Grandfather's Nursery Lyrics
This used to be a garden
now it's a national tragedy Oh, lady of glasshouses where is the flower that will cover the stench of the city? Well, it's lying in tatters amongst cellophane wrappers And I have to get out of this nursery Yeah, that would be a first for me And maybe I will find her and lay down beside her in fields of green and wait for the rain. This used to be a forest now it's a whiskey distillery Oh, lady of glasshouses where is the drink that will bring back my senses to me? Well, I searched for the tree that she mentioned to me But it's no good 'cos they all look the same You see I never learnt the names at school And maybe I'll find her and lay down beside her in fields of green and wait for the rain. This used to be a playground now it's your grandfather's nursery Oh, lady of glasshouses show me the plant that I can bring back my true love to me Well, she sailed down the river now I long to go with her I must find her before she reaches the sea Oh, it's the end for me Oh, maybe I'll find her and lay down beside her and plant a seed and wait for the rain And here comes the rain And here comes the rain And here comes the rain Here comes the rain Here comes the rain Yeah, here comes the rain Here comes the rain Here comes the rain And here comes the rain Here comes the rain Here comes the rain Yeah, here comes the rain Here comes the rain Here comes the rain Here comes the rain Here comes the rain Here comes the rain Yeah, here comes the rain Here comes the rain Here comes the rain And here comes the rain
