Nightingale

Nobody loves me
I start digging a hole in the ground
Soon as the sun goes down
Soon as the stars come out

Nobody cares
Filled a wooden box with a red nail
Soon as the moon does rise
Soon as the nightingale cries

If anybody wants to starve me
Then keep the moon out of the sky
And if anybody cares
Then tell the nightingale not to cry

Nobody wants me
I'll put on my fanciest dress
Soon enough all that will be left
Will be a song from a nightingale's nest
