Mary is Mary

We left a 'maybe' for the cold heart

When they found a body in my backyard

So leave for the country just like you did

But he's not in the country, look how you live

But oh, high and mighty, what do you know?

Well, there is no great eye on the sparrow

And one head is lesser than the two heads

But we know the things that go unsaid

And I'm left with a stranger in my likeness

Still sleeping in my raincoat or my sundress

Oh, sleeping giant, why do you rest

Behind the eyes of who I love the best?

Well, Mary is Mary and I'm not

But what good does she have

That I haven't got?

Oh, high and mighty, what is your guess?

Can we learn to live with so much less?

We say that we end where we all go

But, oh, high and mighty, what do you know?
