Thirteenth Night

The first day after Twelfth Night
The snow piled deep and high
We’d made the mistake of holding it
In Black Diamond, why, God, why?
You’d think we’d learned our lesson
Year One or Two or Three
But no, we drove up there like sheep
Big happy, one big happy
Happy Kingdom family
The second day after Twelfth Night
The ones with four-wheel had left
The rest of us on top of that hill
And as they left they laughed
We watched them go with tears in our eyes
As they scampered happily
Away from our, away from our
Happy Kingdom family.
The third day after Twelfth Night
We’d gone through all our clothes
And taken the dirty ones outside
To air dry in the snow
The phone still worked, and we told everyone
‚we’ll get home safe, you see,
Because we’re all one great big
Happy Kingdom family.‛
(Minor chord)
The Fourth Day After Christmas
When the booze that was left ran out-

...well, you’re an Atlantian, write your own d**n ending.
