Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Do you wanna build a snowman?
Come on let's go and play
I never see you anymore come out the door it's like you've gone away
We used to be best buddies but now we're not, I wish you would tell me why!
Do you wanna build a snowman, it doesn't have to be a snowman!
(Go away Anna!) Ok bye!

Do you wanna build a snowman or ride are bikes around the halls?
I think some company is overdue I've started talking to the pictures on the walls.
(Hang in there jones!)
It gets a little lonely, all these empty rooms
Just watching the hours tick by!!!
(Tik tok tik tok tik tok tik tok)

Elsa, please I know your in there
people are asking where you been they say have courage and I'm trying to
I'm right out here for you just let me in!!!
We only have eachother
It's just you and me




What are we going to do?
Do you wanna build a snowman?

Overall Meaning

The song "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?" from the movie Frozen has several layers of emotions attached to its fascinating lyrics. The song is a close representation of the relationship between sisters Anna and Elsa. The song portrays Anna's desperate attempts to rekindle the bond they once shared before Elsa withdrew herself. Anna's efforts to be with her sister are denied, and the continuous 'Do you want to build a snowman?' seems to represent her overwhelming frustration and sadness.


The opening chorus "Do you wanna build a snowman?" is a sort of an invitation to Elsa to come out of her shell and join Anna in her playtime. The first verse is focused on how Anna feels abandoned and neglected by the person she once used to call her best friend. The tone of the verse is sad, and it shows how Anna is yearning for her sister's attention. The second verse portrays Anna's troubled state when she is stuck in her castle room and has nothing to do. She talks to the pictures on the wall and hopes for someone to come to her rescue from this loneliness.


The final verse is a desperate plea from Anna to Elsa, asking her to come back into her life. The song indicates the pain of being separated from a loved one, and the longing to rebuild the relationship before it's too late. The song's lyrics serve as the perfect reminder of how essential it is to cherish the close bonds between siblings and never take them for granted.
