Testo di 'Fatherhood' di CocoRosie

Beasts and demons good as gone
Broken soldier the devil been sold
You left me in my mothers womb
Teenage burn-out wounded too
My mother never enjoyed your lot
She warned me of your ghostly blocks
Twisted spine a poisoned web
You took my childhood before i had

Beasts and demons mystical
You showed me nature's miracle
Prayed beneath below a sky
Darkest ravens feathers
But in the end your children die
Filming you in heaven
Your soul it can never die
Even if you poison
Watch watch wacth watch watch them walk away
Watch watch wacth watch watch them walk away

So the moral of the story is
Magic doesn't save your kids
They need love to grow up
Like the purple mountains
You held my hand in a shoppping mall
This is all i'm counting
I'm broken blue and blasted
Now every man's a bastard
A black and a crystal crucifix
These shoes are big they almost fit
I gaze down at my mama's feet
I guess i got my mama's feet
All you babes i forget your name
You name the boy your namesake
Unicorn turn of a snake
What's my little sister's fate
Watch watch watch watch watch them walk away
Watch watch watch watch watch them walk away

So was this all a big mistake
Now i got my legacy
To live and die and to create
I suppose i should thank you
You never were the violent type
Only with your mentors
I used to hold your coffee cup
You taught me from the mentors
Of all the evils of the world
And only you can save it
Our mother's a witch with black hair
And only you can save her
You're the first born son the chosen one
What happened to messiah
Jesus always at your right hand
What happened to messiah

Watch watch watch watch watch them walk away
Watch watch watch watch watch them walk away
Watch watch watch watch watch them walk away
We watch watch we watch watch watch our fathers walk away
We watch watch we watch watch watch our fathers walk away
