[Intro]
It’s cold, cold, cold
Making it so hot
So bold and old
Saying, “Why not?”
Why?
I, I, I
[Verse 1]
Do you know what it means
Pushing extremes…
… not in your dreams?
For real, real
Reel, reel
[Bridge]
Reeling in the years
Spinning out your fears
Running amuck
Uck, uck, uck
Running amuck
[Break]
Running amuck
Uck, uck, uck
Stuck in a rut
But, but, but
Cracked nut
Running amuck
Uck, uck, uck
[Verse 2]
Have you shattered your dreams
Pushing extremes…
… ruin your scenes?
… ruin your seens?
Know what it means
Pushing extremes…
For real, real
Reel, reel
[Bridge]
Reeling in the years
Spinning out your fears
Running amuck
Uck, uck, uck
Running amuck
[Break]
[Break]
Running amuck
Uck, uck, uck
Stuck in a rut
But, but, but
Cracked nut
Running amuck
Uck, uck, uck
[Outro]
Running amuck
Uck, uck, uck
Running amuck
Running amuck
Uck, uck, uck
Uck, uck, uck

ABOUT THE SONG
The song “It’s Cold, Cold, Cold” metaphorically depicts the chilly reception often encountered when delivering the urgent message of global warming and climate change.
In the opening lines, “It’s cold, cold, cold, making it so hot,” the contradiction highlights the disbelief or apathy faced when discussing the warming of the planet. Despite the pressing nature of the issue, the response is often dismissive or resistant, as indicated by the repetition of “So bold and old, saying, ‘Why not?'” The question “Why?” emphasizes the frustration and confusion of trying to convey the importance of addressing climate change.
The lyrics delve into the consequences of ignoring the reality of climate change, portraying it as pushing extremes and shattering dreams. The repetition of “reel, reel” and “running amuck” conveys a sense of chaos and disarray, emphasizing the destructive path humanity is on by disregarding the warnings of environmental degradation.
The refrain “Running amuck, uck, uck, uck” underscores the sense of being stuck in a rut, unable to break free from harmful behaviors and attitudes that contribute to climate change. Despite the urgency of the message, there is a sense of frustration and resignation, symbolized by the repetition of “Uck, uck, uck.”
Overall, “It’s Cold, Cold, Cold” serves as a poignant commentary on the challenges of raising awareness about climate change in the face of resistance and indifference, urging listeners to confront the reality of global warming before it’s too late.
