Oh Mary
by J. P. DaviesOh Mary,
kneel and scrape the dust from angels feet,
you know you've never had it made,
no you've never had it made.
It's made you.
Princess,
climbs a broken ladder
every step a gamble she plays
you know you've never had it made
no you've never had it made.
It made you...
Want to be,
alone inside your room
Walls surrounding you
It's made you tamper-proof
It's always making you.
Little child,
tip-toes to the window
but it's wrapped in sheets of grey,
You've never had it made
no you've never had it made.
It's made you
So little one,
If your view should seldom change
And darkness makes it fade
you've never had it made
no, never had it made.
It made you... 04/17/2005 Author's Note: Song
