Billy name and brigid were playing under my stair case

On the second floor about two o'clock in the morning

I woke up

Because amos and archie had started barking

That was left at home and got sick and went p**sy heaven

Some snowflakes were falling

Gee it was so beautiful

And so I went to get my camera to take some pictures

And I was going to call fred or gerry

To find out how to get set it

I was too late

And then I remembered they were still probably at dinner

And anyway
说到底
I felt really bad and didn't want to talk to anybody

But the snowflakes were so beautiful and real looking

And that's when I heard the voices

From down the hall near the stairs

There's been all kinds of troubles

There were brigid and billy playing

And under the stair case

Was a little meadow sort of like the park at 23rd street

Where all the young kids go and play frisbee

Gee that must be fun

Maybe we should do an article on that in the magazine

But they'll just tell me I'm stupid and it won't sell

It's my magazine isn't it

So I was thinking that as the snowflakes fell

Gee it would be so great to have some fun
