Snowball in Hell Songtext
von They Might Be Giants

Avalanche or roadblock?
I was a snowball in Hell
Avalanche or roadblock?
A jailer trapped in his cell
Money′s all broke
And food's goin′ hungry
If it wasn't for disappointment
I wouldn't have any appointment

Side effect or drug trip?
Don′t tease me with all of your might
Side effect or drug trip?
My panacea′s in a Xerox shop
Have a nice day
You want it when?
Have a nice day
Have a nice day


I didn't expect to find a salesman drinking coffee this late in the morning
How long′ve you been here, Joe?
Oh, I don't know, I guess 30, 45 minutes, maybe
Why do you ask?
You must be making a lot of sales, piling up a good income
Oh-uh, I′m doing alright, I could do better, but-
Oh, I get it, Paul, back on that old "Time is money" kick, right?
I'm not "back on it", Joe, still on it

Avalanche or roadblock?
I was a snowball in Hell
Avalanche or roadblock?
A jailer trapped in his cell
Money I owe
Money-I-A
Money I owe
Money-I-A

Avalanche or roadblock?
I was a snowball in Hell
Yes, I was a snowball in Hell
Yes, I was a snowball in Hell
