Lyrics
Hoo
(Go)
Hoo
(Go)
Life is just a snowball
Waitin' for a windfall
Fate's a cool virtuoso
When Lady Luck swings to vertigo
Don't you know that love is a many splintered thing?
When your love ceases to be entertainin'
So you wise up to the rhythm
And hold his heart for ransom
Say, "Bye, bye handsome"
It's a cold, cold system
God bless Broadway
Applause is the worthiest cause
Go
Hoo
Go
Hoo, hoo
Life inside a snowball
Waitin' for a curtain call
Better not lean on that highball
When the box office falls
We're all just clowns for hire
Walkin' on that high wire
Mimin' all desires
So sweetly inspired by yesterday's fire
Life is just a snowball
Who can say you have it all
Just look through the glass so clearly
Sounds and whispers callin', "Love you dearly"
And all these checkered lines and fatal lies
Disappear so sincerely
Chalk it up, hey
