Marshmallow World

It’s a marshmallow world in the winter
When the snow comes to cover the ground
It’s time for play, it’s a whipped cream day
I wait for it all year around

Those are marshmallow clouds being friendly
In the arms of the evergreen trees
And the sun is red like a pumpkin head
It’s shining so your nose won’t freeze!

The world is your snowball, see how it grows
That’s how it goes, whenever it snows
The world is your snowball just for a song
Get out and roll it along!

It’s a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts
Take a walk with your favourite girl
It’s a sugar date, so what if spring is late
In winter it’s a marshmallow world!

It’s a marshmallow day in the winter
When the snow comes to cover the ground
It’s time for play, it’s a whipped cream day
And we wait for it whole year around!

Those are marshmallow cloud being friendly
In the arms of the evergreen trees
And the sun is red like a pumpkin head
It’s shining so your nose won’t freeze!

The world is your snowball, see how it grows
That’s how it goes, whenever it snows
The world is your snowball just for a song
Get out and roll it along!

It’s a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts
Take a walk with your favourite girl
It’s a sugary date, so what if spring is late
In winter it’s a marshmallow world…
In winter it’s a marshmallow world…
In winter it’s a marshmallow world…
