Mother (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

(Translation To: Mutter)

The tears of a crowd of very old children
I string them on a white hair
I throw the wet chain into the air
and wish that I had a mother
no sun shines for me
There was no breast that cried milk
There is a tube that sticks in my throat
I have no navel on my stomach

Mother

I was not allowed to lick any nipples
and there was no fold to hide in
no one gave me a name
fathered in haste and without sperm
I have sworn tonight
For the mother that never gave birth to me
I will send her a sickness
and afterwards let her sink in the river

Mother

An eel lives in her lungs
on my forehead, a birthmark
I remove it with the kiss of a knife
even if it causes me to die

Mother

An eel lives in her lungs
on my forehead, a birthmark
I remove it with the kiss of a knife
even if it causes me to bleed to death

Mother
Oh give me strength

Mother (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Do you remember when I was a baby
Did I cry, did I cry
I only remember the days I was laughing
When you sang me sweet lullabies
When you sand me sweet bye and bye

Sometimes I wonder if you were an angel
Would you fly, would you fly
Or would you just hover right here by my side
Keeping me warm and dry
Keeping me safe by you side

Mother mother won’t fall from grace
Light a room with the lines on your face
And if you were a river run dry
Well I’d sing you sweet bye and bye

All of the birds that land on my window
Sing your name, sing your name
When all of the time I am crying again
About how much the sky likes to rain
When I should be singing your name

And all of the flowers by the side of the road
They whisper your name while they grow
And if you were a river run dry
Well I’d sing you sweet bye and bye

Mother (Letra)

Mother, you had me, but i never had you
I wanted you, you didn’t want me
So i, i just got to tell you
Goodbye, goodbye
Father, you left me, but i never left you
I needed you, you didn’t need me
So i, i just got to tell you
Goodbye, goodbye

Children, don’t do what i have done
I couldn’t walk and i tried to run
So i, i just got to tell you
Goodbye, goodbye

Mama don’t go
Daddy come home

Mother dear you’ll never be my sister
Seek the advice of a solicitor
Mother dear you’ll never be my sister

Show me
Empathy
Californian sensibilities
All my problems spring from my troubled upbringing
We need to go right back to the beginning
Disposessed from the outset
What you need is precisely what you get
Mother dear it should be you that’s sitting here
On this couch.
Ouch.

Mother dear you’ll never be my sister
Seek the advice of a solicitor
Mother dear you’ll never be my sister
On my shoulder you’re a chip
On my foot you’re a blister
Mother dear you’ll never be my sister
Seek the advice of a solicitor
Mother dear you’ll never be my sister

So tell me what am I gonna do
They told me that maybe I could sue
And oh how the many
Were corrupted by the few
So I dance the mambo and the cha cha cha
I run you over in my beautiful car
Dearest darling mummy dearest
We can’t bear to have you near us.

Mother dear you’ll never be my sister
Seek the advice of a solicitor
Mother dear you’ll never be my sister
On my shoulder you’re a chip
On my foot you’re a blister
Mother dear you’ll never be my sister
Seek the advice of a solicitor
Mother dear you’ll never be my sister

The blame lies in the family name
It’s not my fault I did as I was taught
Escape to Mongolia or Timbuktu
I know somehow, somewhere
I’ll be bumping into you

You see, I’m blameless
I had a mother who was shameless
No wonder my life collapsed
See I’m aimless
With all the analysis
I think I’m having a relapse

Mother dear you’ll never be my sister
Seek the advice of a solicitor
Mother dear you’ll never be my sister
On my shoulder you’re a chip
On my foot you’re a blister

Mother dear you’ll never be my sister
Seek the advice of a solicitor
Mother dear you’ll never be my sister
On my shoulder you’re a chip
On my foot you’re a blister

We love you
We do
We’ve taken advice
We may sue

You see I’m blameless
I shall remain nameless
You can’t run away from the past
I know what her game is
But I’ve forgotten what my name is
I’m just too frightened to ask

Tell me what did you expect
What you made is precisely what you get
Precisely what you get
Precisely what you get

Hush, my baby. Baby, don’t you cry.
Momma’s gonna check out all your girlfriends for you.
Momma won’t let anyone dirty get through.

Well, the telephone is ringing
Is that my mother on the phone?
The telephone is ringing
Is that my mother on the phone?
The telephone is screaming
Won’t she leave me alone
The telephone is ringing
Is that my mother on the phone?

Well, every girl I got out with
Becomes my mother in the end
Every girl I go out with
Becomes my mother in the end
Well, I hear my mother calling
But I don’t need her as a friend
Every girl I go out with
Becomes my mother in the end

Oh Oh mother

Oh mother dear please listen
And don’t devour me
Oh mother dear please listen
And don’t devour me
Oh women please have mercy
Let this poor boy be
Oh mother dear please listen
And don’t devour me

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

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
Green limousine for the redhead dancing dancing girl
And when I dance for him
Somebody leave the light on
ust in 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, and 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
He’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 from

I escape into your escape into
our very favorite fearscape
It’s across the sky and across my heart and I
crossed my legs oh my god

First my left foot then my right behind the other
Breadcrumbs lost under the snow

Oo who mother
Oo mother the car is here
Maybe you’ll leave the light on
for the for the for the dancing girl
He’s gonna change my name
Maybe you’ll leave the light
just in case I like the dancing
I can remember where I come come from

And i can hear you calling my name
Your healing hands smooth away the pain
And i can hear you whispering it’ll be alright
You’ll stay until the night breaks into day

You stand beside me you take my hand show the way
You’re here to guide me you give me the strength that i need

Everlasting faith everlasting love is the greatest gift you have
Believing understanding me

Mother (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Over land and over sea
She reaches out to me
weaving and threading the loom
from womb to womb
Slaves and merchants
pilgrims and thieves
felt her hand and charted skies
by following her moon
Mother
Mother
Mother

Some came and built with stone and bone
some planted fields on promised land
and harvested their dreams, then disappeared
As generations lose their memory
I’ll try and remind my heart
and hope that it will set me free
Mother
Mother
Mother

Condemning my true nature
I stood outside of myself
outside of myself
I stood outside
conditioning is what made me
lose sight of myself
lose sight of myself
lose sight

Ravens cry out, tides pull in,
somehow she replenishes
giving birth again
Mother
Mother
Mother…

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Driving down the concrete beams
Looking around and it now seems
Mama earth is nowhere
Gone from your eyes
Hidden in the crust
Of man’s scientific dreams
She is gone

Natural man took her natural face
Made it a strange and alien place
You can’t bear to look
‘cause she ain’t there
Our mother has been raped
And left to die in disgrace
She is gone

This war’s a motherfucker
How many sons will we kill today
On fours little brother
Tell me what the view’s like from the ground

Your love is a killer
Killing all this love in me
We are so full of terror
Vicious kiss your love is longing dee

Plove, love, love will strike you down
Love, love

Where the anger is hot
Where opinion is deep
Understanding is shot is dead is dead is dead
Where the linen is cheap
Where the weapons are not
All the mothers will weep is dead is dead is dead

Will strike you down
Love, love, love will strike you down

We’re drawn to a torture
I can’t take it anymore
On fours little mother
Tell me what the view’s like from the ground

Love, love, love will strike you down
Love, love, love will strike us down
