When the Bough Breaks |
| Wind up here is getting stiff |
| Hits the branches, sends them adrift |
| The cradle rocks, the cradle sways |
| Sends the baby into a nauseous daze |
| Who sets a bassinet up in a tree? |
| That’s one for you my friend, not for me |
| Here comes that creaking, cracking sound |
| As every single thing comes tumbling down |
| When the bough breaks I only hope I got a nice soft place to fall |
| I hope it’s quiet, and there’s nobody there to hear my feeble call |
| When the bough breaks, the branch’s not the only thing thats gonna go |
| If I’m still concious, I’ll pick the pieces up and slowly stumble home |
| Branches click like castanets |
| Like a box of Milkbones that’s been upset |
| Everyone stands thunderstruck |
| Too late the firestation sends a truck |
| People stand around dumb with fright |
| Cover childrens' eyes, prevent the sight |
| Unwilling acrobat, unlikely trapeeze |
| When the bough breaks I only hope I got a nice soft place to fall |
| I hope it’s quiet, and there’s nobody there to hear my feeble call |
| When the bough breaks, the branch’s not the only thing thats gonna go |
| If I’m still concious, I’ll pick the pieces up and slowly stumble home |
