Mother lyrics

Go go go go now

Out of the nest

It's time

Go go go now

Circus girl without a safety net

Here here now

Don't cry

You raised your hand for the assignment

Tuck those ribbons under your helmet

Be a good soldier

First my left foot

Then my right behind the other

Pantyhose

Running in the cold

Mother the car is here

Somebody leave the light on

Black Chariot for the redhead

Dancing dancing girl

And when I dance for him

Somebody leave the light on just in case

I like the dancing

I can remember where I come from

I walked into your dream

And now I've forgotten how to dream my own dream

You are the clever one aren't you

Brides in veils for you

We told you all of our secrets

All but one

So don't you even try

The phone has been disconnected

Dripping with blood

And with time

And with your advice

Poison me against the moon

Mother the car is here

Somebody leave the light on

Black Chariot for the redhead

Dancing dancing girl

And when I dance for him

Somebody leave the light on just in case

I like the dancing

I can remember where I come from

I escape into your escape

Into our very favorite fearscape

It's across the the sky

And across my heart

And I cross my legs

Oh my God

First my left foot

Then my right behind the other

Breadcrumbs lost under the snow

Mother

Mother the car is here

Somebody leave the light on

Somebody leave the light on just in case

I like the dancing

Mother
