
Up quite steadily,
Seems like I've been here years and years and years and years;
I wait patiently,
Froze in history,
All ice-water is tears and tears and tears and tears;
She treats me far too frosty,
This hanging on has cost me...
It seems you would say I was too soft-hearted,
If you made a dunce-cap I'd done it!
People will always be tempted to wipe their feet,
On anything with 'welcome' written on it.
Owwww!
It isn't even winter but I'm freezing, freezing,
And this sort of feeling isn't pleasing,
And what I want to know, man,
Why, oh why,
Does she treat me like a snowman?
Haaa!
It isn't even winter but I'm shivering, shivering,
Waiting for the love that's not delivering,
And what I want to know,
Why oh why,
Does she treat me like a snowman?
Haaa!
Why oh why,
Does she treat me,
Why oh why,
Does she treat me, does she treat me,
Why oh why,
Does she treat me like a snowman?
Why oh why,
Just like a snowman.
Made of snow, I don't know
How I fit in
To and fro, people go
I stand and grin
Way to go, even though
I can't begin
Made of snow, I don't know
How I fit in
Ever cold, love untold
I don't belong
Have and hold, so untold
I think they're wrong
Heart of gold, grownin' old
Just like the song
Ever cold, love untold
I don't belong
Button eyes, lullabys,
I melt away
Criticized, compromised
White turns to grey
I'm paralyzed, otherwise
I'd leave today
Button eyes, lullabys,
I melt away
Made of snow, I don't know
How I fit in
Ever cold, love untold
I don't fit in
Button eyes, lullabys,
I don't fit in
Made of snow, I don't know
Made of Snow, I don't know how I fit in.
To and Fro, people go, I stand and grin.
Way to go, even though I can't begin.
Made of Snow, I don't know how I fit in.
Ever Cold, Love untold, I don't belong
Have and hold, so I'm told, I think they're wrong.
Heart of Gold, Growin' old, just like a song,
Ever Cold, love untold, I don't belong.
Button eyes, lullabies, I melt away
Criticized, Compromised, White turns to gray.
I'm paralyzed, otherwise, I'd leave today.
Button eyes, lullabies, I melt away.
Made of Snow, I don't know how I fit in.
Ever Cold, Love untold, I don't fit in.
Button Eyes, lullabies, I don't fit in.
Pick me up
Are you holding, man
Up all night
Please don't melt
Falling down
Bump me up
Time to hit the town
God save the Snowman
His teeth are falling out,
His head is in the clouds
His nose is on the ground
God save the Snowman
Jump my heart
Because I'm coming down
Save my life
Help him get
The carrot from his mind
Falling down, not being round
The flakes go up, not hit the ground
Falling down, not being round
Toast the day to winter's clown
won't need a broom to help him now.
Get it up
Wish I could
Get a life
Not this time
Gotta hit the town
Do you believe that you're dead when you die
Or do you believe in a soul
You have the power to mess with their minds
You've got them under control
Everybody wants a piece of you
To take them higher than they ever were on the ground
(All I wanna say is)
Cinnamon, Cinnamon
Don't let them down
Cinnamon, Cinnamon
Don't let them down
Nobody sees that you smile when you lie
You'll take that mask to your grave
You know what you're doing
God knows you're not blind
You just don't want to be saved
Line 'em up and knock 'em down
You've taken everything and still keep coming around
Cinnamon, Cinnamon
Don't let them down
Cinnamon, Cinnamon
Don't let them down
You have the power to mess with their lives
They're under your control
Everybody wants a piece of you
To take them higher than they ever were on the ground
Cinnamon, Cinnamon
Don't let them down
Cinnamon, Cinnamon
Don't let them down...
Pick me up
Are you holding, man
Up all night
Please don't melt
Falling down
Bump me up
Time to hit the town
God save the Snowman
His teeth are falling out,
His head is in the clouds
His nose is on the ground
God save the Snowman
Jump my heart
Because I'm coming down
Save my life
Help him get
The carrot from his mind
Falling down, not being round
The flakes go up, not hit the ground
Falling down, not being round
Toast the day to winter's clown
won't need a broom to help him now.
