Spoiled Child Blues

[Verse 1]
Later that same day
When she gathered all her clothes
And put on all her secrets, and her rings
Her heart came undone
With the setting of the sun
And most of all
She knew then, a drink

[Chorus]
What good are dreams that come true
What good is the earth
If they give you the moon
It’s a spoiled child’s blues
When a spoiled child cries
The seven silver ambulances
Waiting outside
Seven silver jets to fly him
High above his size
There’s money in his pocket
And nothing left to buy

[Verse 2]
Have a mercy on the hunger
That keeps our soul alive
And keeps us from
The comfort of our ruin
You shouldn’t be surprised
By the sadness in the eyes
Of those whose prayers
Are answered too soon

[Chorus]
What good are dreams that come true
What good is the earth
If they give you the moon
It’s a spoiled child’s blues
When a spoiled child cries
The seven silver ambulances
Waiting outside
Seven silver jets to fly him
High above the skies
There’s money in his pocket
And nothing left to buy
