Lyrics
Holy Mother Mary
Words and Music by Gordon Moir and George Paterson
Wednesday morning, coming round
I?m being dropped off in a different part of town
From the last one I recall
In my own story, I?ve been typecast
If I get away with it this time
It?ll be the last time
But I?ve heard that song before
Feels like I?m gonna let you down
Sometimes I?m my own worst enemy
Like the songs says,
?I?m going Underground?
Holy Mother Mary
Saint Jude?s given up on me
Holy Mother Mary
Pray for me
I was a hopeless cynic
Aimless, unless something?s in it
Holy Mother Mary
Pray for me
Turn the key, open the door
Think of a story I haven?t told before
Or one I haven?t told that day
Only lying with you ?cause I need some rest
But when I feel your warm tears rolling down my chest
I know, that?s the price I?ve got to pay
Feels like I?m a total waste
But temptation?s a real big lonely place
As dark as lines that are etched across my face
Holy Mother Mary
Saint Jude?s given up on me
Holy Mother Mary
Pray for me
I am a hopeless sinner
Bad news lottery winner
Holy Mother Mary
Pray for me
Holy Mother Mary
Saint Jude?s given up on me
Holy Mother Mary
Pray for me
I was a hopeless cynic
Aimless, unless something?s in it
Holy Mother Mary
Pray for me
