I saw you coming so I got to running Like hell, I could tell that you played for keeps Now I live on a boat that sits on a moat On top of piss river, outside your castle And wind death comes 'round, we all sing, "Oh, what an asshole" He stirs quite the fuss and he cause quite the hassle We all buy black suits as our lives go on mute And meet under the belfry to cry and say sorry And oh my God Mama, I'm scared I know you are, baby I am scared too Do you want to play chess inside my chest? You move, I move You choose, I choose And hoot, hoot, hoot I beg like an owl As I sit on my perch And I stare and I scowl I know I left you But I cannot forget you Now I only know how to harm or upset you See, I came for your love but I stayed for your anger And you rocked me, mama, like a babe in the manger And oh my God Mama, I'm angry I know you are, darling She's angry too And oh my God Mama, at who? Oh, Carrie She's angry at you I tried to pray but I didn't know what to say So I just mumbled some names I said, "I hope they're okay then amen" They were the names of my family and friends Oh, the planet's so lonely and the planet's so cold And if I'm so lucky I'll die when I'm old I pray no disaster, no fight, no rain And I pray that no devil gets inside my brain As the world does its twirl between the moon and the sun Casting clock shadows beyond everyone And the hours devour us As I stare out my window, as I ride this bus In men it goes fast, in men what a blur But I write it just the same or just as it were That feeling in my stomach when the light was low And I get warm in my chest when my heart would slow That feeling in my head when that music played Get dizzy in my soul from the glad song they sang What a dream to have ever felt the air so warm What a dream to have even ever been born And oh my God Oh, mama I love you And oh my God Oh, baby Oh, darling I love you too And I know that you know that I do I saw you coming So I got to running But next time I'll stay put Mmm, mmm, mmm
