Doughnut for a Snowman Lyrics

...so high...

Starts off her day
With a Krispy Kreme doughnut
As sweet as life can get
Runs out to play
With the promising uncles
Who promise her a pet

She likes the good humor man
She likes his song
When everything goes right for her
When everything goes wrong

She turns around
At the heart of the drop beat
To let them all check out
Look what she's found
When the gawkers and squawkers
Exchange their costumes

She loves the good humor man
He says they don't call us that
She'll run like the wind
Through the street scene and hand
A doughnut to her snowman
Doughnut for a snowman
