I woke after dark today
I think I've done something to upset the stars again
The Moon won't return my calls
But I deserve it
I deserve it all
And if you told me
That it would be this hard
I never would have let my mother put me down
I'd make her hold me
And woe betide if one of my
Selfish feet touched the ground
My plants are mad at me they say
I'm an unfit mother and they should be taken away
My darlings, I'm so sorry
That's all on me
It was I who made you stay
Cause I was lonely
My mother owed me one
To feel this way
I deserve it all the same
And if you told me
That it would be this hard
I never would have let my mother put me down
I'd make her hold me
And woe betide if one of my
Selfish feet touched the ground
And if you told me
That life would go downhill
I would have made her hold me
Till her bones were tired, better her than I
And woe betide that one of my
Selfish feet touched the ground
