Tracy Bonham - Mother Mother

Mother mother how's the family?


I'm just calling to say hello.

How's the weather? how's my father?

Am I lonely? heavens no.

Mother mother are ya listening? just a phone call to ease your mind.

Life is perfect, never better, distance making the heart grow fond.



When you sent me off to see the world,

were you scared that I might get hurt?

Would I try a little tobacco,

would I keep on hiking up my skirt?



I'm hungry,

I'm dirty,

I'm losing my mind...

Everything's fine!



I'm freezing,

I'm Starving,

I'm Bleeding death...

Everything's fine!



Yeah, I'm working, making money, I'm just starting to build a name.

I can feel it, around the corner, I could make it any day.

Mother mother can you hear me, sure I'm sober, sure I'm sane.

Life is perfect, never better, still your daughter, still the same.



If I tell you what you want to hear,

will it help you to sleep well at night?

Are you sure that I'm your perfect dear,

now just cuddle up and sleep tight.



I'm hungry,

I'm dirty,

I'm losing my mind...

Everything's fine!



I'm freezing,

I'm starving,

I'm bleeding to death...

Everything's fine!



I miss you,

I love you.

Ryan Adams - Dirty Rain

 Dirty Rain-

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-Zcwdsl9fc


Last time I was here, it was rainin'

It ain't raining anymore

The streets were drowning, the waters waning

All the ruins were washed ashore

Now I'm just lookin' through the rubble

Tryin' to find out who we were

Last time I was here, it was rainin'

It ain't rainin' anymore.


Last time I was here, you were waiting

You're not waiting anymore.

The window's broke and the smoke's escaping...

All the books scattered across the floor.

And the church bells ringing through the sirens,

And your coat was full of bullet holes.

Last time I was here, you were waiting....

You ain't waiting anymore.

So

May the wind blow, may the moonlight know your name

So

Let the needle move the record 'round


'Til the walls cave in

And you and I are out there dancin' in the dirty rain



Last time I was here, it was rainin'

Like *you ain't never seen it rain

And your eyes were filled with terror and the smoke from the gasoline

As the stars exploded with gunfire....

I saw you smilin' just before....

Last time I was here, you were cryin'

You're not cryin' anymore.



So

May the wind blow, may the moonlight know your name

So

Let the needle move the record 'round

'Til the walls cave in

And you and I are out there dancin' in the dirty rain


Mmmm in the dirty rain.....

In the dirty rain.... mmm.....
