Mama Lyrics - Smashing Pumpkins

Mama, you're on my mind 

A stitch upon my coda 

Play on the world's grand design 

I think you know 

I think you're sure that you know that 

Butterflies don't get old 

And I don't get so young anymore 

What a shame 

The big ideas 

And lost ideals, it's a show 

I must appear in control 

Mama 

Mama 

The show at all 

They're burning books outside of 

What was it that you said? 

And to the walls 

Let the spirit gather up and 

Set us a flame for 

Year to year, there's no one here but us 

What I'm ask 

The ears to the ground and the fingers on the pulse of the pain 

Oh it's worse than change

Oh what do they want with us 

Oh mama 

Mama 

What is it that they want with us and all of our abuse 

Oh what's the use to protect 

Mama, is only you 

You're a dancer from the mirrors of 

Lie and with restraint 

This quiet warmth 

I've got my faith restored by the sway of the trees 

That sway in time to one more rhyme of my curse 

But what it's worth 

I count you out and still you count me in 

To answer your final bell 

Mama 

Mama 

But why do they care about us 

Mama 

Mama 

They knock and knock 

But I don't answer the door 

Mama 

Mama 

Cuz I'm bored and we're not alone
