Stephen malkmus mama lyrics

Mama's in the kitchen with onions

Daddy's in the back with ol' Hank

Thinking 'bout the lasers and bunions

Talking disability ranks



No, we didn't have too much money

Just enough to make the dead ends meet



Me, I'm on the back of my hobby horse

Far away in some desert town

Miles from a civilization

Miles from a fortified town



Down in that basement it's sunny

We cannot stay down there for too long



Back then, it all seemed so funny

Toys were toys and boys were boys

The simple nights and easy joys, all right

Come out for another day



Upstairs mama's making some crepes, yeah

From a fancy recipe book

To me they just look like tortillas

Boy, that mama can cook



Soon, she will be calling for grub, yeah

I can't wait for such a sight this long



Back then, it all seemed so funny

Toys were toys and boys were boys

The easy nights and simple joys, all right

Come out for another day
