Hear her moan
groan, hear her
Feel her shiver
quiver, feel her
See her weep
seep, see herMother
groans
seeps
quivers
moans
weeps
shiversCan you smell the rot?
taste the blet?She dies for our pain
our misery, she dies
Mother loves
but she diesWe're her agony
children often are
our errors are her sorrows
her throes
And one day we'll slit her throat
She'll return the favor
