Bacon Brothers - Mother Fear lyrics

Written by kevin bacon

"kind of exploring the role that fear plays in my life. thanks to trav for the cool lick." kb

She'll wake you in the morning

As she fills your head at night

She'll drop bywithout warning

Just when you thought you were doing all right

You think she's far away in california

But she has never been so near

Mother fear

She was there the day you turned your cheek

She led you from the fight

She was in your throatwhen you couldn't speak

She sings harmony tonight

She knew just were you lived

She brought the sedatives

She brought the whiskey and the beer

Mother fearmother fearmother fear

That peaceful feeling's so deceiving

You check the kids to see they're breathing

And as you watch your house come tumbling down

She stands beside you in the rubble

She'll be the first to recognize the sound

Of the bursting of the bubble

And as you prance and pose

In your new emperor's clothes

She'll get the crowd to laugh and cheer

And here she comes

Mother fearmother fear

Year after year after year
