Song Description

A bad-timing man gets the come-uppance he deserves when his lady makes him live with the icy-cold shoulder

Lyrics

My face is so frozen I can't cry a tear
Say damn baby It's Gotten Cold In Here

There's a chill wind blowin' through our living room
Your shoulder's gotten colder than a mummy's tomb
There's frost on the windows got a blanket cross my knees
Funny 'cause the paper reads a hundred degrees
I'm just layin' low stayin' out of your way
Been like this for seven hours and sixteen days

Known a lot of women but I tell you they're just friends
Where them earrings came from I can't comprehend
What else can I give you but rotten alibis
You're both judge and jury and I'm guilty in your eyes
I know I ain't perfect no man of the year
But damn baby It's Gotten Cold In Here

Never will forget that look on your face
When you saw me with your sister by the fireplace
I swear it wasn't nothin' but a fond embrace
What else can I do to prove I'm true to you

Sleepin' on the sofa eatin' take out every night
My clothes are in the driveway you know that ain't right
You cut off all my lovin' I'm frozen to the bone
It's warmer in the doghouse hangin' with my own
So move over Rover get daddy a beer
'Cause damn baby It's Gotten Cold In Here

Those stockings were a freebie that I found in the mail
There's perfume on my collar but I didn't inhale
That number on my speed dial's a minor detail
Give me one more chance I've learned who wears the pants

Those flowers and that necklace were bought with you in mind
You've frozen off my assets now I'm servin' hard time
Thought I'd feel warmer in this river of sin
I'd turn up the oven but you'd just push me in
I swear I'll try harder baby I'm sincere
It's Gotten Cold In Here
