We tried to sleep up in the banks of snow 
 But soon discovered it was far too cold 
 So we then retreated into town 
 To ﬁnd a place where there was level ground

Oh oh Switzerland 
 Youʼve taken way my breath now once again 
 Youʼve left me with a sense of compassion 
 For the ones who 
 Cant pick them selves up off the ground 

 Oh Switzerland 
 I never thought id have you as a friend 
 I'm praying it was not at all pretend 
 I need you now 
 To help pick me up from off the ground

Our drinks were hardly worth the price we paid 
 But we thanked God for them anyways and 
 With five minutes left we broke our backs 
 To spend more money than either of us had
