Jane Birkin - Mother Stands For Comfort - Текст песни

She knows that I've been doing something wrong,
But she won't say anything.
She thinks that I was with my friends yesterday,
But she won't mind me lying,
[crash of glass, and thuds/gunshots?]
Hmm, 'cause,

Mother stands for comfort.
Mother will hide the murderer.

It breaks the cage, and fear escapes and takes possession,
Just like a crowd rioting inside.
(Make me do this, make me do that, make me do this)
Make me do that.
Am I the cat that takes the bird?
To her the hunted, not the hunter.
Ah-oo, ah-oo ah.
Ah-oo, ah-oo ah.

Mother stands for comfort.
Mother will hide the murderer.
Mother,
Ah-oo, ah-oo ah.
Hides the madman.
Mother will stay mum.

Mother stands for comfort.
Mother,
Wahh!
Will stay mum.
Mother stands for comfort.
