Tropical Ice-land - The Fiery Furnaces

Goat’s head in the deli case

Oh sweet angel-angel-bearded face

Paper maché parade on at night

That’s what you do with no sunlight

In the tropical tropical

Tropical ice-land

Bleak church on a cold tundra

Mountain-glacier-glacier-glacier-stream

Black stone beach and a black death bottle

Is all me and my baby’ll need

In the tropical, tropical

Tropical ice-land

Take intermission at the movies

Freeze outside for one quick smoke

Take a klondike bar from the pop machine

Hey it’s ice cream, no not coke

In the tropical tropical

Tropical ice-land

Let’s meet in Kristiana next summer

Let’s get out before we melt away

I’ve seen enough stray ponies and puffins

To get me through till the end of May

In the tropical tropical

Tropical ice-land
