Story Behind The Song

I've always maintained that I would build a Disneyland like theme park if I ever got rich and famous, and I set that dream to music.

Song Description

The hero of this song dreams of building an amusement park, if only he ever got rich enough to do so. He lets his love know that he is just as happy to be with her and their child. Though it's called "Snyderland," that's only because I'm using my last name. It can easily be switched to the last name of whomever is recording it.

Lyrics

SNYDERLAND
(©2015 Ggreg Snyder)

VERSE
When I get rich, tell you what I'll do
After I spend a bit of money on you
I'll buy one hundred sixty acres of ground
and build a place that will astound

CHORUS
My theme park will have cherry rides
Gnarly food, and it's all deep fried
Can't wait to show you what I've planned
I'm gonna build me a SnyderLand

VERSE

I'll have the biggest coaster in the world
And kiddie rides for the boys and girls
All the cars will spin about
We'll have a tunnel of love for making out

CHORUS
I'll have animatronic presidents
and I won't allow no discontent
I'm gonna lead the main street band
When I build my SnyderLand

(SOLO)

CHORUS
We'll have a special zone for outer space
and cool old western cowboy place
a control room where I keep command
where I'll rule my SnyderLand

(MODULATE 1 STEP)

VERSE
So, I'm not rich, pretty far from
It's all I can do to get me some
My dollars are all quickly spent
I'm lucky when I save a cent

CHORUS
But we got a roof and four strong walls
And a mini version of us that crawls
Wherever we walk hand in hand
That will be my SnyderLand

(SOLO)

CHORUS
My theme park will have cherry rides
Gnarly food, and it's all deep fried
I'm going to lead the main street band
When I build my Snyderland

TAG
Wherever we walk hand in hand
That will be my SnyderLand
