lyrics

Grey Ice

Only play where the ice is thick
If a sign is posted obey it
See a hole or a wave turn around and pick
Another place to frolic

Grey ice stay away
Blue's the thickest
Hard to say if white is thick enough each day
You're better safe than sorry

Snowmobiling 25 centimeters
Skating with friends 20 centimeters
On the ice alone 15 centimeters
Any less than that you could fall through a crack

Grey Ice stay away
Blue's the thickest
Hard to say if white is thick enough each day
You're better safe than sorry
You're better safe than sorry
