So Long Cruel World Songtext

von Blanche

Folks you'd think I'd be happy and delighted
Cause all my dreams are finally coming true
But did I mention all my dreams are nightmares
In my head I feel a storm about to brew

The clouds are hovering a mean blue and purple
No sunshine in my life anymore
The spirits are creepin' 'round every corner
I'm petrified but I'm unlockin' my door

So long cruel world
[so long cruel world]
Dear mother goodbye
[dear mother goodbye]

These are the only words I say before I die
I want an old man priest
And a stormy day
But don't waste money on a casket

I don't deserve a grave
Just cut out my organs
Give 'em to the barely livin'
Turn my body into ashes
And pray my soul's forgiven

So long cruel world
[so long cruel world]
Oh me oh my
[oh me oh my]

Time is come to pay for what I've done
So goodbye
Goodbye

I hear the cracklin' of the thunder
And though my name's not on the list
I'll sport a sharkskin and a splash of aqua velva
I'll do a dance of death, give me that kiss

So long cruel world
[so long cruel world]
Oh me oh my
[oh me oh my]

Oh lo oh lo oh lo
[oh lo oh lo oh lo]
Oh lee oh li
[goodbye goodbye]

So long cruel world
Oh me oh my
The time is come to pay for what I've done
So goodbye
Goodbye