Get it up
Wish I could
Get a life
Not this time
I'd like to sing a story for you
Here's what I'd sing if I could impress you
Hear me can you hear me?
Hear me can you hear me?
Hear me can you hear me now?
You've got to be the prettiest girl
I've ever witnessed in the whole world
Hear me can you hear me?
Hear me can you hear me?
Hear me can you hear me now?
We both talk about love
We both know about love
We both sing the songs
Can you hear me can you hear me now?
Yeah, come on come on now
Yeah, come on come on now
Yeah, come on come on now
Yeah, come on come on
I'd like to write a story for you
with a little melody pretty for you
Hear me can you hear me?
Hear me can you hear me?
Hear me can you hear me now?
Never condescend to you, my dear
Always speak the words so lovely to hear
Hear me can you hear me?
Hear me can you hear me?
Hear me can you hear me now?
We both talk about love
We both know about love
We both sing the songs
Can you hear me can you hear me now?
Yeah, come on come on now
Yeah, come on come on now
Yeah, come on come on now
Yeah, come on come on
Where did you come from
Where are you now?
Just like an angel
Seems like you left me
When you broke down
Down
Down
Down
Yeah, come on come on now
Yeah, come on come on now
Yeah, come on come on now

They made the snowman take of his clothes
Take off his fur,
Take off his claws
Take off his soul
'Cause what he had done,
Now they did to him
It seemed like the perfect thing to do
But was it true?
His eyes were oh so blue
Didn't wear shoes...
They put him away for all to see
'Cause they were afraid of what he could be
But he was the same as you and me
They put him away for the rest of his being
They made the snowman take out his eyes,
Take off his skin
Take out his heart
Take out his gold
'Cause what he had done,
Now they did to him
It seemed like the perfect thing to do
But was it true?
His eyes were also blue
Didn't wear shoes...
They put him away for all to see
'Cause they were afraid of what he could be
But he was the same as u and me
If you ask Uncle Charlie,
He'll give you some elderberry wine
If you ask Uncle Charlie,
He'll give you some elderberry wine
It may be what you want
But I got what you need--
Cinnamon I'll trip over you any old time you please
I'll trip over you any old time you please
You've got what I want
You've got what I need--
Cinnamon I'll give you cinnamon baby
When you're touching my knees
I'll give you cinnamon when we're old
I want you all over me
I'm gonna' start a rumour
Baby that's my soul
It's a bloody shame
You don't know what you've got in your hand
It's a bloody shame
You don't know what you've got in your hand
Baby if you want I can draw a diagram
I have seen the future
Trying to press her tongue between your lips
I have seen the future
Trying to press her tongue between your lips
[Intro - Bun B - talking]
Say mayne, I had this pussy ass nigga come up to me the other day
You know what I'm sayin?
Talkin 'bout "say Bun B
Bun B you gon' rep for P-A on this album?"
I said "you bitch ass nigga, I am P-A, who the fuck is you nigga?
Know what I'm sayin?
Everybody know I rep for Port Arthur, Texas to the fullest
Who the fuck know you nigga?
Don't nobody know you but your mama ho ass nigga
Move around nigga
I'm some on P-A shit, know what I'm talkin 'bout?"
[Verse 1 - Bun B]
P-A trill nigga, I was born ready bro
Our here on the grind, rain or shine, for the fetti bro
Work comin in and movin out with the steady flow
Boys out of line, pull the thing out, let it go
Always G'd out, blacked out, from my head to toe
And it ain't a question that I be out to get the dough
Call up my connect, get the powder in from Mexico
Late night, come across the border in the Chevy ho
Get it for the low, if you need a plug, let me know
I get it from him, you come to me for the petty coke
That's the way the cycle go around like a merry go
Round, put it down for my town, they already know
Every time I try to get away, I can't let it go
Plush lifestyle, fly cars and the pretty hoes (pretty hoes)
So play your distance by scenario (what's up?)
