[Verse 1]

Momma can't turn off the light

She hasn't heard her baby come home

She's out with a crowd, she calls her congregation

There's secrets that sparkle that Momma don't know

Momma she brushstrokes the sky, with high hopes and mantras and sighs

And prays to all that's divine for a sign, that baby's not using her lifelines

[Chorus]

Candy canes crackle, her minds all a racket

She reaches for colours that don't got no name

Cowboys and gargoyles sing "Hey Macarena"

The devil and Moses are whispering shame

Mommas baby was never the same

[Verse 2]

Fates hands are cursed by mimicking muses

Baby burned far too brightly before she got old

Like Cobain, there's no gain in laying it all out there

Ya reach for red moons and now you're out cold

[Chorus]

Candy canes crackle, her minds all a racket

She reaches for colours that don't got no name

Cowboys and gargoyles sing "Hey Macarena"

The devil and Moses are whispering shame

Mommas baby was never the same
