(Girl)


Is there anybody going to listen to my story
Of how I came about to be in here
My kids said they couldn’t look after me and they were sorry
Now I won’t be getting out again I fear

Ah home
Nursing home

When I think of all the times I tried so hard to leave here
My kids will turn to me and start to cry
And they promise me that they will take me out , I believe them
After all this time, I don't know why

Ah home
Nursing home

It’s the kind of place that leads you to despair
You feel a fool
If you say the cooking’s good, then I’ll know its misunderstood
it’s gruel, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ah home
Nursing home

I was told when I was young that retirement would lead to pleasure?
I didn’t understand it when they said
When you’re in the home there’ll be no more days of leisure?
Will the kids believe it when I’m dead?

Ah home
Nursing home
