Camp movie - The Want Of A Nail lyrics

rate me

<br>

I've been wrong<br>

I had plans so big<br>

But the devil's in the details<br>

I left out one thing<br>

No one to love me<br>

And no one to love<br>

<br>

For the want of a nail (the world was lost)<br>

For the want of a nail (the world was lost)<br>

For the want of a nail (the world was lost)<br>

For the want of a nail (the world was lost)<br>

<br>

For the want of a nail, the shoe was lost<br>

For the want of a shoe, the horse was lost<br>

For the want of a horse, the rider was lost<br>

For the want of a rider, the message was lost<br>

<br>

For the want of a rider, the message was lost<br>

For the want of a message, the battle was lost<br>

For the want of a battle, the war was lost<br>

For the want of a war, the kingdom was lost<br>

<br>

What's all this talk about horses and war?<br>

Put yourself in the place of the man at the forge<br>

And day after day you live a life without love<br>

Til the morning you can't take it anymore<br>

And you don't get up<br>

<br>

Multiply it a billion times<br>

Spread it all around the world<br>

Put the curse of loneliness on every boy and every girl<br>

Until everybody's kickin', everybody's scratchin'<br>

Everything seems to fail,<br>

And it was all for the want of a nail<br>

<br>

<br>
