The Seasons Game - January

I saw some flower shots pushing up through the snow
and I realized
that Swedish seasons play poker with mother Nature
about who gets to be in charge

So with the snow covering still green plants
and new-born ones pushing through the white cold
I'm sure
that Winter is the best one at bluffing

And I'm sure the only thing they have to bet
is months, weeks, days
and clothes.
and mother Nature is since long
in just her underwear.

Winter sits there in his coat
Summer didn't really start out clothed
Autumn wears too little and too much at the same time
just to stay in style
and no one's seen Spring since the last hand.

Although mother Nature's been losing since the night began
they never try to push her out
She goes and gets Spring
who's wearing mascara stains down her face
and goosebumps on her skin

Because if mother Nature truly lost
it'd be such a sausage-fest
even if Spring has tits
oh yes, Winter snickers
"she is budding, that's for sure."
