General: My Christmas Song - Snow Man

So I had this amazing (!) idea of doing a Christmas Album this year, but thanks to excessive drinking, Skyrim and a cold this never really happened. I managed to record two Christmas classics (which were essentially Karaoke) and a reading of "The Owl and the Pussy Cat" in a stupid voice.

Possibly the best thing I managed to do (and that says a lot) is do a cover version of "Rocket Man" by Elton John, but using alternative lyrics to become "Snow Man". It's chilled out and done on acoustic guitar. My lovely house mate James Looney did the guitar work.

The lyrics, for those want to be spared of my ever diminishing vocal skills, are as follows:

Got packed from snow last night, pretty tight
A bunch of kids, maybe twelve or ten
And I came to life, thanks to them
A carrot for a nose and a bowler hat
A scarf not to my taste
And charcoal buttons

I don't think it's gonna be a long long time
Till sunshine hits me right between the eyes
I'm not a man, I'm just a sculpture of snow
Oh, ho ho ho, I'm a snow man
Snow man, melting away under the sun

I'm just a man of snow, I can't have kids
Not even snow balls help
With no snow women around, only men
When winter passes - what happens to me?
Can you guess what my raison d'etre is?
I'm a snow man, a snow man

Snow man, melting away under the sun
Snow man, while everyone else is having fun
Snow man, melting away under the sun
Snow man, while everyone else is having fun

You can find both of the tracks on my soundcloud page - although I apparently have two
