lyrics

Proud mother kissed her firstborn out the door,
Not nearly knowing she wouldn’t see him anymore,
In that state with that strong strapping stance,
So the statist succumbs to that surreal dance.

What she didn’t see masked by his muscles and his mustered mien,
Was that battered beaten brain just sat there waiting for the rain,
But it was always going to rain,
If not they just cause the son some strain.

Cos every day’s a different dance,
By masked magicians in their manses,
They boast bulletproof umbrellas,
How they know they will not tell us,
But they bank by the riverbed.

Oh saviours,
Commanders shoot into the sky so,
Follow suit strutting to their steps with each salute.
Go cajole Draco and waltz with the winners of the war,
Then be perplexed by the consequent pour.

Ammunition whistles to the whims of the western wind,
They will ride the wind back down,
But maybe not where you found them,
Just maybe right back into your mothers face,
Your mother’s face.
