Jim Jonsin - Merry Go Round lyrics

[Intro] Merry, merry, merry go round I don't want to see you down I don't want to see you frown Merry go round... Look... [Verse 1] Summer day Bobby and this girl would wake up every summer day This boy and girl had nothing, they were runaways So in love that now all they wanted was pain and so it came Never had a silver spoon present in the past Now at last, the spoon is present and so the boy wet it Told her bring him a slab, a cotton swab, and a match And told her one day they'll fly across the world and have a wedding Like “baby I have a plan, come with me to this place Baby give me your hand, now flip it give me a vein Baby take off your belt, we'll use it as a restraint” She sees that it starts to melt, he reaches inside a case Fills the needle with food, flicks the needle with haste Brings the needle to her, she isn't right in the face The boy can tell that she's scared, he says “I love you, okay?” Then shoves it into her arm and says “how the f** does that taste baby?!” [Hook] Merry, merry, merry go round I don't want to see you down I don't want to see you frown Merry go round... Merry, merry, merry go round I don't want to see you down I don't want to see you frown Merry, merry, merry go round [Verse 2] Her dress drops, her head drops Swiggin' out of a whiskey bottle, he just watches But he was not Bobby, see Bobby had joined the army Been gone for a couple months now she's messin with everybody Everyone of the dealers, everyone hears her squealing Trading p**y for product, she did anything for that feeling But then she started that feeling, early morning she's kneelin' In front of the toilet look at her belly there's no concealing That she's expecting a child This woman is living foul She's only 20 years old And hardly can even smile Ultrasound shows a baby that's barely over a pound Sold everything in her house just trying to score an ounce News of her baby's father was that he died in the war Now that syringe is all that keeps her alive anymore No mattress, so her and her child dyin' on the floor As a letter's at the door reading: “I'll be home tomorrow. love, Bobby” [Hook] Merry, merry, merry go round I don't want to see you down I don't want to see you frown Merry go round... Merry, merry, merry go round I don't want to see you down I don't want to see you frown Merry, merry, merry go round [Verse 3] Knockin' at the door but doesn't get an answer Bobby's nervous, his heart starts to beat faster He hasn't talked to his girl in so long She sold his phone for a hit, damn how he wish that he could hear her laughter But his drug hit her like a cancer And he forgot ‘cause he had left and cleaned his act up Pa**enger seat in his Acura got a picture of ‘em kissing Under the words "happily ever after” He walks into the house, it's a f**in' disaster Every step he takes his shoe crushes a capsule Holds his breath, he knows what he smells isn't natural Looks down, it's the body of the queen of his castle “Baby please, baby please!!!" "Wake up!!!” He screams on his knees and he sees her hands around her stomach Inside was a child And realizes it was his… *gun co*k* *gun shot* Summer day, An entire family died on that summer day ‘cause a facade made a girl give her love away But those were Bobby's consequences that he had to pay Love is pain [Hook] Merry, merry, merry go round I don't want to see you down I don't want to see you frown Merry go round... Merry, merry, merry go round I don't want to see you down I don't want to see you frown Merry, merry, merry go round
