James - Gold Mother lyrics
One body in my mother's belly
Chinese dolls, box in boxes.
How do you sail the ship from the bottle?
How do you sail the ship from the bottle?
Heart of gold. Heart of gold. Heart of gold.
Gold, gold mother. Gold, gold, gold mother.
I can see the head now.
Between her legs now.
Purple headed alien.
Water logged old man.
In the blood silence.
In the blood silence.
Silence. Silence;
Cry for me mother. Cry for me my mother. Crimean mother. Cry me another.
My feet and hands won't work!
My feet and hands won't work!
In my baby's body
My brand new baby's body.
I'll suck my fingers red.
I'll suck my fingers red.
In my baby's body.
My brand new baby's body.
I can see the head now.
Between her legs now.
Purple headed alien.
Water logged old man.
In the blood silence.
In the blood silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Shut up.
In the bright lights, and harsh sounds, there's a man
In green ceremonial robes and a mask, dipping a straw through your nose.
Mouthwash of meconium. Lungs full of meconium.
Heart full of meconium.
Meconium.
Meconium.
Chinese dolls. Box in boxes.
Chinese dolls. Box in boxes.
I'll go out the same way I came in
Chinese dolls. Box in boxes.
And everything you touch.
And everything you love.
And everything you touch
Turns to gold.
As precious as,
As rich as,
As dear as,
As strong as,
As hard as
Gold.
Mother
Past the boundaries of all pain.
You journey to the edge of death, in search of a child.
Gold mother there's only one.
Gold mother and she's mine.
She's all mine.
Shut up. Let's hear it.
Shut up
