Lyrics[edit | edit source]
Get me a sweater, it's cold
Said the lady to the dwarf
Fetch me some freedom soon
Or I'll be gone
Left on a train for a place
Not far from here
Dwarf-man said 'thy work
Shall be done
And now I'm freaking out
And now I'm freaking out
And now I'm freaking out
And now I'm freaking out
Champagne, apricot
Amber and rose
Squeezing my mind
When I find the time
Tree turned green after first freeze
And it looked like it was frozen
Frozen
And now I'm freaking out
And now I'm freaking out
And now I'm freaking out
And now I'm freaking out
Why can't this song go on and on
And on and on and on and on
If Bob Lee says it was okay
Okay
Put on your shoes and smile
When you can
Cause it looks like you were chosen
Chosen
And now I'm freaking out
And now I'm freaking out
And now I'm freaking out
And now I'm freaking out
