Wednesday’S Child

Monday's child is ever smiling
Tuesday's child will play in sun
Wednesday comes with a gun
Thursday tears have just begun
Friday ships are filled with crying

Monday seems so far away now
Tuesday was not bad at all
Wednesday came with a flame
Thursday never be the same
Friday ships are not returning

Monday's child is torn asunder
Tuesday's child is thrown in chains
Wednesday's child used to smile
Thursday's tears are now a Nile
Friday's child is ever burning
