In and out and in and out again
In and out and in and out again


And where are you now
Oh, Mother of the world


While we feed from your hands
And we drink from your filth and your oil


So send them down
To scrape and suck the soil


Keep us safe inside
Your damp and rusty coil


In and out and in and out again
In and out and in and out again


Mother's son
Mother of senseless things


Mother come
Kill time as it begins
