[Intro: Finnish-accented male MC over a kantele riff] No niin, it's minus twenty-two, and the lake is lookin' thin Perkele, open up the sauna door and let the wedding in [Verse 1: Finnish-accented male MC, deadpan and hard over pounding live drums] Wedding by the lake in January, everybody's bets are in Best man's got a hundred euros sayin' I'll be gone by ten Uncle Pekka says I'll bolt, my cousins say I'll hide Even my own mother asked me, "Are you sure about the bride?" Brother, I been sure since summer, I been sure since we were small But they wanna see me shiver, so I'll give 'em that and all Out the sauna, steamin', in my wedding pants and nothin' more Hundred meters through the snow to the hole cut by the shore [Hook: Finnish-accented male MC, full band] You said I'd get cold feet? Brother, look at my toes Blue from the lake, and the whole wedding froze Out the sauna, through the ice, then straight up to the vow Yeah, I got cold feet, and I'm gettin' married now [Verse 2: Finnish-accented male MC, harder, crunchy bass guitar riff] Hundred guests out on the dock, every mitten on a mouth Grandma's crossin' herself twice, and the priest is lookin' south Sisu, that's the word for it, the guts you didn't know And I hit that hole like a cannonball and vanish down below [Pre-Hook: Finnish-accented male MC, underwater bars, the mix sinks under the ice for two bars and bursts back up roaring] Two bars under, quiet green, my heart's a heavy drum Then I come up roarin', perkele, and here the groom has come [Hook: Finnish-accented male MC, full band] You said I'd get cold feet? Brother, look at my toes Blue from the lake, and the whole wedding froze Out the sauna, through the ice, then straight up to the vow Yeah, I got cold feet, and I'm gettin' married now [Verse 3: Finnish-accented male MC, wide awake, kantele and full drums] Walked the aisle in a towel with a beard of frozen white And the bride just started laughin', said, "I knew you'd be alright" Best man paid the hundred, Uncle Pekka paid it twice And my mother took my hand and said, "Your feet are cold as ice" I said, "Mama, that's the joke, see, I got cold feet on the day But it stopped down at the ankle, and the rest of me's okay" Kippis, raise it to the bride, and raise it to the lake 'Cause the only thing that shook today was the ice I had to break [Final Hook: Finnish-accented male MC, full band] You said I'd get cold feet? Brother, look at my toes Blue from the lake, and the whole wedding froze Out the sauna, through the ice, then straight up to the vow Yeah, I got cold feet, and I'm gettin' married now [End]
