The Handsome Family
Snowball
[Verse 1]
Snowball could just higher than any horse around
He jumped over a car, he jumped over a cow
And ten spotted ponies, standing on the house

[Verse 2]
Sometimes he went so high that when he came down
There were flowers on his legs from inside the clouds
But bad children would steal them and sell them downtown

[Chorus 1]
Snowball, Snowball
Born in the Spring
People say he jumped high enough
To hear the angels sing

[Verse 3]
As the years flew by, his legs started to creak
He was fitted with spectacles and new plastic teeth
The crowd still whispered about the glue factory

[Verse 4]
One rainy day, he fell while jumping over a bridge
Those bad children came running to poke at him with sticks
So he jumped up again, with a scream and a kick
[Chorus 2]
Snowball, oh, Snowball
Jumped up to the clouds
People say he jumped so high
He never came down

[Coda]
People say he jumped so high
He never came down
