Nursey, Nursey

[Verse 1]
All the skirts of the night are ruffled and torn
Valentinos are painting your mirrors black
In the eye of the glass, the wine makes you blind
The nurse administers the final lash

[Verse 2]
From the cripple's cupboard, your lover doth creep
Both his hands are tied to the lid of your bed
From his oversized pocket, a newspaper hangs
The nurse makes a list of all that's been said

[Chorus]
Oh, nursey nursey you cry so low
Take me in and don't let me go
But teach my lover patiently
Oh, nursey nursеy please take mе

[Verse 3]
From the wide-open door, a picture of screams
All the orchestra turns to look down the hall
A painting crashes from the wall to the floor
The nurse hums a tune as she hears you call

[Chorus]
Oh, nursey nursey you cry so low
Take me in and don't let me go
But teach my lover patiently
Oh, nursey nursey please take me

[Bridge]
The violins echo in the cup of your ear
And spill down your cheek as the nurse hovers near

[Verse 4]
Your lover like snow on the white marbled floor
Kisses the doctor as he fills in a form
While a youth dressed as winter stands next in the line
The nurse with a smile makes sure that you're warm

[Chorus]
Oh, nursey nursey you cry so low
Take me in and don't let me go
But teach my lover patiently
Oh, nursey nursey please take me

[Chorus]
Nursey nursey you cry so low
Take me in and don't let me go
But teach my lover patiently
Oh, nursey nursey please take me

[Chorus]
Oh nursey nursey you cry so low
Please take me in and don't let me go
But teach my lover patiently
Oh nursey nursey please take me
