lyrics

walk down the street
and I cause such a panic
I did not know that I was your ice cream man
so I walk through a park
observed many a picnic
I become the very center of their attention
just me and my cart
my ice cold heart
just crack my top
but oh no man it's too late

I melted away
I lost all my shape
most people must work for this
but I don't have to I'm blessed

call up my priest to get a second kind of opinion
he concurred he said "oh yes sir"
I am your ice cream man
I said of this illness
can you please name me just one of them symptoms
"one with very icy kind of disposition"
but it's okay, no wait it's too late

I melted away
I lost all my shape
I'm in a puddle yeah so what
I'm way way way way way past my best
I'm just a nuisance

I am the purest whitest kind of fur
left exposed out in the warmer climates
I am the bluest kind of pain
left on the lips of someone that's fallen and drowned in the ice
grab him up by the loose end
pull him out thread by thread by thread
factory [dis]assembly
what do you get
the one big knot
what does that mean
the body is lost
should've given up my coat
but I took all the heat

and I melted away
I lost all my shape
most people must work for this
but I don't have to I'm blessed
