verse 1:
The snowman is shaping up to be an eight, but not out of ten
C5 G5
The robots awake to find out they've been taped down wondering when
Am
They'll break through these chains,
F C
but little boys have action toys for brains
G
I'm living proof it can last a long time
C5
Now the girls up the street are innocent and sweet
F5
well they're all in bed
C5
They got their makeup and dreams of wonderland
G5
sprinkled inside their heads
