Mother Nature, enough with the bitter cold temperatures and ice! After yet another snowstorm that changed over to freezing rain combined with bone chilling winds, once again you made our backyard into a slippery when icy mess. I haven’t played fetch in days! So while I write yet another nasty letter to Mother Nature demanding her to change her ways, Asa has once again turned to music to voice his feelings. This time he has parodied Bon Jovi’s iconic classic, “You Give Love a Bad Name,” into a paw pounding arena anthem on the problems of ice. As always, my sincere apologies to all fans of the original song, including myself.
Stuck in the house, and cold’s to blame,
Mother Nature, ice gives winter a bad name!
A Polar Vortex is what you said,
You promised me snow, but you sent ice instead
On a leash now when I go pee,
When snow is my passion, I want to break free!
Oh! Mom slipped and fell!
Oh! Now I can’t run!
No one can melt this
This ice is no fun!
Stuck in the house, and cold’s to blame,
Ice gives winter a bad name, bad name!
I want to play, but this ice is insane,
Ice gives winter a bad name, bad name!
Ice gives winter…a bad name!
Subfreezing temps on your map
These bitter breezes make me want to nap
A puppy’s dream to go play fetch
Mom’s very first slip and I kissed that goodbye!
Whoa! Mom slipped and fell!
Whoa! Now I can’t run!
No one can melt this
This ice is no fun!
Stuck in the house, and cold’s to blame,
Ice gives winter a bad name, bad name!
I want to play, but this ice is insane,
Ice gives winter a bad name, bad name!
Ice gives winter…
Oh! Stuck in the house, and cold’s to blame,
Ice gives winter a bad name, bad name!
I want to play, but this ice is insane,
Ice gives winter a bad name, bad name!
Ice gives winter…a bad name!
