The Lyrics
Sometimes I feel
Like I don't have a parka
Sometimes I feel
Like I don't have sweats
In the city I live in
In frigid Alaska
Ten pounds of clothes but
I'm getting frostbite
I can't fall asleep
Cause heating is broken
I wish there were pills
That could make me feel warm
At least there's no sleet, hail
Or trees falling down swiftly
It's just a flurry
Now that is a lie
I don't really want to deal
With this bitter cold
Take me to a place less rough
Maybe Buffalo
I don't really want to deal
With this bitter cold
Take me to a place less rough
Maybe Buffalo (yeah yeah)
It's hard to believe
The we actually moved here
It's hard to believe
That it is so cold
At least I have earmuffs
But they don't do much, see
10 pounds of clothes but
I'm getting frostbite
I don't really want to deal
With this bitter cold
Take me to a place less rough
Maybe Buffalo
I don't really want to deal
With this bitter cold
Take me to a place less rough
Maybe Buffalo (yeah yeah)
So cold (so cold, yeah yeah)
Let's move away, yeah, yeah
Out of the blizzard now
Is where I want to go
Out of the blizzard now
Let's move to Mexico
Out of the blizzard now
Don't want to need my coat
Out of the blizzard now
I want to move away (yeah yeah)
So cold (so cold, yeah yeah)
Let's move away, yeah, yeah
Like I don't have a parka
Sometimes I feel
Like I don't have sweats
In the city I live in
In frigid Alaska
Ten pounds of clothes but
I'm getting frostbite
I can't fall asleep
Cause heating is broken
I wish there were pills
That could make me feel warm
At least there's no sleet, hail
Or trees falling down swiftly
It's just a flurry
Now that is a lie
I don't really want to deal
With this bitter cold
Take me to a place less rough
Maybe Buffalo
I don't really want to deal
With this bitter cold
Take me to a place less rough
Maybe Buffalo (yeah yeah)
It's hard to believe
The we actually moved here
It's hard to believe
That it is so cold
At least I have earmuffs
But they don't do much, see
10 pounds of clothes but
I'm getting frostbite
I don't really want to deal
With this bitter cold
Take me to a place less rough
Maybe Buffalo
I don't really want to deal
With this bitter cold
Take me to a place less rough
Maybe Buffalo (yeah yeah)
So cold (so cold, yeah yeah)
Let's move away, yeah, yeah
Out of the blizzard now
Is where I want to go
Out of the blizzard now
Let's move to Mexico
Out of the blizzard now
Don't want to need my coat
Out of the blizzard now
I want to move away (yeah yeah)
So cold (so cold, yeah yeah)
Let's move away, yeah, yeah
Buffalo is a cold place in upstate New York

nice parody shame you didn't change each chorus good though 555
[AGES] Agreed with Tomario. RHCP are so repetitive, a great parody of them needs variations.
That's what I don't get, why do you need to make variations in a chorus the original song repeats? As for the song, it was great, same theme as my "Gusty North Winds". You could consider moving to Tumbes or Piura on Peru's north coast. Lima is nice in the summer but a but chilly in the winter with drizzle and fog. It's a strange climate for the tropics.---MM
To MM, in re: chorus repetition-- many writers here agree that it just shows a sign of creativity to change all choruses. I wouldn't say that it's a hard and fast rule, though. Sometimes, repetition makes a parody funnier or is integral to the structure of the OS. In this one, I felt like more potential giggles could have come out of it.
(AGES) Exactly what everybody else said: Varied choruses make better parodies. Other than that it ruled.
I agree with the others about the repeating chorus, variation is usually always the key. I could tell that this was one of your earlier works.
(AGES) Pacing was decent with a couple of rough spots, but deffinitely an older work by you, sometimes repetitive chorus' are almost a necessity based on the original work, I think most of us started off that way. . .and on some songs I still do, it all depends. . .This may not be your best work, but all in all pretty good.
(Ages) Brrrrr! I just got out of a blizzard like that not too long ago, so I can sympathize. And the repetitive chorus actually kind of suits it. You're not very verbose when you're cold!
(AGES) Loved it RXCP rules, the OS and this parody too
Jack its RHCP Not RXCP
