Blanche - So Long Cruel World lyrics

rate me

Folks, you'd think I'd be happy and delighted<br />

'Cause all my dreams are finally coming true<br />

But did I mention all my dreams are nightmares<br />

In my head, I feel a storm's about to brew<br />

<br />

The clouds are hovering a mean blue and purple<br />

No sunshine in my life anymore<br />

The spirits are creeping 'round every corner<br />

I'm petrified but I'm unlocking my door<br />

<br />

So long cruel world<br />

(So long cruel world)<br />

Dear Mother goodbye<br />

(Dear Mother goodbye)<br />

<br />

These are the only words I say before I die<br />

I want an old man priest and a stormy day<br />

But don't waste money on a casket<br />

I don't deserve a grave<br />

<br />

Just cut out my organs<br />

Give 'em to the barely living<br />

Turn my body into ashes<br />

And pray my soul's forgiven<br />

<br />

So long cruel world<br />

(So long cruel world)<br />

Oh me, oh my<br />

(Oh me, oh my)<br />

<br />

Time is come to pay for what I've done<br />

So goodbye, goodbye<br />

<br />

I hear the crackling of the thunder<br />

And though my name's not on the list<br />

I'll sport a sharkskin and a splash of aqua vulva<br />

I'll do a dance of death, give me that kiss<br />

<br />

So long cruel world<br />

(So long cruel world)<br />

Oh me, oh my<br />

(Oh me, oh my)<br />

<br />

Oh lo, oh lo, oh lo<br />

(Oh lo, oh lo, oh lo)<br />

Oh lee, oh lee<br />

(Goodbye goodbye)<br />

<br />

So long cruel world<br />

Oh me, oh my<br />

The time is come to pay for what I've done<br />

So goodbye, goodbye
