Lost In the Woods

Lost in the woods
Are you kidding?
My feet they’re freezing 
We’re lost in the woods!
We’re lost in the woods!

You warned me of mud 
And you certainly didn’t disappoint 
And now there’s even snow
I think I want to go home

Which direction is out
Will anyone hear if we shout
Has the ranger done his rounds
Yes I’m so cold I’m jumping up and down

Lost in the woods
Are you kidding?!
My feet they’re freezing 
We’re lost in the woods!
We’re lost in the woods!

I’m trying to walk in the footprints 
Of others who’ve braved these elements 
And there’s not very many
How far away from the road are we really?

You think you know the way to the trailhead?
I’ve been following all day so what the hey
No internet on our phones out here
So the maps are useless oh dear

Lost in the woods
Are you kidding?
My feet they’re freezing
We’re lost in the woods!
We’re lost in the woods!

Yikes! We really are lost aren’t we?
