Melanie Martinez
Rocking Horse (Demo 2)
[Verse 1]
I'm in the process of counting sheep
But they're all so bloody
My hushed little baby still makes a peep
There's a ghost in the nursery
I'm haunted even when you’re never there
And I'm taunted by your teddy bear
Like it's talking and it's asking me
Why you never came home
[Pre-Chorus]
I missed my shower
I miss your cradle
I miss your carriage
I miss carriage
"I miscarriaged
Mi-miscarriaged"
And you never came home
[Chorus]
Back and forth
Back and forth
Move back and forth
Like a rocking horsе
That rocking horse
That your daddy bought you
That you never saw
Goеs back and forth
Back and forth
Back and forth
Move back and forth
Like a rocking horse
That rocking horse
That your daddy bought you
That you never saw
Goes back and forth
[Verse 2]
I'm in the process of apologies
There's a husband who doesn't know that I'm guilty
There's a hushed little secret inside of me
And a ghost in the nursery
Oh honey, you'll never see your son become a star
Or the money you spent on that box of cigars
And I'm sorry you never got to hand them out, out
[Pre-Chorus]
This is for all the horses
Never given a horseman
Never grew to be Porsches
This is for all divorces
That were caused by abortions
Babies having babies
And babies having abortions
[Chorus]
Back and forth
Back and forth
Move back and forth
Like a rocking horse
That rocking horse
That your daddy bought you
That you never saw
Goes back and forth
Back and forth
Back and forth
Move back and forth
Like a rocking horse
That rocking horse
That your daddy bought you
That you never saw
Goes back and forth
[Bridge]
Rocking horse
Rocking horse
Oooh
Back and forth
You never came home
Rocking horse
Rocking horse
Oooh
Back and forth
And you never came home
[Chorus]
Back and forth
Back and forth
Move back and forth
Like a rocking horse
That rocking horse
That your daddy bought you
That you never saw
Goes back and forth
Back and forth
Back and forth
Move back and forth
Like a rocking horse
That rocking horse
That your daddy bought you
That you never saw
Goes back and forth
