Lyrics

Thirteen degrees in Michigan
We're not ready for this again
This just happened two
Months ago

In the middle of the mitten,
The snow's so deep you can't see in
The windows that are all fogged
Anyway

And we say,
"We're ready to move
We can get out of this town
This state's got it out for us

And if only the snow hadn't
Frozen us in,
We would pray there's no construction, so we could
Get out of Michigan"

It's not easy writing songs around here
With gloves on hands and muffs on ears
Can't hear what I've been trying
To write

Everybody's agnostic,
But still celebrates Christmas
The gifts are what it's all about
Anyway

And we say,
"We're ready to move
We can get out of this town
This state's got it out for us

And if only the snow hadn't
Frozen us in,
We would pray there's no construction, so we could
Get out of Michigan"

And we say,
"We're ready to move
We can get out of this town
This state's got it out for us

And if only the snow hadn't
Frozen us in,
We would pray there's no construction, so we could
Get out of Michigan"