Load up the van, let's hit the highway, here we go (here we go)
[Chorus - Bun B]
We hit the road and get the snow money
Bring it home, take it to the mall, blow money
Hit the strip club, take it out, throw money
Then get back up on the road and get mo' money
Mo' money, mo' money, money, mo' (mo')
Mo' money, mo' money, money, mo' (mo')
Mo' money, mo' money, money, mo' (mo')
Mo' money, mo' money, money, mo' (mo')
[Verse 2 - Bun B]
You know it's "UGK 4 Life" and I'm a ride for that
Disrespect the game and I can't let you slide for that
It don't really matter where ya people try to hide ya at
'Cause I'm a find ya, pull up behind ya, apply the MAC
Milli on the really, (I'm a G), bonafide for that
Talkin down on the Underground, you get denied for that
Where I come from, lot of pussy niggaz died for that (where?)
Port Arthur, Texas, I got a lot of pride for that (huh)
So when we hit the road, haters better hide your hat (why?)
We hittin licks with them bricks and them ninety packs (damn)
I hit this over twenty bro, it ain't no lie to that
Sting 'em for 300K and now I got to ride it back (so what ya doin?)
I'm lookin for the laws, where ya hidin at? (I see 'em)
Pull me over, I'm the decoy, fly for that (let's go)
Oh yeah, I'll take the speeding ticket, where ya sign for that?
'Cause the dope and money never in the car I'm ridin at (ride it back)
[Chorus]
[Verse 3 - Bun B]
And now we back up in the hood, where we 'sposed to be
In the back, countin up them stacks that we 'sposed to see
Pussy ass niggaz (niggaz), ain't even gettin close to me (at all)
They know I'd have they mama prayin with a rosary (for real)
And I'm a put another hole where they nose should be
If they ever think of the position of opposin me (damn)
A couple rounds plus a thought that probably froze 'em
we gon' lay a nigga down 'cause we (Feenin) like we Jodeci (hold up)
They on the streets talkin 'bout that they exposin me (what?)
Exposin what? I'm a open book, close it G (close it)
You talkin tough but we know you just posin see
And I'm a leave 'em stiffer than a mannequin (with holes in he)
You ain't friends, then you foes with me
And we can go to war definitely nigga, not supposedly
I'm not your average, I'm the chosen G
And if your money ain't snow money, best to get it frozen G ('cause we)
Who put the dick on the snowman
And embarrassed the family?
Could have used a Ball bat
Cucumber or a zucchini
But instead you used a thimble,
Somethin' you could barely see!
Who put the dick on the snowman,
Got no fuckin' birds
Ain't got no fuckin' money
The dog don't fuckin' recognise me
Get chucked outta my fuckin' house next week
Well I take myself from my dirty bed
Can't find my clothes, can't find my head
And the DT's all over me
My eyes are bloodshot, I can't see
Well who's gonna make me happy
Feeling so down again
Who's gonna make me happy
Feeling down again
So I run through the streets
I gotta find my man
I make my cash the best I can
I'm going half-way up
And I'm half-way down
My head is spinning round and round
Well the Snowman'll make me happy
The Snowman is here, again
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all
And there'll be times when you can't glow
You feel your life is being choked
Till you never know just who you are
Your mind has gone, your soul (??)
Well who's gonna make you happy
Feeling so down again
Who's gonna make you happy
Feeling down again
So you try to lie just one more time
You try to lie that you feel fine
Till there's nothing left inside your head
There's no escape until you're dead
The Snowman'll make you happy
Feeling so down again
Snowman'll make you happy
Snowman is here, again
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all - he did me
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all - he fucked me
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all
Stale sweat and cinnamon
I guess she is frightened most of all
Loves to fly but she's scared to fall
She's got scars on the outside
Says they're the worst kind
And I don't ask
She turns the lights out and locks the door
If this is fate count me out
And never try
Please never try to hold her down
Broken home
Broken bones
She never told anyone but me
And everything seemed make believe
We both ran
You can't ever catch horizon
Guess that's why we've both been riding so damn long
She says she thinks of me as home
If this is fate count me out
And never try
Please never try to hold her down
Hands on hips and lips to lips
I don't know how much someone could take from her
Fourth of July
Watch the night sky
I climb the ladder of those black and white keys
They take me out and into places some are real some are imaginary
And though she sways between a mystery and light
She walks with me, she walks with me alone into the night
Tonight I see the sunny moon is rising again
Three seasons passed since you were here then disappeared a friend
Yet now exploded from its dream back in that place oh how it beams
And I see that you were glowing in the shadows
And you've been here all along
Ah you never left my side and now I feel my arms grow
Stronger
You may forget the details and you can forget the dates but never
Forget the moment when the light revealed her face
To be poor by lack of money but by god be rich in prize
I found my youths desire dark within her eyes
And the tent kept breathing something and then she cried -
'Hold on we're going somewhere else tonight'
We're going somewhere else tonight baby yeh!
