Mamma

AlphabetLyrics.com


Woman, am I the human
Am I the depot
When the train rolls in
Mamma, am I the human
Am I the crowbars
When the door's kicked in
Woman, am I the children
Watching the spacemen from the television.

Mamma, am I the caveman
Am I the buffalo
Am I the dried up bones.

Mamma, did you leave my brother alone
Mamma, did you leave my brother alone
Mamma, did you leave my brother alone
You didn't leave him alive
Mamma, how was he supposed to survive.

Woman, am I the human
Am I the turbulence
Under the wingspan
Mamma, am I still batman
Am I the sirens
Am I the ambulance
Woman, am I too weak then
Shove all the rocks all
In lines with the plowman.

Mamma, am I the snowman
Am I the rainfall
And the sky when it's freezing.

Mamma, did you leave my brother to die
Mamma, did you leave my brother to die
Mamma, did you leave my brother to die
You didn't leave him alive
Mamma, how was he supposed to survive.

Without a woman
Without a brother
Without a sister
Without a father
Without a mother
Oh, my brother
How was he supposed to survive.

My armour
How was he supposed to survive.
