Regina Spektor - Mockingbird lyrics
[Regina Spektor - Mockingbird lyrics]
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird
And if that mockingbird don't
Mock real well, well, then
Papa's gonna buy you a freedom bell
Oh, and if that freedom bell don't ring
Papa's gonna buy you a cubic zirconia ring
Oh, and if that cubic
Zirconia ring don't shine
You're gonna give your papa a real hard time
Now ain't you? Ain't you, baby, ain't you?
And if that real hard time don't pass
Papa's gonna get wrinkles all upon his face
And then he'll blend in with
All the other papas then
Screw the whole mockingbird situation
We can't even afford a medical plan
Now can we? Oh, baby, now can we? Mmm-mm, no
This song won't do let's start this over
Let's start this over
Hush, little baby, here comes the sandman
Papa's gonna buy you a medical plan
Oh, and if that medical plan
Don't cover your ass
Papa's gonna buy you a pregnancy test
And if that pregnancy test comes out positive
Well then, girl
I don't know how the hell we're gonna live
Maybe on your bright ideas
Maybe on cigarette butts
Maybe on bubblegum wrappers
Maybe on penalty shots
Ohhh, oh-woo woo woo woo
Woo-woo woo woo, woo woo woo wooooo-wo-o
Woooo-woo woo woo woo woo woooo
Wooo-woo woo woo woooo
Hush, little baby, don't you cry
You know to you your papa would never
Ever lie oh, hush while I sing to
You this crude little lullaby
And I'll get you all that shit one day
One by one, by and by but in the meanwhile
In the mean-mean in the
Mean-mean-mean-mean-mean-mean-meanwhile
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird
Oh, and if that mockingbird don't sing
Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring
A real diamond no cubic nothing
Like in the movies
With that what's her name monroe marilyn
A real, a real diamond hush, hush
A real, a real diamond hush, hush
A real, a real diamond hush, hush
Hush, hush, hush, hush
A real, a real, a real diamond
Hush, hush, hush, hush, hush, hush, hush
Huuush ha hawawawush haaush up hush hush
Shh
Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird
And if that mockingbird don't
Mock real well, well, then
Papa's gonna buy you a freedom bell
Oh, and if that freedom bell don't ring
Papa's gonna buy you a cubic zirconia ring
Oh, and if that cubic
Zirconia ring don't shine
You're gonna give your papa a real hard time
Now ain't you? Ain't you, baby, ain't you?
And if that real hard time don't pass
Papa's gonna get wrinkles all upon his face
And then he'll blend in with
All the other papas then
Screw the whole mockingbird situation
We can't even afford a medical plan
Now can we? Oh, baby, now can we? Mmm-mm, no
