10000 MANIACS lyrics : "My Mother the War"

she borders the pavement
flanks avenues
the parades pass

white glove attended by

my mother the war


she'll raise a shaft
lift a banner

toss a rose

my mother the war


she knows every neighbor
chats at their doors

compare
econosize electric appliances
come share tea

and a seat by my
cradle with


my mother the war

forsaken vigil

three years each tour
hands of God enfold him
prayed mother of the war

haunt a doorway
beg a postman
is there word

for mother the war

5 black stars


in bitter defiance
she's spitting the corps

wet a brood
short league for combat


my mother the war

well acquainted

with sorrow
with grief


my mother the war

folded lace

carrion and
blood soaked robes
folded lace

carrion
blood soaked
shroud


my mother the war
