My Mom

Have you ever had a dream that your favorite baby's drowning
And you grab him by his sweater sleeve
Pull him up onto the ground
And you can hear the water slosh
Around inside his tiny gut
You push his belly up and down
But he can't cough the water up
Suddenly a flood comes out his mouth
Til there is nothing left
Inside of him he's empty now
There isn't even one small breath
And he goes limp in your arms
All the peoples' mouths are moving
All you hear are car alarms
And you wake up and start to cry
I will lose my shit if even one more person dies
So please don't die

My mom's sick she's in a hospital bed
I've got a word for all you ghosts in her head
And all you skeletons in her closet
Leave her alone
Leave her alone
Leave her alone
Please because my mom needs you gone
My mom needs you gone
As long as she is haunted she'll never get strong
My mom needs you gone

You traded all your paper clips for a soap dish
That way your best friends rubber ducky wouldn't slip and slide away
But he traded his rubber duck for a cigar box
To place your paper clips in
Mr. Hooper came to say
Oh my dear friends Bert and Ernie
Here's a little something for each of you from me
Here are your paper clips and here is your rubber ducky
How could I ignore such selfless generosity

the human body's made up of good and bad bacteria
But the antibiotics and the antibacterials are killin' all the good ones
And the bad ones just get stronger
And become super infections
It's harder to destroy them
And it's harder to detect them
And there's something in her blood
And there's something in her leg
And there's something in her brain

My mom's sick she's in a hospital bed
I've got a word for all you ghosts in her head
And all you skeletons in her closet
Leave her alone
Leave her alone
Leave her alone
Leave her alone
Leave her alone
Leave her alone
Leave her alone
Please because my mom needs you gone
My mom needs you gone
My mom needs you gone
As long as she is haunted she'll never get strong
My mom needs you gone
My mom needs you gone
My mom needs you gone
My mom needs you gone
