Mother's Keeper

from Mother's Keeper by The Clydes

lyrics

Who will keep your mother's keeper
While you batten and flatten down the wind?
And who will sell her to the reaper?
Your games are all too late to amend

You thought
The world was
Endless
And open
But she's getting older
And you're still a boulder
Trying to control her
With your chin on your shoulder

And who will be your mother's keeper?
Nasty little habits do you in
You will feed her to the reaper
And soon you'll be following her in

All that cash you
Blindly burned through
Will it buy you a new day?
Faces you don't have to lie to?
The papers will feature
The man called your mother's keeper
The papers will feature
The man called your mother's keeper
They won't beat you deeper
You'll be your mother's keeper
They won't beat you deeper
You'll be your mother's keeper

And who are you?
Who are you?
