Balmy Or Frigid
It's moderating, yee haw it's warming a bit
Finally it's getting above zero
Just a while ago thought 5 was freezing
Now it's balmy from a few days ago
In comparison temps can feel warm or cold
Depending on what we're accustomed to
Fifty can feel downright damn balmy or frigid
Really not much us guys can do
Go with the flow, that's what I always say
At fifty in the fall wear a coat
At fifty in spring strip down to your underpants
Coz fifty's balmy, no joke
So there you have it, that's my take on things
Humans are hard to comprehend
Hard to try to figure us modern guys out
It'll drive you around the bend
