points of note:
lyric:
I place a velvet top hat upon you chilly head
No buttons for your shirt (you cold hearted flirt)
You wear sequins instead
And in your twiggy grasp, no silly broom will do
I give you a guitar (you rock star)
To rock the cold night through
Black patent and sparkles
Shimmer in the snow
Like a million spotlights
Shining on the mistletoe
Black patent and sparkles
To melt your frosty heart
Now to make you a companion
Another little cold and lusty tart
Embellishments in black upon your flesh so white
Coal creates your nose (to match your painted toes)
And your eyes that match the night
The scarf around your neck becomes the envy of the crowd
But I’ll protect you from them all (among suburban sprawl)
While the sun says I’m allowed
Black patent and sparkles
Shimmer in the snow
Like a million tiny lights
Shining on the mistletoe
Black patent and sparkles
To melt your frosty heart
Now to make you a companion
Another little cold and lusty tart
Playing in the snow’s my favorite part
