+Mama, why did you do it?
+Mama, who drove you to it?
+Was it the pigs in grey suits persecuting you?
+Uncivil servants unconcerned at how they frighten you?
+Life is nothing much to lose
+It's just so lonely here without you
+Mama, why did you do it?
+Mama, who drove you to it?
+Spare priggish money-men who scared the life out of you
+Bailiffs with bad-breath - I will slit their throats for you
+Life is nothing much to lose
+It's just so lonely here without you, Mama
+Life is nothing much to lose
+It's just so lonely here without you
+So, we're gonna run to you
+We're gonna come to you
+We're gonna lie down beside you, Mama
