'75: My Mama Ain't (75:我的妈妈不是) - The Magnetic Fields (磁场)[00:00:00]
Written by:Stephin Merritt[00:00:01]
My mama ain't no madam[00:00:19]
Massage is all they do[00:00:22]
Law troubles sure she's had 'em[00:00:25]
Been stopped for speeding too[00:00:29]
She says she ain't no hippy[00:00:35]
I guess beatnik's the word[00:00:38]
She says the world is trippy[00:00:41]
Enough drugs are absurd[00:00:45]
She was an English teacher[00:00:51]
Her master's was in ed[00:00:55]
But she taught Harriet Beecher[00:00:58]
Stowe and got fired[00:01:01]
My mama ain't no loony[00:01:08]
But she likes joining cults[00:01:11]
She could've been a moonie[00:01:14]
With similar results[00:01:17]
She gave away her monies[00:01:24]
And all our furnishings[00:01:27]
To benefit the bunnies[00:01:30]
And all sentient beings[00:01:33]
She flirted once with yoga[00:01:40]
We stayed on an ashram[00:01:43]
The guru wore a toga[00:01:46]
In Saratoga[00:01:50]
We chanted[00:01:52]
My mama ain't no nudist[00:01:56]
Except around the pool[00:01:59]
She's a Tibetan Buddhist[00:02:03]
Like catholic only cool[00:02:06]
Now mama's going Vedanta[00:02:13]
A similar belief[00:02:15]
Her friends look more like Santa[00:02:19]
And much less like Gurdjieff[00:02:22]
My mom's a little flaky[00:02:28]
Believes in everything[00:02:32]
From auras to zen reiki[00:02:35]
Except crystal healing[00:02:38]
She draws the line at crystal healing[00:02:42]
