lyrics

ALMOST A MOTHER

Falling through the trade,
was it magic or masquerade oh
all her best friends call her babe
what a surprise that
and we go time after time only looking for the right way in
but no one can stop her or know where to begin

Cat call, hissing sound
She left you on read for days
And all this messing around
Shook up all the gossip girls
They say she is not a lot fun
always half here and half on the run
and i heard shes almost a mother

Toxic, talk about
dresses the part and says how much
she's freaked out, cos her dreams are the strangest
in a toast to the crowds
'this is for the lover boys and all the girls that put out'
all so vaguely dangerous

Cat call, hissing sound
She left you on read for days
And all this messing around
Shook up all the gossip girls
They say she is not a lot fun
always half here and half on the run
and i heard she's almost a mother

Cat call, hissing sound
She left you on read for days
And all this messing around
Shook up all the gossip girls
They say she is not a lot fun
always half here and half on the run
and i heard she's almost a mother