And my friends they are the heroes of the loneliness that's life
And though everyone has a weakness only some they are defiant
While most of us can see only a few have the gift of sight
Would you walk with me
Would you walk with me alone into the night
The sun is set
Got no fuckin' birds
Ain't got no fuckin' money
The dog don't fuckin' recognise me
Get chucked outta my fuckin' house next week
Well I take myself from my dirty bed
Can't find my clothes, can't find my head
And the DT's all over me
My eyes are bloodshot, I can't see
Well who's gonna make me happy
Feeling so down again
Who's gonna make me happy
Feeling down again
So I run through the streets
I gotta find my man
I make my cash the best I can
I'm going half-way up
And I'm half-way down
My head is spinning round and round
Well the Snowman'll make me happy
The Snowman is here, again
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all
And there'll be times when you can't glow
You feel your life is being choked
Till you never know just who you are
Your mind has gone, your soul (??)
Well who's gonna make you happy
Feeling so down again
Who's gonna make you happy
Feeling down again
So you try to lie just one more time
You try to lie that you feel fine
Till there's nothing left inside your head
There's no escape until you're dead
The Snowman'll make you happy
Feeling so down again
Snowman'll make you happy
Snowman is here, again
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all - he did me
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all - he fucked me
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all
He's gonna fuck you
the curtain's a sea anemone
in the way it sways
to the slow breeze
I lie spread out on the floor
looking at these things
and most of them are yours
and it's so nice
sitting very still
without those old shoes
I could never fill
starfish with its arms out in a daze
staring at the stars
through an ocean haze
was I one you wished upon?
burned out like a lightbulb
when you turned me on
and it's so nice
sleeping here all alone
with my ashtray and
white courtesy telephone
now I'm making out the shapes
like the shower rod - can it take my weight?
I will tell you I am fine
I got some news, friend, feels like I'm dying
turtle on its back in the desert sea
and you look like a cool drink
just slightly out of reach
draw myself into the shell
waiting on a sign from god
or a nod from hell
and it's so nice
sitting very still
without those old shoes
I could never fill
no we're turning on the lights
it's the first day of my second life
take my name off of the lease
A child his bed sleeping within the warm house
The dream the emotion of tomorrow soon will be
Christmasv And sleeping is not easy
Snow and cold cloud the place around
The door is closed not even shadows can penetrate
All seems buried white and silent nobody walks in the
holy night
Souls, men, animals
It’s dark blackness in the room only the colored lights
take place
Happy but frightened by the night fear of sadness
monsters of the mind
It’s dark!!
There’s you with your dead hands
Your cylindrical hat the sadistic smile
Your eyes without pupils black
By the path of frozen buried flowers
It will be the day of reindeers and of the white
bearded man
Today is the great day of reindeers of the iceman that
grins and greets
Big icy man fighting against happiness
Within my horror I want you like a bloodthirsty
murderer
Blood at your feet the pool expands With my thoughts I
will take you to knock next door
I do not know you the snowman smiling
Lifeless when there’s light immortal during the night
Fierce like the beast in the jungle
It will be the day of reindeers and of the white
bearded man
Today is the great day of reindeers of the iceman that
she said "i just got tired of hanging around
wasting away and nowhere bound
i ran around town with a colored man
and my daddy was in the ku klux klan
now pleasure is my business, sin may be my game
empty your pockets and i'll love you the same"
if the price is right i'm yours tonight
at midnight baby i'll even scream your name
i'm worth the while, you'll get service with a smile
and i'll be gone by the break of dawn
call me "sninnamon"
nobody ever cared or gave a damn
i'm just doing the best i can
i got a little girl and she's all alone
waiting for me to get back home
this business is my living as far as i can tell
Sneakin' down your alley way
And knockin' on your door
Thought I had enough but I'm back for more
Cinnamon let me in
Cinnamon let me in
Knock, knock, let me in
I won't go away
Oh, uh, uh

Sha la, la, la, la, la, la

Cinnamon
Cinnamon
Cinnamon let me in
Cinnamon let me in
Sun through the curtains,
I gave you a sign,
The birds were all quiet,
You were so quiet,
Some hear a call,
Some are the messengers,
I thumb through the pictures,
and know them all.
