In Dylan Thomas' book "A Child's Christmas In Wales" there is a passage
"Auntie Hannah, who had got on to the parsnip wine, sang a song about Bleeding Hearts and Death , and then another in which she said her heart was like a Bird's Nest ; and then everybody laughed again; and then I went to bed."

This would be middle class Swansea,1920s.
Can anyone help identify the songs?



Not?Si Kahn nor the one done by a Serbian punk band Goblini
"...I?m climbing up the barricades in defense of evil
My heart is like a bird?s nest
In my soul snakes are tearing the chains..."
