Parker Millsap - Quite Contrary

Текст песни

Mary, Mary quite contrary
How’d you get your eyes so scary?
Lost your pocket full of poseys
pawned your rings and cut your roses
Now I see you out struttin' on your corner
Working for a man named Little Jack Horner
Alice, Alice full of malice
got kicked out of her own palace
Tracks in her arm where she followed a rabbit
she picked up all his old bad habits
Steals a curse from little miss mophet
out in the alley learning how to tough it
Ashes, Ashes hit the ground
All grown up and all torn down
Ashes, Ashes hit the ground
All grown up and all torn, said all torn down
Hansel and Gretel heat up the kettle
smelt like burned ol' tires and metal
Hansel played chef, Gretel played dealer
Got a dog played by an old blue heeler
Hey diddle diddle the cats on the moon
and the folks got a lighter underneath the spoon
Ashes, Ashes hit the ground
All grown up and all torn down
Ashes, Ashes hit the ground
All grown up and all torn, said all torn down
Mary, Mary quite contrary
how’d you get your eyes so scary?
Lost your pocket full of poseys
pawned your rings and cut your roses
Now I see you out struttin' on your corner
workin' for a man named a little Jake…