They said, "Do you remember when you saw her last"
I said, "Her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon."
I have too many stories, keeping it serious,
Some are collectores, some keep it straight,
It was a hospital,
I was delirious,
I clung to the stretcher
and drew them a heart.
Two gondolas to carry us,
Grand Via was hillarious,
St. Paul was there to marry us,
We lied, "We're already married!"
'Cuz here's proof: we have suntans,
And I spoke up with my new hands,
Listen to my car,
What is it telling us?
Start...please start..please start.
Is it spring where you are?
I waited all winter
chasing the lamp cords back to the wall,
It's a plausable scenario:
I clung the the stretcher,
I drew them a heart.
Sneakin down your alley way
And knockin' on your door
Thought I had enough
But I'm back for more
Cinnamon, let me in
Knock, knock, let me in
I won't go away
Oh, uh, uh
I'm gonna see ya
If it takes all day
Oh, uh uh
Cinnamon let me in
She la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la la, la, la, la
One potato, two potato
Three potato, four
Open up, Cinnamon
I want more
Five potato, six potato
Seven potato, eight
Give it to me, Cinnamon
I can't wait
You can't hide, girl
I'm comin' inside, girl
Do what you want to
Baby, I'll let you
Might as well face it
Cinnamon, you know I'm gonna get ya
She la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la la, la, la, la
The purple walls I'm swimming in
It was the first and the last time
We broke those hearts of cinnamon
I can remember what it taste like
The room was moving, you were losing
A balance and all kinds of things like me
I heart this coming from a mile away
Ask my friends outside if it's all okay
Can I leave you now, and break us to pieces?
It's gonna sting like hell when you're missing nights
And the gang's all set for the Friday fights
But I'm so ready to break us to pieces
A friendly face to fill the void
You're the glue and the staple
A parachute and we're deployed
I can remember what it felt like
The wind was blowing, so where we going?
Maybe far away from home
Oh, home sweet home
I heart this coming from a mile away
Ask my friends outside if it's all okay
Can I leave you now, and break us to pieces?
It's gonna sting like hell when you're missing nights
And the game's all set for the Friday fights
But I'm so ready to break us to pieces
I say oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh, oh
I heard this coming from a mile away
Ask my friends outside if it's all okay
Can I leave you now, and break us to pieces?
It's gonna sting like hell when you're missing nights
And the game's all set for the Friday fights
But I'm so ready to break us to pieces
The castle has fallen
The birds have left their nest
The government is getting wasted
And the people locked everything else
The diagram is faulty
We haven't learned to speak
The prize is truly priceless
But I don't dare to compete
I never really had a reason
I never really had a reason
To call this thing off
I never really had a reason
I never really had a reason
To call this thing off
I stand by the road with a handful of cinnamon
Waiting for the sky to fall, but I'm not holding my
breath
Watch as your skeleton makes a home in my yard
I'm trying not to lose it, but I never knew it would be
so damn hard
Stand tall or crash against the wall
Time to pay for all my yesterdays
(I've got a plan, it's a good one
We could make a lot of money
Hear me out, never mind
It was stupid anyway
Let's go watch a lot of TV
Think it makes my brain hurt)
We've got recipes for a daughter
And cinnamon for a queen
And a president made of flowers
With a priest who cannot read
And I always want to meet them
But they're never what they seem
I'll go spin a lot of words
I really don't know what they mean
I never once said my peace
Instead, I say this song
But life's that way
It's always been
Which is why I'm marching on
Right, two, three, four
Left, two, three, four
