149th Chorus

I keep falling in love

with my mother,

I dont want to hurt her

-Of all people to hurt.

 

Every time I see her

she's grown older

But her uniform always

amazes me

For its Dutch simplicity

And the Doll she is,

The doll-like way

she stands

Bowlegged in my dreams,

Waiting to serve me.

 

And I am only an Apache

Smoking Hashi

In old Cabashy

By the Lamp.
