MotherOh Mein Papa

The word you learn to love (The disapproval that you hate)
Thats Mother (From Mother)
They teach you to respect... (Makes you always want to please)
Mother (Mother)
The one who keeps you warm (The one who keeps you warm)
And shelters you from harm (And shelters you from harm)
Watch out shell stunt your mind (Shell open up your mind)
Til you emulate her kind (To make you good and make you kind)
Is that Mother? (Mother...)
Downstairs I dont know (Downstairs I dont know)
If its the springs in her bed (Why I feel safe in my bed)
Or her joints I hear (When I know Im alone)
Creaking overhead (She must be watching overhead)
Mother!(Mother...)
Shell twist the words you speak (Shell kiss and say goodbye)
If she thinks youre near escape (If you want to go away)
Mother (Mother)
So she clutches at her brood (So she gathers up her brood)
And sits across its face (And smiles into their face)
She sucks up all its energy (She beams down vital energy)
And smothers their last breath (She gave us our first breath )
Oh Mother!(Mother...)
The thing you grow to hate (The love you wont forget)
