Verse

In December, drinking hor chata

I'd look psychotic in a bala clava

Winter's cold is too much to handle

Pincher crabs that pinch at your sandals

Instrumental break

(Same as VERSE I)

In December, drinking horchata

Look down your glasses at that aranciata

With lips and teeth to ask how my day went

Boots and fists to pound on the pavement

Chorus

Here comes a feeling you thought you'd forgot ten

Chairs to sit and sidewalks to walk on

(Same as first two lines of the first verse)

You'd remember drinking horchata

You'd still enjoy it with your foot on masada

Instrumental break

(Same as last two lines of the first verse)

Winter's cold is too much to handle

Pincher crabs that pinch at your sandals

Chorus x2

Here comes a feeling you thought you'd forgotten

Chairs to sit and sidewalks to walk on

Oh you had it but oh no you lost it

Looking back you shouldn't have fought it

Instrumental break

(Same as first two lines of the first verse)

In December, drinking horchata

I'd look psychotic in a balaclava

(Repeat for this whole part)

But winter's cold is too much to handle

Pincher crabs that pinch at your sandals

Years go by and hearts start to harden

Those palms and firs that grew in your garden

Are falling down and nearing the rosebeds

The roots are shooting up through the tool shed

Those lips and teeth that asked how my day went

Are shouting up through cracks in the pavement

Instrumental break

Chorus x2

Here comes a feeling you thought you'd forgotten

Chairs to sit and sidewalks to walk on

Oh you had it but oh no you lost it

You understood so you shouldn't have fought it.
