A WINTER’S TALE

Actor # 5: (singing) What do we all liveth for in the winter when it’s forty below? On mid-winter break, we ache for flakes, (pause) flakes and flakes of snow—(hold)   (Speaking parts)

Non-ny non-ny; Non-ny non-ny; Non-ny non-ny no; Snow Hey Ho. (Singing) Part 1: Non-ny non-ny; Non-ny non-ny; Non-ny non-ny no; Part 2: Snow Hey Ho. How we love snow. Hey Ho. How we love snow.

All: Oh what a day, Oh what a sight! Wonderful world, All dressed in white. How I love staying out, Love playing out in the snow.

Look here it comes, Just watch it fall. We’ll have a white Christmas af—ter all. How I love going out, Oh it’s blowing out—in the snow.

We can ride a toboggan And ski down a hill. Go on a sleigh-ride, Oh boy, what a thrill! Glide—and slide—on figure skates, Hurry, don’t be late.

Non-ny non-ny; Non-ny non-ny; Non-ny non-ny no; Snow Hey Ho. (Singing) Part 1: Non-ny non-ny; Non-ny non-ny; Non-ny non-ny no; Part 2: Snow Hey Ho. How we love snow. Hey Ho. How we love snow.

All: Oh how I love, Each little flake. Snow is the icing on the cake. How we’ll be heading out, Fun sledding out in the snow.

Please make it quit. Please make it stop. These aren’t just flakes— It’s a bumper crop!

Please go away! Don’t make us stay. Look at all this snow! All of my plans have been put on hold. Who can go out when it’s this freezing cold? Snow can ruin everything. Let’s just jump to spring!
