Token depression tune

lyrics

Used to be the sweetest girl in town
Now your mockingbird don’t sing like it used to
Traded your diamond ring for some hand-me-downs
Said it wouldn’t really shine like you wanted it to

Could’ve been my baby all along
Now you’re going to find a man who’ll better suit you
I would’ve loved you forever more
Now I’m lying in bed – every night, waiting to hold you

Hush my girl – don’t you say another word to that mockingbird
Hush my girl – if your diamond ring cannot sing,
Then your mockingbird will

Had you diamond wrapped around in sheets,
In the finest satin – and came over,
You couldn’t help but keep,
Yourself from holding on,
Now you’re gone, and now you’re gone

Hush my girl – don’t you say another word to that mockingbird
Hush my girl – since that diamond cannot sing,
Then your mockingbird will

Oh, it seems we have a problem:
You’re depressed but you won’t admit it!
All your friends seem to have trouble with
The thought of you being so sick.
And we know that it’s a problem, but,
Frankly we know that isn’t going to work out so,
Everybody’s down on themselves while
You’re stuck feeling sorry for yourself….

Hush my girl – don’t you say another word to that mockingbird
Hush my girl – if that diamond ring will not sing,
Then your mockingbird will
You used to be the sweetest girl in town
Now your mockingbird don’t sing like it used to
So hush my girl - if your diamond ring cannot sing,
Then your mockingbird will
