Gommorah (A Nursery Rhyme) Lyrics

Come on down and see me
You know my name well
I'm everything you read
I've got it to sell
The ladies on my street
Aren't there for their health

Welfare checks don't pave
The road to much wealth

The cat and the rat things
Go bump through the night
They'll come do a dance thing
Just turn off your light


Gommorah is a nursery rhyme
You won't find in the book
It's written on your city's face
Just stop and take a look

A story of pure hate
With pictures between
A tale for your kids
To help them to dream
Sleep now little children
Don't lose your way
'Cos tourists don't see things
In the clearness of day

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
