Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Fox in the snow, where do you go
To find something you could eat?
'Cause the word out on the street is you are starving
[Verse 2]
Don't let yourself grow hungry now
Don't let yourself grow cold
Fox in the snow
[Verse 3]
Girl in the snow, where do you go
To find someone who will do?
To tell someone all the truth before it kills you
They listen to your crazy laugh
Before you hang a right
And disappear from sight
[Verse 4]
What do they know anyway?
You'll read it in a book
What do they know anyway?
You'll read it in a book tonight
[Verse 5]
Boy on the bike, what are you like?
As you cycle 'round the town
You're going up, you're going down
You're going nowhere
It's not as if they're paying you
It's not as if it's fun
At least not anymore
[Verse 6]
When your legs are black and blue
It's time to take a break
When your legs are black and blue
It's time to take a holiday
[Verse 7]
Kid in the snow, way to go
It only happens once a year
It only happens once a lifetime
[Verse 8]
Make the most of it
Second just to being born
Second to dying too
[Verse 9]
What else would you do?
What else would you do?
What else would you do?
What else would you do
[Verse 10]
Fox in the snow
(When your legs looking black and blue)
Fox in the snow
(It's not as if they're paying you)
[Verse 11]
Fox in the snow
(When your legs looking black and blue)
Fox in the snow
(It's not as if they're paying you)
[Verse 12]
Fox in the snow
Fox in the snow
