Music by Mike Skliar
Lyric by Mike Skliar & Nancy Rost

lyrics

How cold was it

It was so cold that the anti-freeze, froze
It was so cold that the little red liquid in the thermometer turned blue in the cold
It was so cold that Frosty the snowman booked a one way ticket to Miami Beach
It was so cold that the penguins started buying long underwear

How cold was it

It was so cold that soap bubbles turned solid and froze
It was so cold that radio stations that played cool jazz decided to stop playing
It was so cold that an ice cream truck was colder on the outside then the inside
It was so cold that the weather forecasts measured the temperature using negative exponential numbers

How cold was it

It was so cold that snowflakes decided it was too cold to be different and huddled together for warmth
It was so cold that hot chili peppers became edible in bulk
It was so cold that people put hot pockets in their pockets
It was so cold that striptease artists started putting on extra clothes
It was so cold that a woman had hot flashes and a crowd gathered around her for warmth
