One ten year old was found after three weeks
一个十岁男孩在雪堆中被发现,距离他家门仅十英尺
In a snowdrift ten feet from his door

Some fell asleep in their cars and awakened no more
有些人在车里睡着,再也没有醒来
25 people died shoveling snow
25人因铲雪而丧生
Have that done by somebody you hate
这种事还是让讨厌的人去做吧
166 looters arrested but wait

I spent the blizzard of '78

On a commune in northern Vermont

Music was very much not allowed

So we said hey kids let's start a band
于是我们说,嘿,孩子们,让我们组个乐队吧
Proof that ganesh loves us

There was no tape deck at hand
但手边连个录音机都没有
The first band I'd had was called one and a half

We were a duo technically

So if Tonto's expanding head band was a band

So were we

We called ourselves the black widows

We weren't the last nor the first

But we were almost certainly by far the worst

As for rehearsal
