[Verse 1]
Childless Earth mother;
Self-soothing, slow mover;
In a house that isn’t yours.
Faithful to a fault;
You know something that I don’t;
The meaning in the numbers.
But what is it you’re hiding?
A book without an ending;
Will I ever really know you?
Wrap me in your cardigan;
My heavy-banged heroine;
I know we belong together.
[Refrain]
Cover my feet in lavender;
and tell me that I’m good.
Dance away the devil;
We’re so close to sainthood.
The cameras feel like vampires;
But it feels like home with you.
They can take our dignity;
But they can’t tell us what to do.
Ohhh, Angela. (x2)
[Verse 2]
You’re stalwart and free;
Armed with a cup of tea;
You don’t need anybody.
Bless me with your warnings;
Shower me with your stories;
Break the silence please.
Soft mouth and steely eyes;
The corporations feed us lies;
But I could never lie to you.
Live off the land and stay kind;
It will all be better this time;
I promise I’ll never leave.
[Refrain]
Cover my feet in lavender;
and tell me that I’m good.
Dance away the devil;
We’re so close to sainthood.
The cameras feel like vampires;
But it feels like home with you.
They can take our dignity;
But they can’t tell us what to do.
Ohhh, Angela. (x2)
