Winter World War

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It was winter, cold enough to bite, Jacket zipped and my gloves on tight. Ear mittens tucked, I stepped outside, “Hey, this weather’s pretty nice!” I cried. Then a snowball clipped the back of me— I spun around: “Who could that be?” [Verse 2] Five girls stood there, trying not to grin, Packing fresh snow with trouble in. Kingston called, “You want a snowball fight? You get one!” And the yard took flight. [Chorus] Duck down, roll one, watch it fly, Snow went sailing across the sky. One became ten, then twenty more, Boots kept pounding past the door. What began as a normal snowball fight Turned into a winter world war overnight! [Verse 3] Boys came running from the other side, Every team had friends to guide. Behind the fort, we made our stand, A mitten waved like a general’s hand. “Hold your fire!” someone yelled too late— A powdery blast sealed their fate. [Bridge] Meanwhile inside, Oscar looked around, Hearing every thump and shout. “How come every single day it’s like—” A snowball smacked the window by his eye. [Final Chorus] Duck down, roll one, watch it fly, Snow went sailing across the sky. Five girls, Kingston, boys galore, Laughter thundering through the door. What began as a normal snowball fight Turned into a winter world war overnight! [Outro] Then the bell rang: “Everybody in!” We came back laughing, red-cheeked, grinning. Oscar sighed, “Tomorrow, stay inside…” Then a snowball bounced in from outside.
