Ice Fingers
Frozen Hearts and Broken Chords: Unveiling the Icy Tale of Ugly Cousin's 'Ice Fingers'
Lyrics
Ice fingers on my skin
Feeling a chilling sensation on the skin.
The summer cold always had a chokehold on me
Describing the persistent cold of summer affecting the speaker.
Who the hell let you in?
Expressing surprise or dismay at someone's presence.
I was turned around and I know damn well it wasn't me
Being disoriented and denying responsibility for letting someone in.
Can't you see it's a party?
Observing that it's a festive atmosphere.
I'm cutting lines with the knife my mother owned since '83
Using a knife from the speaker's mother to cut lines, possibly referencing drug use.
And who's this you brought to my home?
Questioning the identity of a guest brought to the speaker's home.
She seems nice but I think I'd rather not have you two stay alone
Expressing discomfort with the idea of leaving the two guests alone.
Ohh-ohh
Repeating vocalizations conveying emotion or frustration.
You have ice fingers baby, a cold heart and maybe
Addressing someone with cold and unfeeling characteristics.
You'll be just who you wanna while I'll be in the corner stuck staring at my shoes
Predicting that the person will act as they please while the speaker feels isolated.
You have ice fingers baby, you're freezing up lately
Reiterating the cold nature of the person and its impact on the speaker.
You're breaking my heart in two, who knew?
Expressing surprise or disappointment at the person's ability to hurt the speaker.
I'll call you later forevermore
Committing to call the person indefinitely.
I didn't know hanging out with me could be such a bore
Discovering that spending time with the speaker can be dull.
And just because you play guitar
Challenging the idea that playing guitar defines one's character.
Doesn't make you the man, it means you lack grandeur
Suggesting that playing guitar doesn't imply greatness.
Your little friend, and she's so sweet
Referring to a companion, possibly derogatorily, and questioning her age.
I didn't know you liked them so young freshly eighteen
Expressing surprise or disapproval of the person's preference for a younger companion.
And this is not for you, it's for me
Clarifying that the message is for the speaker, not the mentioned person.
Writing songs about how much I hate your teeth
Writing songs expressing disdain, particularly about the person's teeth.
You have ice fingers baby, a cold heart maybe
Repeating the characterization of the person with cold and unfeeling traits.
You'll be just who you wanna while I'll be in the corner stuck staring at my shoes
Reiterating the predicted behavior of the person and the speaker's sense of isolation.
You have ice fingers baby, you're freezing up lately
Emphasizing the continued coldness of the person and its impact on the speaker.
You're breaking my heart in two, who knew?
Expressing surprise or realization at the person's ability to cause emotional pain.
