Dutch Wonderland

Beneath the snow lies a dream that I once had

And I know that I'll never go back

To the christmas colored neighborhood as thoughtful as a card

With a plastic baby jesus in the yard

Chorus

It was all and it was nothing at all

It was all and it was nothing at all

What we didn't know we didn't think to ask

The world was just a globe they used in class

Where the gym teacher was always mad and as far as we could tell

He only exercised his right to yell

Chorus

As the kings of boredom we ruled as we knew how

Or at least as long as our curfews would allow

Couple skates, love-sick songs, in moments without pause

As johnny cougar amplified our cause

Chorus

We were the great believers that dreams came with stars

And freedom just depended on the car

Until one day the sky fell in and freedom lost control

And ran off the road and hit a pole

Chorus

Beneath the snow lies a dream that I once had
