Mother

Go, go, go, go now
Out of the nest, it's time
Go, go, go now
Circus girl without a safety netHere, here now don't cry
You raised your hand for assignment
Tuck those ribbons under
Your helmet and be a good soldierFirst my left foot then my right
Behind the other
Pantyhose running
In the coldMother the car is here
Somebody leave the light on
Green Limousine for the redhead
Dancing, dancing girlAnd when I dance for him
Somebody leave the light on
Just in, just in case I like the dancing
I can remember where I come fromI 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 and don't you even try
The phone has been disconnectedDripping with blood and with time
And with your advice
Poison me
Against the moonMother the car is here
Somebody leave the light on
Blood chariot for the redhead
Dancing, dancing girlHe's gonna change my name
Maybe you'll leave the light on
Just in, just in case I like the dancing
I can remember where I come fromI escape into your escape into
Our very favorite fearscape
It's across the sky and across my heart
And I cross my legs oh my GodFirst my left foot then my right
Behind the other
Breadcrumbs lost
Under the snowMother, mother the car is here, here
Maybe, maybe you'll leave the light on
Father, father, father dancing girl
He's gonna change my nameMaybe you'll leave the light
Just in case I like the dancing
I can remember where I come, come, fromMother, mother, mother
