Nicholas Burgess — Minnesota Ice Man lyrics

Lyrics

Missed connection: 1968 state fair
Me: trapped in a block of ice, you: longing eyes and golden hair
Centuries passed and finally I can see you when I die, and
I’ll tell you sorry, Annabelle
I didn’t mean to make you cry
When you looked into the ice
And I looked into your eyes
Dashed intentions! 9061: sun explodes
You: lost to the sands of time, me: in a quickly melting home
Centuries passed; I guess you died, but you’ll still be my bride, and
I’ll tell you sorry, Annabelle
I didn’t mean to make you cry
When you looked into the ice
And I looked into your eyes
Born a Minnesota boy
Raised by Minnesota wolves
Fell into Minnesota ice
Found by Minnesota men
Shown the Minnesota world
Saw a Minnesota girl; I’m gonna make her mine
And we’re gonna get married
Have little ghost babies
A happy supernatural family
Domestic life in the afterlife
Ectoplasmic wife and me
Wouldn’t it be nice? Not trapped under ice
Every spectral nicety
Kill me now!
Kill me now!
Kill me now!
Kill me now!
And I’ll tell you sorry, Annabelle
I didn’t mean to make you cry
When you looked into the ice
And I looked into your eyes
