Hello parents and guardians
We’ve called to talk to you again
Because a storm has come without warning
Left its snow while we were sleeping
And JC schools will be closing for the day
At home we’ll stay
Within the sound of snow day

In restless dreams kids hopes have grown 
Icy streets no bus can roam
‘Neath the darkness of a cold black sky
Kids wake their parents yelling “Snow! Oh My!”
Then they’re out the door while older siblings cue Fortnite
It’s a wondrous sight
And feel the sound of snow day

And in the morning light we saw
One thousand children, maybe more
Kids rejoicing without working
Teachers smiling without speaking
Admin writing songs and posting them to share
Like people care
This is the sound of snow day

By noon wet clothing piles the floor
Parents yelling “shut the door!”
Kids do some chores and don’t sleep till noon
Mix in some math and reading, and cartoons
Enjoy these memories cause soon, it’ll be back to Oregon rain
Echoed in the homes of snow day

And by evening parents prayed
Another call would not be made
And the snowmen line the streets at night
Children snow dancing with delight

And above all, be safe, be warm, and enjoy this family day
And so we’ll say
Here’s to the sound of snow day
