Shovelin’ in a Winter Blizzard-Land

[Parody of “Winter Wonderland”… in case you couldn’t tell…]

Everywhere, it is snowing
Even worse, wind is blowing
Gotta get dressed
And clean up this mess
Shovelin’ in a winter blizzard-land

Don my coat and my mittens
Things get worse while I’m sittin’
It’s frigid outside
But man must abide
Shovelin’ in a winter blizzard-land

All the kids are happy ‘cause there’s no school
They’ll be romping ‘round the house all day
I walk through the front door with my steel tool
I know I have to make it go away

In the house, wife is sleeping
Through my clothes, sweat is seeping
My muscles are sore
But there’s plenty more
Shovelin’ in a winter blizzard-land

Maybe when I’m done, I’ll take a warm bath
Get myself all toasty through and through
Then I watch the sky and do some quick math:
In an hour, I’d start the job anew

Try to think, try to reason
It’s just part of the season
So mad I could spit
I’m just gonna quit
Shovelin’ in a winter blizzard-land

Shovelin’ in a winter blizzard-land
Shovelin’ in a winter blizzard-land
