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?
