    Well hey do you do Judo

    when they surround you

    A little mental yoga

    will they disappear



    It''s grim but never dubious as motives go

    One thing she''ll always promises

    promises is a show

    Thunder wishes it could be the Snow

    Wishes it could be as loved as she can be

    These gifts are here

    for her

    for you

    for me



    I watch me be this other thing and never know

    if I''m marooned or where the purple people go

    then lily white matricide

    from vicious words

    it doesn''t leave a scratch

    so therefore no one''s hurt



    Thunder wishes it could be the Snow

    Wishes it could be as loved as she can be

    These gifts are here

    for her

    for you

    for me



    And don''t you know

    The nurses make it clear

    Just when you''ve escape

    you have yourself to fear

    a restaurant that never has to close

    Breakfast, every hour

    it could save the world



    so hey do you do Judo in your finery

    an angel''s face is tricky to wear constantly



    Thunder wishes it could be the Snow

    Wishes it could be as loved as she can be

    These gifts are here

    for her

    for you

    for me

    For her

    for her
