Mother's Getting Weaker Songtext / Lyric

Tonight would be

The last night that we had our tea

That bloody tea

Which sent us into ecstasy

Yesterday Mother complained

Feeling dizzy, all in pain



Mother's getting weaker

Looking paler day by day



As morning came

She could not make it out of bed

And Grandma's spell

Was getting straight into her head

Not a single word

She didn't seem to be alive



Getting weaker

Looking paler day by day






Then Missy came in and she led me by the hand

I didn't want to go

Oh but I should have known

Mother was barely conscious

Why should I care?

Just looking forward to the next ordeal



I think I heard

My sister begging me to stay

She gave me the phone

So I could call someone for help

I simply let go of her hand

Then I cut the wire



Missy was crying

As I left them both behind

And Mother's getting weaker

Missy shouted at my back

"I hate You"
