Lyrics Red House Painters

Red House Painters

Mother

The way the street looked dim and polluted

So have felt when I walked upon the way

The air seemed gray fog diluted

So do I feel when I'm breathed upon

Ominous head spoke, you ain't so good

Poorly the sow joked, trashed and words muttered

I want to be mothered

I want you to give attention to my belly button

Mother, I want to have

Body pins stuck in my ears

And drown away the endless days

Ridding soon the troubled ways

Embedded down with a warm frown

In a wrong and impure dream

Anchored down with a mermaid

In sound halcyon sea, lure me in her salt

Liquid canyon far beneath, my mother savior

With her goddess touch brushes hands through my hair
