Mother Revolution

Tori Amos - Mother Revolution



Lucky me

I guessed the kind of man

That you would turn out to be

Now I wish that I'd been wrong and then

I could remember to breathe

And all along the watchtower

The night horses and the black mares

Ready themselves for the outcome

For the strange times upon us




But what you didn't count on


Was another mother of


A mother revolution


But what you didn't count on


Was another mother of


A mother revolution


You could've have me


You could've have me


You could've have me


Right there beside you


You could've have me boy


You could've have me yeah


You could've have me


Right there beside you



A wife on loan in a cafe

In old El Paso

Next I go to

Seven Gates and my sister's Bass Bonanza

And all along her watchtower
