Don't Cry

Hush now, don't cry
Mama's gonna sing you a lullaby
I won't sooth you
With words or my breast
Instead I'll use material things
Oh yes, my baby, I've got you a diamond ring

And if you don't want that
Cause it's a choking hazard
I'll buy you a mirror to look into
You can barely hold your head up
But frankly I am fed up
With trying to find ways to comfort you

Cause I've got all the money in the world
But I can't use my love to comfort you
All the money in the world
But I can't stop myself from being so blue

Hush now, don't cry
Mama's singing you a lullaby
I will whisk away the tears
Caught in your throat
By buying you an old distinguished billy goat
And if you don't want a goat
Stomping around
I'll buy you a bird that always sings
And if you don't want either of those
I don't know what to do
Because you didn't want the fucking ring

Cause I've got all the money in the world
But I can't use my love to comfort you
All the money in the world
But I can't stop myself from being so blue

Hush now, don't cry
Mama's trying to sing you a lullaby
I've got the coolest thing
You've ever seen around
It's a cart and bull that will most certainly fall down

Hush little baby, don't say a word
If you want a different animal I'll buy you a whole herd
Hush little baby, don't say a word
I would do anything to please you

Cause I've got all the money in the world
But I can't use my love to comfort you
All the money in the world
But I can't stop myself from being so blue

All the money in the world but I can't, I can't
All the money in the world but I can't give myself to you

Ooooh, oooh, ooh, ooh, ooooh ooooh oooh oooooh

Hush now, don't cry
Mama's singing you a lullaby
