You come out at night
that's when the penguins come
and the dark side's light
and the seals roam
you strut your polar wear
and your wintry poem
and a bone from a falcon
that died before you came
you're building an igloo
you live in a igloo
where you sleep with pelicans
and you won't give up the search
for the frost in the halls
you wear sandals in the snow
and a smile that won't wash away
can you look out the window
without your pet fox getting in the way
oh you're so very ugly
with a frostbite and a missing finger
but so careful
when a piece of food's in your arms
(chorus)
'cause you're working
building a igloo
holding on and trying to hold back the wind
yeah you're working
building a igloo
and choosing ice blocks so carefully
you woke up screaming aloud
a nussle from your secret seal
you feed off our food
and hold back the wind
give us a tantrum
and a know it all grin
just when we need one
when the evening's thin
oh you're so very ugly
an ugly old man
you're setting up your
ice man shrine
chorus
repeat chorus
