The Lyrics
Inspired by a comment Alvin Rhodes made for my parody "Cold Player." This is about a very different kind of cold player. He won't be cold for long.
(instrumental opening)
Whoa, whoa whoa...
When no one else can understand me
when all my heat is up and gone
you give me hope and insulation
for you I'll strap the snowshoes on.
And you're always there
to warm my hands
in everything you do.
That's the wonder
of your wonder igloo.
(Wonder igloo!)
And when you smile my world is warmer.
You make me your Eskimo king.
Oh, whoa, whoa...
Your kiss to me is like a warm front.
Your parka's hood is everything.
I guess I'll never know
the reason why
you love a man so blue.
That's the wonder
of your wonder igloo.
Play it, James.
(James Burton guitar solo)
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa...
I guess I'll never know
the reason why
you love a man so blue!
That's the wonder
of your wonder igloo!
Whoa, whoa whoa...
When no one else can understand me
when all my heat is up and gone
you give me hope and insulation
for you I'll strap the snowshoes on.
And you're always there
to warm my hands
in everything you do.
That's the wonder
of your wonder igloo.
(Wonder igloo!)
And when you smile my world is warmer.
You make me your Eskimo king.
Oh, whoa, whoa...
Your kiss to me is like a warm front.
Your parka's hood is everything.
I guess I'll never know
the reason why
you love a man so blue.
That's the wonder
of your wonder igloo.
Play it, James.
(James Burton guitar solo)
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa...
I guess I'll never know
the reason why
you love a man so blue!
That's the wonder
of your wonder igloo!
Now you know why Elvis sang "Burning Love." Maybe he also ate too many Eskimo Pies.

Nice, do you know there's a hotel made from ice?
Let me guess, it's not the Hotel California.
Such an ice parody, such an ice song, such an ice sentiment!
always glad to inspire...wonderfully fresh concept here...
Nice work here, Mr. Pacholek. For the record, here in Wyoming, on April 11th, I scraped frost and snow off of my car this morning. I was at a leadership training yesterday, and part of it was outside...it was like the dead of winter...seriously. It couldn't have been more than 20 degrees...and colder than that with the wind. This wonderful igloo is sounding better and better...; )
Sorry to hear about your weather, Arwen. Here, it's a clear and balmy 50 or so degrees, but they're predicting a big drop and rain, possibly snow, for tonight, and torrential rains for tomorrow morning. Wait a second, what do YOU need "leadership training" for? You're the Queen! Unless you were the one doing the training.
Yeah...that's what I tried to tell my boss when she asked me to sign up for the program...but she wouldn't listen. It's actually a year long program, where we meet once a month, and explore different aspects of the community, which is supposed to make us better leaders. I'm not sure what exploring the workings of the Waste Water Treatment Plant, or the local Saw Mill have to do with helping me boss people around...but alas...sometimes I do what I'm told. =) 50 degrees, eh? It sounds wonderful...wish I could come out and bask in the warmth...
Bask? Heck, you'd bring the warmth. I'd love to take you to the Jersey Shore, but you'd probably spend my money (such as it is) in the Atlantic City casinos. Then again, maybe our respective bad lucks would cancel each other out, and you'd win. We could buy up the now-closed Sands Hotel and run it right. From the penthouse suite, of course. Then, with the thousand or so employees we'd need, you could put that leadership training to real use, while I turn the nearby Atlantic City Surf into a Yankee farm club. Ah, the dreams, the dreams. Just promise me you won't hire my evil twin Bernard to run security!
You couldn't eskimo better parody than this
Are you sure you weren't smoking something when you wrote this, Mikey? 'Cause this gives a whole new meaning to "baked Alaska!"
You're right...I would insist upon spending all of your money at the casino. It's what I do. Except that I'm kind of a wussy gambler, and never do anything more risky than the quarter slots. So...you probably wouldn't have to be afraid of losing too much. Also, I'd make sure to leave you enough money to shower me with gifts and jewelry. It's also what I do. =) OR...we could skip the gambling and just go watch a baseball game. I'm pretty easy to please.
