Mama, why did you do it?


Mama, who drove you to it?

Was it the pigs in gray suits persecuting you?


Uncivil servants, unconcerned that's how they frighten you?


Life is nothing much to lose

It's just so lonely here without you





Mama, why did you do it?

Mama, who drove you to it?


Spare, priggish money-men who scared the life out of you


Bailiffs with bad breath, I will slit their throats for you, oh

Life is nothing much to lose


It's just so lonely here without you, Mama




Life is nothing much to lose


It's just so lonely here without you so


We're gonna run to you

We're gonna come to you


We're gonna lie down beside you, Mama




We're gonna be with you


We're gonna join you


We're gonna lie down beside you, Mama




And we will be safe and sheltered in our graves


We'll come before you and we will kiss you

By way of one final hug, Mama, oh
