It's colder, been snowing a lot lately

It makes me wanna stay in bed with her and never leave

And lately my heads been filled with that kinda cheese

It seems the devil ain't givin' us no release yeah

I used to be cool

I'm gonna go

Where the debt collectors

I'm growing hateful towards the guy that drives the thirty-eight

I tell 'em all I'm doing great

What a load

I'm gonna go

Just won't find me
