Mama who bore me
Mama who gave me
No way to handle things
Who made me so sad
Mama, the weeping
Mama, the angels
No sleep in heaven, or bethlehem
Mama who bore me
Mama who gave me
No way to handle things
Who made me so bad
Mama who bore me
Mama who gave me
No way to handle things
Who made me so bad
Mama, the weeping
Mama, the angels
No sleep in heaven, or bethlehem
Some pray that one day
Christ will come a'-callin'
They light a candle
And hope that it glows
And some just lie there
Crying for him to come and find them
But when he comes they don't know how to go
God, i dreamed there was an angel
Who could hear me through the wall
As i cried out, like, in latin "this is so not life at all
Help me out, out of this nightmare."
Then i heard her silver call
She said, "just give it time, kid. i come to one and all."
She said, "give me that hand, please, and the itch you can't control.
Let me teach you how to handle all the sadness in your soul.
Oh, we'll work that silver magic,
Then we'll aim it all the wall."
She said, "love may make you blind, kid, but i wouldn't mind at all."
It's the bitch of living
The bitch, just the bitch
With nothing but your hand
Just the bitch, yeah
Just the bitch of living
As someone you can't stand
See, each night it's, like, fantastic
Tossing, turning without rest
'cause my days at the piano
With my teacher and her breasts
And the music's, like, the one thing
I can't even get at all
And those breasts!
I mean, god, please, just let those apples fall
It's the bitch of living
The bitch, just the bitch
With nothing but your hand
Just the bitch, yeah
Just the bitch of living
With nothing going on, nothing going on
Just the bitch of living
Do they think we want this?
Oh, who knows!
Yeah, you're fucked all right - and all for spite
You can kiss your sorry ass goodbye
Totally fucked - will they mess you up?
Well you know they're gonna try
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
