Testo Mother Earth - John Peel Session 28/3/79 - Crass
Testo della canzone Mother Earth - John Peel Session 28/3/79 (Crass), tratta dall'album Stations of the Crass (Crassical Collection)
On Tuesday, June the 16th, 1964, at 7:45pm, seven months after the
Disappearance of John Gilbride, Kenneth Bennett, schoolboy, set out
With his mother from his home at 29 Hesmond Street, not to be
Confused with the Higley home, 20 Eden Street, a mile and a half
Away. He was going to stay the night on Morgan Street with his
Maternal grandmother, to whom he was attached as John Gilbride
Had been to his. Although it was a fine summer evening, and only
A half a mile walk, his mother felt it wise to accompany him to
The corner of Vickers East/Compton Road where he had only a few
Hundred yards to go to the length of a couple of short streets
She waved at him and called, "Love to grass." One of the short
Streets was West Morgan Street, the brightest street. The boy did
Not arrive and was left in anguish. His mother's first words the
Next morning were that he was short-sighted and hadn't had his
Spectacles on, and had drank one glass from his water glass. She
Wanted Peter Brougham to take him home from his door for a long talk
She's the anti-mother, mother, mother is the cure
She's the anti-mother, mother, mother is the cure
It's Martha Higley on the cover
Your very own sweet anti-mother
Here she is on the face of a star
On the type of place you wish you were
Everywhere she's held is what she's said
Now one last time you'll see her dead
Go to her apartment and see where she is
Trust that you are in what you want to be
There's something in her face that brings you pain
You just can't wait to piss on her grave
The thing that's always on my countenance is now
You and you wish that you're a me now
So you can better put on what she's in
You do it to her, you see her dead
What is the difference between her and you?
So that you would never know an answer to me
Don't you see the violence that's going on you?
They see those inclusive, happy by fools
Who's their peer? I just hear the truth
Things that kill others, maybe something else
She's the anti-mother, mother, mother is the cure
She's the anti-mother, mother, mother is the cure
That single mug shot from the past
Ensures your fantasies will last and last
Give you the chance to air your hate
But she got there first, you were too late
Only if you try and move to other streets
The parade for the president puts us on the brink
And you didn't keep the people you're thinking after last
You said a woman lives in you, you'll never get enough
So you think the story of life you can make yourself believe
You are so much better than us
But you won't let your guilt lie in here
She's the anti-mother, mother, mother is the cure
She's the anti-mother, mother, mother is the cure
She's the anti-mother, mother, mother is the cure
She's the anti-mother, mother, mother is the cure
On Tuesday, June the 16th, 1964, at 7:45pm, seven months after the
Disappearance of John Gilbride, Kenneth Bennett, schoolboy, set
Out with his mother from his home at 29 Hesmond Street, not to be
Confused with the Higley home, 20 Eden Street, a mile and a half away
