Cold Enough

Skirmish: Cold Enough For You? (@metalfoot)Liner Notes
For @metalfoot #skirmish "Cold enough for you?". I'll say so. Woke up to -40 today so I simply had to see this one through.
Pretty rough demo. Looking forward to polishing this one up a bit.
Lyrics
Its minus forty whatever degree you come from My furnace can't keep up With this Arctic system I took my dog out To shake the crazy When we got round the block Her face was full of freezies
Cold enough for you Why we living here? Australia has spiders And the American have awful beer
Cold enough for you? Let's stay inside Ill be under this blanket While you take your sled for a ride
Who gave us a long weekend In February? With the cost of living I can't afford a hot retreat Going out Means 13 layers and a car Because you'll freeze your face If you walk very far.
Cold enough for you Why are we living here? Australia has spiders the American have awful beer
Cold enough for you? Let's stay inside Ill be under this blanket Go take your sled for a ride
I give up Everything hurts From my joints To my skin I've never felt worse My brain needs sunlight But I need heat Maybe I'll go live Among the reefs in Mozambique
Cold enough for you We should be leaving here. Australia has spiders the American have awful beer
Cold enough for you? Let's stay inside Ill be under this blanket Go take your sled for a ride

WoW! Great Groove! I'm diggin' the drivin' rhythm! Love the "heavy weather"!! lyrics were so relatable! There the end there was a section that reminded me of Nirvana! Suh-Weeeet!

This was really fun and funny to listen to, all the little anecdotes you’ve added to give little insights on your daily struggle with the cold. I’ll try not to moan about the weather here as much. Really love the sparse rocky guitar rhythm too. And the kazoo is the cherry on the cake!

Yes, American's have awful beer. This feels like arctic metal. Nice job.

That bass line riff has a real cold edge to it, my favourite line is "I took my dog out/ to shake the crazy". Great work, keeping it rough!

Lol Enjoyed listening, loved the guitar, vocal delivery, and kazoo.

Nice edge to the guitar. Fun and far too relatable lyric. LOL

Damn this has some slick rhymes and I really enjoy the anti-cold sentiment (not quite AS cold here but damn it is cold enough for me!)

Nice driving rhythm 40 below is too cold. Sound of the song really supports the words, and kazoo is a great touch. Nice skirmish

I like the folksy perspective with the jangly guitar. Good cold skirmishing!

Gnarly write, @jeremykazoo ! "Australia and spiders"; "America and awful beer"; "freeze your face"; I'll be under this blanket"; "Go take your sled for a ride"?--classic lol lines among what seems golden stream-of-consciousness-like writing, man, woven cleverly within this off-beat gem of a lyric! And in song no different as it rocks just as wildly infectious with cold-sense hilarity, broken-archaic and recaptured guitar shred/strum, and unique vocals. Nice freezing skirmish!
