Nipped In The Bud

from 2014 by Phil McMillion

/

lyrics

sally was young, full of vinegar
had her whole life in front of her
she got addicted to crack and never looked back
now she sucks her thumb and whimpers

edwardo worked hard, blood, tears and sweat
but financially went deep into debt
took a loan from a shark, who shot him in the dark
now he quivers and wants to forget

[chorus]
lives nipped in the bud
before they could blossom
they went thud, and fell in the mud
now they play dead like a possum.

jill married an older man
who had a stroke just as they began
she waits hand and foot, all her dreams kaput
as she changes her hubby's bed-pan.

billy - immature and smarmy
he went up and joined the army
he was just a young pup, got his legs blown up,
now he sits in a corner with a barbie

[repeat chorus]

they couldn't catch a lucky break
lives ruined for heavens sake
they are all on their own
they are in the phantom zone

[instr, repeat chorus 2x]
