Scarves Out, the Sparkle Is Back
“Pavements in glitter and puddles turned to glass. Scarves out for the first frost, and a warm groove underneath.”

Lyrics
The pavement's wearing glitter The puddles turned to glass The bus stop's full of mittens And people stopping to laugh A boy skates down the footpath In his sister's sparkling hat The whole street's feeling brand new Because the frost came down like that Wrap it up, wrap it up Wind it twice around Scarves out, the sparkle is back Frost on the rooftops, frost on the track Hands in pockets, steam in the air First cold morning, we're all out there Scarves out, the sparkle is back Toes are tingling, nothing we lack Hot tea waiting at the end of the street Scarves out, the world's a treat The baker opens early With the windows all misted white She hands out bread still steaming Like a small and golden light The postman wears two jumpers The dog wears one blue coat And everyone is humming The same warm little note Wrap it up, wrap it up Wind it twice around Scarves out, the sparkle is back Frost on the rooftops, frost on the track Hands in pockets, steam in the air First cold morning, we're all out there Scarves out, the sparkle is back Toes are tingling, nothing we lack Hot tea waiting at the end of the street Scarves out, the world's a treat Some folks dread the winter But we know how to say hello With a hat pulled down and a grin on top And a crunch of the first white snow Well, not quite snow, but near enough Just a shimmer on the ground We'll take it, we'll keep it And we'll sing it all around Scarves out, the sparkle is back Frost on the rooftops, frost on the track Hands in pockets, steam in the air First cold morning, we're all out there Scarves out, the sparkle is back Toes are tingling, nothing we lack Hot tea waiting at the end of the street Scarves out, the world's a treat Scarves out, scarves out The sparkle is back
