[Verse 1:]
She borders the pavement
Flanks avenues
Parades pass
White glove attended by
[Chorus:]
My mother the war
[Verse 2:]
She'll raise a shaft
Lift a banner
Toss a rose
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:]
She knows every neighbor
Chats at their doors
Compare
Econo-size electric appliances
Come share tea
And a seat by my
Cradle with
[Chorus]
[Verse 4:]
Forsaken vigil
Three years each tour
Hands of god enfold him
Prayed mother of war
Haunt a doorway
Beg a postman
Is there word
For mother the war
5 black stars
In bitter defiance
She's spiting the corps
Wet a brood
Short league for combat
[Chorus]
[Verse 5:]
Well acquainted
With sorrow
With grief
[Chorus]
[Verse 5:]
Folded lace
Carrion
Blood soaked robes
Folded lace
Carrion
Blood soaked
Shroud
[Chorus]
