Mother OJesus
I've got a song that could make you feel better
But this isn't it, I will write you a note
And explain how the family needs you at home
With your clothes and your money and news of your life

And then we'll fill you in on the times that we've had
And the things that you missed ah you know there ain't much
Just the Mother O'Jesus and she's building a home
For the children of the lie

Dave got a cold and Sally got married
And your dad built a car out of virtually nothing
But I'm spoiling the fun so I'll save all the rest
For the day you get home from being away

And the garden's so pretty this time of year
But it ain't gonna last
All the colors disappear and get muddied and washed out
And people get tired of waiting around like this

And oh what she's done with the kids its like a miracle
Nothing gets done when you're putting people down
Everyone loves you here
And oh what she's done with the kids its like a miracle
Nothing gets fixed by putting people down
Everyone loves you here

I had a song that could have made you feel better
But that wasn't it, look I'll send you a tape
You can wait for a while and we'll save it all up
For the day you come home and start freaking us out

We haven't felt better than this for a while
But it ain't gonna last, we're outstripping the style
And it won't be complete without you in the pack
Aw, say ya ain't coming home

And oh what she's done with the kids is like a miracle
Nothing gets done when you're putting people down
Everyone loves you, yeah

And oh what she's done with the kids is like a miracle
Nothing gets fixed by putting people down
Everyone loves you, yeah

Everyone loves you, yeah
