Nursery Rhyme versuri

Nursery Rhyme lyrics by Kelsey Waldon

Verse 1
Woke up this mornin’ with a beat in my heart
Considerin’ the opposite, you could say that’s a start
Like a seed that ain’t sprouted, like a tree that’s gone burled
Darlin’, it’s a cruel, cruel world

Chorus
I don’t wish for pain and I don’t dream of war
When will it all end? What are we killin’ for?
The man takes and he takes, and he only wants more
It’s evil, plain evil, to the core

Verse 2
How can you climb when you ain’t got a dime?
Workin’ your life away ‘til you die
Can’t pay what you owe ‘em, not in this lifetime
Darlin’, it’s a nursery rhyme

Chorus
I don’t wish for pain and I don’t dream of war
I am callin’ for peace, what are we killin’ for?
They broke Hell wide open, let the dark fire unfurl
Darlin’, it’s a cruel, cruel world

Outro
Like a twisted tilt-a-whirl
Like a sour ice cream swirl
Darlin’, it’s a cruel—
Cruel world
