No Time For Nursery Rhymes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
Grandma's gonna buy you a mockingbird
And if that mockingbird don't sing
Grandma's gonna buy you a golden ring
And if that golden ring turns brass
Grandma's gonna buy you a lookin' glass
And if that lookin' glass gets broke
Grandma's gonna buy you a billy goat
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
Grandma's gonna buy you a mockingbird
Let's drink a drink to the dreamer
Let's drink to the innocent child
Gone are the days of games in the streets
Raggy-assed and running wild
Innocence now is history
It's a word that can't be used
Turned on itself as a weapon
To prey on the confused
They say dreams change as you grow up
I can only ask you how
The ambitions I held in my childhood
Are the same I'm holdin' now
There ain't no time
There ain't no time
Raggy-assed and running wild
There ain't no time
No time
No time for nursery rhymes
(No stories to be told)
No time for nursery rhymes
(All that glitters isn't gold)
You need to find out what you want
You can't put your life on hold
Now there's no time for nursery rhymes
(No stories to be told)
Put away the thoughts of childish things
So often it is said
In maturity there lies the key
For the door through which you tread
And I wish things, they didn't change
And the clocks ain't gonna stand still
'Cause I felt so much less pressure then
Than I ever think I will
They say dreams change as you grow up
I can only ask you how
The ambitions I held in my childhood
They're the same I'm holding now
There ain't no time
There ain't no time
Raggy-assed, running wild
There ain't no time
No time
No time for nursery rhymes
(No stories to be told)
No time for nursery rhymes
(All that glitters isn't gold)
You need to find out what you want
You can't put your life on hold
Now there's no time for nursery rhymes
(No stories to be told)
There ain't no time
There ain't no time
Raggy-assed, running wild
There ain't no time
No time
No time for nursery rhymes
(No stories to be told)
No time for nursery rhymes
(All that glitters isn't gold)
You need to find out what you want
You can't put your life on hold
Now there's no time for nursery rhymes
(No stories to be told)
